Designers use a mixture of ingredients. It should not be surprising that YSL would do the same. This is a powerful blast of metallic and citrus. Is it real orange blossom? Doubt it, but I don't care, It gives me a dopamine rush. It smells like heavy metal and a bouquet of flowers. I know that's strange, but that is the vibe I get. I even smell some grape, why? I don't know.
The bottle design works, the brand name works (I am like 60/40 positive with my YSL ratings,) and it's marketed as being loud and strong. Heck, I go for BDC EDP; Green Irish Tweed, and even Sung Homme styles, these are not super sweet, but Absolu works for me. It scratches this soda sweet smelling itch, and I'm here for it. I love it.
