TUXEDO EAU DE PARFUM SHARP PATCHOULI

THE OLFACTION
At the heart of Tuxedo lies patchouli, its earthy, woody depths masterfully sculpted by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou to create a sleek, unforgettable olfactory silhouette. This iconic material was crafted in Grasse to enhance the most sensuous, sophisticated facets of its deep, dark woodiness. “This heart of patchouli forms the core of the fragrance, bringing verticality and style – two signature elements of the tuxedo”, explains the perfumer, Juliette Karagueuzoglou. Like a shiny satin lapel against a tuxedo’s matte grain de poudre fabric, the bright bite of black pepper and the fresh flash of coriander shed light on the dark material. A magnetic ambergris accord hints at the nude skin beneath the suit. An incisively seductive fragrance for those who are not afraid to embrace the power of YSL sharpness.

THE INSPIRATION
Of all Monsieur Saint Laurent’s pieces, it is the most iconic. Introduced in his Autumn-Winter 1966 collection, the tuxedo reimagined a highly symbolic outfit of the masculine wardrobe: the smoking jacket, once worn to preserve gentlemen’s suits from the scent of cigars. Adapting its sharp tailoring to female silhouettes, Mr. Saint Laurent created the first evening pantsuit for women. Launched in the ready-to-wear SAINT LAURENT rive gauche line, it was a success. This historically masculine garment perfectly incarnates the YSL style with its sharp tailoring, minimalist design, and effortless chicness. It wasn't about fussy embellishments or fleeting trends but about timeless elegance and confident simplicity. This eminent couture garment was not only a fashion statement, but a cultural touchstone. An emblem of empowerment, androgyny and rebellion, that made it a synonym of the YSL spirit.
