MUSE EAU DE PARFUM
The ink that drew Mr. Saint Laurent’s iconic silhouettes in a woody musky, floral and vanilla scent.
THE OLFACTION
Ink is the enigmatic accord chosen for Le Vestiaire des Parfums’s new scented icon: MUSE. A strikingly streamlined composition crafted by Parfumeur Principal Marie Salamagne : "The ink reveals enigmatic woody notes, intimate and elegant smoky facets. It veils the skin in subtle dark, metallic tones, slightly iris-y, earthy. For me, the ink takes on the colors of creativity and mystery. It stimulates the imagination."
The dusky note is etched onto a precious ingredient Marie Salamagne compares both to paper and skin, for its softness. Carnal and supple, iris concrete offers powdery, buttery, woody and leather facets for a perfect blend. Empowered by a sensual Bourbon vanilla absolute pod, another sublime material crafted for YSL. The result is what Marie Salamagne calls “a skin scent that explodes”.
A fragrant tattoo with an impressive trail, as distinctive and memorable as YSL’s fascinating muses.
THE INSPIRATION
Elegant. Empowered. Androgynous. Yves Saint Laurent’s muses were like no other. Inspiring silhouettes: artists, models, actors, friends and loved ones, starting with his mother, who embodied the couturier’s style, spirit and ideal. At the heart of every Yves Saint Laurent creation lies the inspiration he drew from his muses. Their unique energy ignited Monsieur Saint Laurent’s imagination and shaped his designs. More than just inspirations, they were the living embodiment of his vision. A vision that liberated the silhouette, redefined beauty, and ultimately, transformed an era. His muses were the epitome of the YSL style.
They exuded a nonchalant elegance, a sense of effortless sophistication that defied trends. They were often seen in simple yet impeccably tailored pieces, effortlessly donned tuxedos, embodying a chic silhouette. They were also the embodiment of the YSL spirit. They moved through the world with a captivating blend of purpose and individuality. They exuded an effortless confidence that defied convention by embracing androgyny, bold style choices.
