Pros & Cons
- ✅ This is a great refreshing scent, nothing like Y EDT, EDP, Le Parfum etc. Alternatives would be Michael Malul Sea+Zephyr and The Cartoonist. The performance isn't great with eau friache but it is ok. My favorite scent profile of the Y line though for sure!
- ✅ A very good summer sent. It has a wonderful dry bite that works well in the heat. One of the few YSL men's fragrances outside of the many great scents in the Le Vestiaire Parfums range worthy of owing.
- ✅ I'll never forgive YSL for discontinuing this! It has the typical YSL Y DNA; that slightly sweet green apple scent, geranium & cedar. ... 10/10 legendary lemon scent, a summer staple & an iconic DNA that makes its modern flankers look awful!
- ❌ I don't like the smell, it is much worse than the EdP or Le Parfume version. ... after about 1 hour it completely disappears. 4.5/10.
- ❌ It Is bitter and for me only summer/summer nights wearable. I get some compliments but I don't feel good vibes when I wear it. It Is just OK but I will Never rebuy it.
- ❌ YSL Y, or the the number one most boring and generic fragrance line of all time, with another flanker, that smells okay, has mediocre performance and is overpriced for what it gives.
