Yves Saint Laurent Y Eau de Toilette

The fragrance itself was fine, but the courier crushed the outer box and one cap arrived cracked. The seller arranged a replacement quickly, so the low score is for delivery. I also checked it on a paper strip during wear 2, and the impression stayed consistent.

The parcel was delayed for several days and tracking barely moved. The seller replied patiently and added a sample later. The scent was okay; logistics lowered the score. I also checked it on a paper strip during wear 2, and the value still made sense.

This was a blind buy, so I sprayed lightly at home before wearing it outside. I like that it feels clean rather than sugary or heavy. For a blind buy, this was a very good surprise. I also checked it on my jacket cuff during wear 2, and it remained comfortable up close.

What I like most is the middle stage. Sage, geranium, violet leaf does not smell flat or synthetic on me, and it makes Yves Saint Laurent Y Eau de Toilette feel more expensive than the price.

I bought it as a small gift and tested one spray first. It smells clean and presentable, not too sweet and not too strong.
