Libre Intense

Libre Intense by Yves Saint Laurent is a warm, gourmand fragrance that leans heavily into vanilla and tonka bean, creating a deeply sensual and cozy aura. The opening unfolds with crisp citrus notes of bergamot and mandarin orange, paired with aromatic lavender that gives an initial fresh, slightly herbal character. This transitions into a lush, creamy floral heart with jasmine sambac, orange blossom, and orchid, all gently rounded by the richness of Madagascar vanilla, which becomes increasingly prominent as the fragrance dries down. The base adds depth with warm ambergris, vetiver, and a velvety tonka bean, creating a scent that feels both luxurious and intimate. It performs impressively: the sillage is strong and noticeable, lingering for many hours, and it projects with confidence, making it a standout choice for evening wear. The overall impression is elegant, mature, and bold—ideal for cool weather, nighttime events, or anyone seeking a signature scent that commands attention. It’s not a simple vanilla perfume; it evolves noticeably and offers a balanced blend of sweetness, floral complexity, and aromatic depth.
