Launched in 2015 by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou as part of YSL's exclusive Le Vestiaire des Parfums collection, this Tuxedo (TYPE) impression is a tribute to the most iconic piece in the Yves Saint Laurent wardrobe—the tuxedo . First introduced in the Autumn-Winter 1966 collection, the tuxedo reimagined a masculine garment for female silhouettes, becoming an emblem of empowerment, androgyny, and rebellion . This fragrance captures that same spirit of sharp elegance and bold contrast.
The opening is a fresh, aromatic burst of violet leaf, bergamot, and coriander. The violet leaf is crisp and slightly powdery; the bergamot adds a sparkling, sun-drenched brightness; the coriander provides a fresh, herbal warmth. This is an entrance that is both refined and unexpectedly bright .
The heart unfolds with an elegant, spicy-floral blend of rose, black pepper, and lily of the valley. The rose adds a velvety, romantic softness; the black pepper delivers a sharp, incisive bite; the lily of the valley contributes a delicate, green freshness. Like a shiny satin lapel against the matte fabric of a tuxedo, the bright pepper and coriander shed light on the darker materials beneath .
The drydown is deep, sensual, and unforgettable. A masterful base of patchouli, ambergris, and Bourbon vanilla creates a smooth, addictive foundation. The patchouli is earthy, smoky, and woody—crafted in Grasse to enhance its most sophisticated facets . The ambergris accord adds a warm, mineral sensuality that hints at the nude skin beneath the suit . The Bourbon vanilla lends a creamy, golden sweetness.
This is a fragrance of extraordinary duality—fresh yet deep, spicy yet smooth, elegant yet edgy. It has been described as "incisively seductive" for those who are not afraid to embrace the power of YSL sharpness . Perfect for evenings and cooler months, it commands attention with a powerful yet elegant projection .
Performance:
Longevity is exceptional, with 8 to 10 hours on skin. Sillage is moderate to strong—this fragrance leaves a captivating, memorable trail. One to two sprays are sufficient. Best worn in autumn and winter, for evening events, formal occasions, and any moment you want to feel sophisticated, confident, and unforgettable.
Who is this for?
For those who appreciate sharp, elegant fragrances with a bold, contemporary edge. For admirers of YSL's iconic Le Vestiaire collection. For anyone who believes that true style—like a perfectly tailored tuxedo—is both timeless and empowering.
