Yves Saint Laurent Yvresse Eau de Toilette Spray

My birthday came and went many a month ago (well 6 months ago to be exact) and one of the things at the top of my wish list never surfaced. I was gutted. I had sat imagining all of the wonderful things that would happen to me once I had liberally sprayed on Yvresse, the perfume by Yves Saint Laurent. Images of me walking down the road with panache, grace, a look of natural style and sexyness without doing a god-damn thing, and all thanks to my perfume, became a constant yearning in the back of my mind.

When I smelt this one, I just had to buy it. I have always had a bottle in my collection since then. It was called Champagne then but the name was changed. Men tend to love this perfume on ladies.
