Le Vestiaire des Parfums is an avant-garde haute-perfumery wardrobe, tailor-made for those who boldly break with convention. Born from the legacy of a visionary who never played by the rules, the collection distills Yves Saint Laurent’s revolutionary designs, materials, and inspirations into exclusive fragrances. Now, *Les Extraits de Parfum* elevate the collection to new heights with a trio of precious olfactory *Grands Crus*.
Pushing the boundaries of olfactory artistry, these new *Extraits* employ the traditional *emboisement* technique—inspired by the peerless craftsmanship of French cognac distillers. This exclusive maceration process infuses the fragrances with the rich, warm facets of French oak. Conceived as a tribute to pivotal milestones in Monsieur Saint Laurent’s legendary career, the *Extraits* reinterpret three of the most iconic scents from Le Vestiaire des Parfums as deeper, more refined, and highly concentrated creations. These three new *Extraits de Parfum* are a true asset to the collections of discerning fragrance connoisseurs.
MUSE EXTRAIT DE PARFUM 62 INK by Marie Salamagne (dsm-firmenich) celebrates the fashion house’s very first collection from 1962. Muse pays homage to Monsieur Saint Laurent’s debut couture collection of 1962, which revealed the first of his eternal muses. Radically enriched with oakwood, the fragrance’s signature ink accord unveils smoky, woody, and gourmand facets that evoke the delicate warmth of her skin.
TUXEDO EXTRAIT DE PARFUM 66 PATCHOULI by Juliette Karagueuzoglou (IFF) honors the couturier’s revolutionary black tuxedo. Unveiled by the couturier in 1966, the tuxedo defines the essence of Monsieur Saint Laurent’s emancipatory spirit. TUXEDO Extrait de Parfum 66 is an olfactory tribute to this iconic garment. Its signature patchouli, macerated with oakwood, presents itself as deep and black as Monsieur Saint Laurent’s favorite color.
BLOUSE EXTRAIT DE PARFUM 68 ROSE
by Quentin Bisch (Givaudan) is an olfactory tribute to Monsieur Saint Laurent’s legendary sheer blouse—designed in 1968 at the height of the sexual revolution—which revealed the body in a radical, rebellious couture gesture. BLOUSE Extrait de Parfum 68 reveals a pure, unveiled rose, elevated by oakwood maceration to release fresh, botanical facets.
