A vividly modern aromatic fougère, Y Eau de Parfum Intense charges the Y signature with a cool spark of blue juniper and ginger over a luminous heart of French lavender and aromatic sage, then settles into elegant woods shaped by patchouli and cedar. It reads polished and confident with fresh lift at the top, supple florals in the center, and a deep blue woody trail that carries from day to night with effortless style.

Story & Positioning
Part of the Y pillar, Intense amplifies the line’s clean, cool signature by spicing it with blue juniper, brightening the florals, and grounding the composition with suave patchouli for lasting presence. It sits as a confident bridge between the freshness of Y Eau de Parfum and the darker gravitas of the higher concentrations, delivering an all day blue woods aura that feels crisp, sensual, and unmistakably YSL.
Bottle & Design
The Suzanne Dalton-designed Y bottle appears in a translucent deep night blue lacquer with a striking silver Y element cutting across the square shouldered glass. The look balances sharp tailoring with cool elegance, echoing the fragrance’s intensified take on the Y code.
