i picked this up when it hit fragrancebuy for like $120 and i actually love it, it mixes really well with my skin and projects and lasts the same way sauvage elixir does for other people 😭🙏 im so glad because y edp did not last long on my skin whatsoever, so for me i was able to justify the purchase thankfully

It’s a perfect summer scent. It’s the second best to y edp however ingredients in elixir are more of higher quality undoubtedly. Similar dry down to blue talisman. Excellent summer fragrance EVEN nicer and better than EDP
@ChadSecrets3 ай бұрын
I would not say this has high quality ingredients regardless of what they say in their marketing. But to each their own! Its not bad but its my least favorite ysl fragrance so far

I'm wearing this as I write this and I can say, there is no world where this is worth it, even if it was at discounters. Decent performance, I actually like the woodiness, but you can get more complex, stronger performers for a better price.

YSL EDP intense for the win fk that price plus one time I washed my shirt in the laundry and still smelled YSL intense on it buy the 100ML of Intense and another 100ML of YSL EDT if you want a fresher but still musky man scent I have both and wearing the EDT today

@@ChadSecretsthe thing is that the other fragrances got the same price tag. And if you never have tried ysl y line I think it would be than more interesting to know which one more suggestible. However I tried it meanwhile and I also bought real oud to compare and see if there is really any oud in it and I can definitely say yes. I mean how do you not smell any oud in the drydown ?

Good videos you release but I have to disagree with you on this one the y elixir for me is the best last long 10plus hours and project of of my skin and is highly complimented by young ladies off of my skin I get citrus soapy woody sweet musky and slightly powdery notes that all get me notice and attention from the ladies the Sauvage Elixir is gear more towards cooler climate and smells mature the best part of the Sauvage Elixir is the first hour where it’s fruity and masculine after that it smells like and old man and kitchen season just like how asad smells. For me this is the best Ysl y along with Prada ocean edt Sauvage edp Mont Blanc explorer bout everybody chemistry is different and we all live different parts of the world different climate I live in a hot climate nothing ever below 70 degrees the new Ysl y elixir is a job well done for us in the warmer climate and cobalt elixir
