Lavalliere

Parfumour's Interpretation of Yves Saint Laurent Lavalliere

Lavalliere is a sophisticated fig and rose fragrance, and our version keeps that balance: a soft fig opening, a rose and geranium heart, and a clean woody musk base.

The Story Behind the Scent

Lavalliere sits in YSL's Le Vestiaire des Parfums, a collection of exclusive, higher end scents named after signature pieces of clothing. Named after the soft bow tie, it was designed to feel refined and androgynous.

Our interpretation follows that character. We keep the fig soft and green, the rose and geranium elegant in the middle, and the base clean and woody, so it reads as chic and easy to wear for anyone.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original is an exclusive YSL release sold at high niche pricing. We build ours at a high perfume oil concentration and sell direct, so you get the same character for a fraction of the price.

Who It's For

It suits anyone who loves an elegant, unisex fig and rose scent and wants an exclusive style fragrance without the exclusive price.

Top notes: Fig, Bergamot

Heart notes: Rose, Geranium

Base notes: Fig, Cedarwood, Musk

It opens soft and green, with a gentle fig note and a touch of bergamot giving a fresh, slightly milky lift.

The heart is elegant and floral, with rose and geranium balancing softness and a green, aromatic edge.

The base stays clean and refined, with woody fig, cedar and musk giving a smooth, unisex finish.

How close is it to Yves Saint Laurent Lavalliere?

It stays close to the chic fig and rose character of the original. It is our own interpretation rather than a copy, but the impression is very familiar.

How can it cost so much less than Yves Saint Laurent Lavalliere?

Most of the price of a niche fragrance goes to the brand name, packaging and retail markup rather than the liquid itself. We put our budget into the scent and sell direct, so you get a comparable experience for a fraction of the price.

Is this the same perfume as Yves Saint Laurent Lavalliere?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style at a much lower price.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is unisex and works well for daytime and evening across most seasons.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
