The eau de parfum reading of Y — the same crisp aromatic outline as the toilette, carried on a deeper woody base.

Highlights

✓Apple, bergamot and ginger open it crisp and lightly spiced — the signature that made Y recognisable in the first place.
✓Sage, juniper and geranium at the heart keep the middle clean and aromatic, which is what makes it office-appropriate.
✓Amberwood, tonka bean, cedar, vetiver and olibanum in the base are five woody and resinous materials, and where the extra weight over the toilette comes from.
✓Eau de Parfum, not Eau de Toilette — concentration is the decision here, and this is the fuller, woodier of the pair.
✓3.4 oz / 100 ml in one size — the full-size bottle.

Y is Yves Saint Laurent's clean-cut masculine pillar, and the eau de parfum is where it stops being purely fresh: vetiver and olibanum give the dry-down a smoky, mineral edge the lighter version does not have. That makes it the bottle to pick if you want the working week and the evening covered by one scent.

Resins keep developing on skin for a good half hour, so spray, wait, and judge it then rather than at the counter. Y Eau de Toilette is the same name at the lighter strength if you would rather the citrus stayed in front. More in Fragrance and Men's.

Eau de Parfum, 3.4 oz / 100 ml, one size. Store upright, out of direct sunlight and away from heat. Notes — top: apple, bergamot, ginger. Heart: sage, juniper, geranium. Base: amberwood, tonka bean, cedar, vetiver, olibanum.
