Libre, meaning “free” in French, is Yves Saint Laurent’s olfactory manifesto of femininity and freedom. Released in 2019, this oriental fougere fragrance reimagines traditional masculine elements with a feminine twist, celebrating women who live by their own rules.
The scent opens with a vibrant and aromatic burst of lavender, blended with juicy mandarin orange, black currant, and petitgrain. The heart reveals a radiant floral bouquet of orange blossom, jasmine, and more lavender, giving the composition its signature balance between softness and structure.
The base wraps the fragrance in warm sensuality, combining Madagascar vanilla, musk, cedarwood, and the salty allure of ambergris. The result is a luxurious, powerful, and seductive scent that radiates confidence.
Libre is a perfect choice for the modern woman who is bold, elegant, and unapologetically herself.
