Jean Patou introduced Sublime in 1992. Dedicated to a woman who likes to stand out with her style and attitude, this combination of beauty and harmony is presented in an elegant, luxurious bottle with a golden stopper. The bottle is meant to hint at a ripe fruit with the stopper being a spring bud bursting. It is a joyful and uplifting oriental, floral fragrance. The orange and mandarin in the top notes evoke happy and sunny thoughts. The heart encompasses floral caresses of rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and neroli oil. The base notes sensually combine vanilla, sandal, cedar and civet.

Yvresse was originally launched in 1993 under the name of Champagne. The selection of this name was vigorously opposed by the French champagne makers. After long and hard fought court proceedings, the name, and to an extent the bottle design, had to be changed. It then became Yvresse. The name Yvresse, is a play on the French word ivresse, meaning intoxicated with joy and Yves, Saint Laurent’s first name. Yvresse opens with the golden glow of nectarines, then melds their just plucked juiciness with mint and anise. The heart is composed of many many roses at their full blown peak accompanied by Chinese lychee- a luscious fruit with a mouth watering taste. Dry down is vetiver and patchouli with the velvet glove of oakmoss. Yvresse is a true original and a most extraordinary fragrance.
