Extremely feminine but not "shouted" bouquet : The neroli note is soft, round, warm, not too vibrant. A well balanced classy daily scent

Technically for woman, but I like to wear it despite I'm a man.

This is my first favourite perfume. I don’t have my original bottle anymore but I might have to get a 100 mL soon. Classic perfume

It appeals more to men by Asian standards, actually in South Korea and Japan, the main users of it are men in their 20s and 30s.

Not as airy as the notes suggest. Very dense thick floral scent. The sillage is quite pleasant but up close almost annoying

This fragrance for me is not floral, but rather sweet-gourmand. While I like the gourmand part - which was well done it is too sweet for me.

Wished it performed and projected better
Libre EDP it's a quite soapy, clean, fresh, florally scent. I like the dry down way more than the opening as it can be too citrusy and sharp at times. The lavender can be a bit overwhelming as well and it sort of gives the fragrance a certain "masculine" edge that might be exacerbated in certain skin chemistries and might not be everyone's taste because of it, however I personally love that androgynous edge and find it quite exquisite and unique.

The dry down is delicate and pleasant, the vanilla blends beautifully with the white florals and the amber in such a classy and timeless way! I wear it year round as I find this one a very versatile atemporal scent.

Longevity and projection are not great though...I'm not too sure if it's because I bought a 2019 batch or what, but it doesn't last at all on me and people don't seem to really smell it after around 2-3 hours, I can't even smell it that much after that time on my own skin either which I find odd since all the samples I had before performed better than my actual bottle, but like I said, it could be because it's an "older" batch.

Overall I really like it when I want something quick and versatile to wear that works with pretty much any weather and any occasion and makes me feel quite well put together!

Really love it.
OG Libre and Libre Intense are STRONG, you don’t need much, but they are lovely.
Very similar to each other, the OG is fresher and fruiter and i get more of the lavender than in the intense.
I get lavender, vanilla, florals and musk and the mandarin orange is mostly just in the opening.
Really love them.

Not a safe blind buy
Really hated it on me, it smelled dated and funky.
I enjoyed the lavender start and was waiting to be taken onto an interesting ride but on my skin it went completely sour.
Love the bottle and on the right person I can imagine this smelling nice but to me it was not worth the price and there are way better alternatives out there.

A modern classic...
Libre was love at first sniff for me, which happens a lot...I can't lie about that, however the major difference is that this has become a long-term love. My husband complimented me on this fragrance the first time I tested this, which never happens...so I know if I love a scent and he loves a scent, it's "go time". Libre smells "vintage" in a classic type of way, like it could have been released 20+ years ago, yet still feels modern. Libre starts out very fresh , citrusy and very lavender-forward, then dries down to become a slightly-sweet vanilla lavender. This perfume is EXTREMELY potent and I have found that 1-2 sprays is the perfect dose for enjoyability, which is great considering most designer scents don't seem to last these days. BEWARE! Over spraying this perfume will easily choke out you and everyone around you...so spray with caution. Just like my beloved Chance EDT, this reminds me of a bright, sunny, Summers day; Libre is a mood-lifter in a bottle.

Kind of Overbearing
I'm not fan of powerful and heavy perfumes, so YSL Libre didn't work for me, unfortunately. The smell of overbearing florals and chemical s gave me a headache.
However, I can still list the positive aspects for those who favour heavier perfumes:

- A little goes a long way - the scent can be smelled from afar
- It's long-lasting
- Libre leaves a definite trail
- The bottle is beautifully elegant

If you wear YSL Libre, I hope we're not stuck in an elevator together x
