Unnecessary Flanker...

Look. Libre EDP is one of my all-time favorite fragrances and I enjoy the Libre line, However, in my personal opinion, this was the most disappointing flanker they have released this far. This smells exactly like Libre EDP, okay, not exact...but the differences are so minor they are pretty much undetectable. I can verrry faintly pick up a "coconut/beachy" note but I really have to seriously focus to find it to the point that I'm wondering if I'm just imagining what I'm smelling. That being said...this smells very nice, but it if you already own Libre EDP, this isn't worth buying unless you're trying to collect all the Libre's.

YSL Libre Flowers & Flame - Free Sample

I received a free sample of this fragrance from YSL (thanks direct marketing on instagram)! First, the atomizer on the little sample bottle was amazing! As for the fragrance, I do not get a strong lavender opening, maybe slightly herbal. I do not get bergamot at all. After the opening, I smell a strong white floral, it leaned more jasmine than lily in my opinion. I do smell the palm tree accord. If you’ve ever had a bath/fragrance product with “palm” in the title, you’ll recognize this accord. I smell coconut in the sense of like a “sun-warmed” atmospheric note, but not in a tropical or sunscreen way. To sum it up, it is white floral + vanilla + palm tree. I think the palm tree accord lends a slight airiness to the fragrance. I think this would be a nice spring or summer scent for day or night. I get moderate longevity (~6 hours, turns into a lighter vanilla as time goes on), and moderate-strong sillage (more than an arm's length but less than 6 feet). I think this is a well-blended, high-quality fragrance. I recently bought Mugler Angel Elixir, and I think they have pretty similar vibes. Although I enjoyed this sample, I don’t find it super unique, and I likely wouldn’t pay ~$3.50/mL.

Libre Flower and Flames

A different approach to Libre. While the first one in the line comes across as loud and shouty, this one is soft and balanced. Libre is certainly recognisable, but the orange blossom is now much softer. Coconut also makes it a lot creamier. You have to take your time for this perfume. Do not smell it on a strip or briefly on your wrist. But sit back and relax and I'm sure you will recognize and acknowledge the quality of this perfume. The first from this line that I can appreciate and even bought.

Flowers and... What Flames?

Due to the name I hoped for a smoky version of Libre, but apparently the "Flames" here are more like sunrays. This is a warm, beachy floral take on it and not smoky at all.

It still carries the Libre DNA of very clean, fresh lavender and orange blossom. Compared to the original it doesn't feel as soapy, but it's lighter than the Intense and Le Parfum flankers. I think it's a bit lighter on the lavender and heavier on the orange blossom and vanilla than the pillar fragrance. There is something about this that feels warm and almost buttery.
Palm flower is the most interesting looking new note for this flanker, but to be honest I have no idea what that smells like. So, of course, I looked it up, and the internet says it has a vegetal scent that turns into a sweet, sunny floral with accents of caramel. I don't get anything vegetal/green here, but the rest of the description tracks pretty well!
The addition of tuberose to the notes list makes sense to me, too, as this flower can lean tropical. I do not get any lily here.

Libre is one of those perfumes where I prefer the flankers over the original, and this is another pretty addition to the lineup. It's not vastly different from the rest of the collection, but a nice alternative for the warmer seasons. It would make a good summer night perfume. My favorite Libre is Le Parfum and this doesn't come close to it, but I like it.

Very helpful Review 20

Well, it's nice.

At first, there is a very floral-fruity note and one would almost be inclined to think of ZARA Gold Man EdP, only less fruity and much more ambery. Not bad at all!

And then, unfortunately, it becomes rather tiringly average. Ambry, sweet with a slight hint of gum. Friends of Rubberdolls will probably notice increased saliva formation in the throat, but it's not quite that bad, rather light.
The floral aspect remains a little spongy, only the tuberose is recognizable in outline.

Overall impression: nice. Sounds like the Waldmarie and rings all the sillage bells. But... Little recognition value. That's not a serious crime, but at this price you could find something cuter in the amberbombs range.
