La Nuit De L'Homme Yves Saint Laurent Le Parfum

Mostly sharp and peppery, more like cracked pepper than baking spice. Underneath that, juicy and ripe, like peach, berry or apple.

It opens on pepper, anise and bergamot, moves through fruity notes, lavender and french labdanum, and settles on vanille, patchouli and vetyver.

• pepper: dry and warming, like freshly cracked black pepper
• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
