TRAVEL TO
New York, December 1983. The city is electrified, the air thick with anticipation: a landmark exhibition is about to open at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art – a retrospective celebrating the work of legendary designer, Yves Saint Laurent. It is a historic moment. A celebration not just of fashion, but of a visionary. The first time a living couturier is bestowed this honour. Orchestrated by Diana Vreeland, the exhibition comprises a carefully curated selection of 150 pieces. Unveiled this evening, a glamorous gala fills the museum. The black-tie dinner-dance draws a dazzling array of guests, from fashion insiders like Bill Blass and Jacqueline de Ribes to socialites such as Tatiana Liberman and Marie-Hélène de Rothschild, as well as artists like Louise Nevelson – each an icon in their own right, awaiting a night unlike any other.
THE OLFACTION
Amidst the glittering throng of over 800 guests, the atmosphere crackles with a unique energy. The clinking of champagne glasses mingles with hushed whispers of admiration. An elegant note with a hint of YSL frisson perfumes the air – the rich, sophisticated aroma of fine tobacco, a subtle marker of revelry and Yves Saint Laurent’s audacious character. Its captivating scent, intertwining with the celebratory spirit and the thrill of the evening, evokes the sumptuous atmosphere of an unforgettable night.
83 NEW YORK bottles the intoxicating aura of this bygone era, a trip to a night of high-stakes glamour and artistic expression. The inherent balminess of tobacco enhanced by the aromatic freshness of clary sage. A touch of honey accord adds a liquorous shimmer, reminiscent of the champagne flowing freely amidst the celebration. Ambery cistus labdanum absolute and deep, woody patchouli oil anchor the blend in Eighties glamour.
