Basic Information and First Impression
Yves Saint Laurent MYSLF Eau de Parfum is a 2023 masculine fragrance about modern self-expression. Its name places YSL at the center and suggests a connection between M and F. The first impression is clean orange blossom, citrus brightness, and a soft modern floral character.
Perfumer and Brand Background
YSL has long challenged boundaries in fashion and fragrance. MYSLF updates the masculine side of that language by placing orange blossom at the center. Christophe Raynaud, Daniela Andrier, and Antoine Maisondieu are credited as perfumers.
Scent Analysis
The opening is orange blossom, citrus, and bergamot. The heart centers on Tunisian orange blossom absolute. The drydown combines woods, ambergris, Ambrofix, and patchouli for a long clean woody-amber finish.
Comparison and Positioning
Compared with YSL L'Homme, MYSLF is more floral and modern. Compared with Dior Sauvage, it is softer and cleaner. Compared with Bleu de Chanel, it is younger, brighter, and more white-floral. Compared with Prada L'Homme, it uses orange blossom rather than iris for cleanliness.
Buying and Wearing
The Japanese official listing shows 60 mL at 17,380 yen including tax, with other sizes and refill options available depending on retailer. It suits offices, daily wear, dates, jackets, white shirts, and people who want a clean masculine fragrance with floral softness.
Wearing Impressions
It is praised for cleanliness, wearability, attractive bottle design, and broad appeal. Some wearers may find it too polished or not distinctive enough, while orange-blossom-sensitive wearers should test the heart on skin.
