Elle by Yves Saint Laurent is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. Elle was launched in 2007. Elle was created by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud and Olivier Cresp. Top notes are Litchi, Peony and Amalfi Lemon; middle notes are Pink Pepper, Rose, Jasmine and Freesia; base notes are Patchouli, Vetiver, Cedar and Ambrette (Musk Mallow). This beautiful passionate perfume by the house of Yves Saint Laurent arrived on the market in Autumn 2007, hoping to win the hearts of young and modern girls. Tender and distinguished fragrance Elle, designed by two renowned noses, Olivier Cresp and Jacques Cavallier, brings joy with luminous crisp notes of lemon and litchi on peony petals. Its heart unites Jasmine Sambac, rose and freesia, with youthful accords of pink berries, while the base caresses woody notes of vetiver, patchouli, and cedar. The face of the fragrance is young and extravagant 18-year-old Coco Rocha. The advertising campaign, as well as the bottle design, can say a lot about the perfume: it is a young, but pretentious fragrance within the frame of the "modern classic."

Opening is a blast of lemon and pepper. The rose and patchouli shine in the dry down. A sharp, spicy, lemon zest covered rose. It's loud and sexual, certainly not suited for the faint of heart. It's a scent I would find lovely on the woman that it suits, but it's one of those fragrances that feels like it's wearing me instead of the other way around. This is my favourite warm weather scent! I don't reach for it now that it's winter. Its also VERY strong, so spray sparingly. Its a peppery peony and patchouli scent. Very sexy. This is my most complimented perfume. I love and am sad its discontinued Maybe Elle has been a "love" for me since the first day I entered Fragrantica. But I actually smelled it in a shop once, only 18 years ago, and I remember it as a very feminine scent, slightly sweet and powdery. I wonder if I've drifted away from Elle's subject matter over time, just as platonic love drifts further and further away from the truth, or if my perception of scent has changed. After 18 years, I picked up a small decant of Elle and it bears not the slightest resemblance to the scent I remember. I came across a patchouli-based, fruity-floral fragrance. It’s fresh but definitely with character and suitable for all four seasons. When I looked at the notes, I thought I might tried the intense version of the Elle before. Honestly, the first time I sprayed this one, it disappointed me. Then this morning I woke up and wanted to wear it. I think it's very suitable to be a signature fragrance, especially for people over...
