FAQ for Yvresse
Is Yvresse perfume discontinued?
No, Yvresse by Yves Saint Laurent is not discontinued, but it was originally launched under the name 'Champagne.' Due to legal issues related to the use of the name 'Champagne'—which is a protected designation of origin—the perfume was rebranded as 'Yvresse' in 1993.
What does Yvresse perfume smell like?
Yvresse by Yves Saint Laurent is a sparkling, fruity chypre fragrance. It opens with vibrant top notes of peach, nectarine, and apricot that give it a juicy freshness. These are beautifully complemented by heart notes of rose and violet, bringing an elegant floral dimension. The base notes of oakmoss, patchouli, and vanilla infuse depth and warmth, creating a well-rounded and sophisticated scent.
What happened to the perfume called Champagne?
Champagne was the original name for Yves Saint Laurent's iconic fragrance launched in 1993. Due to a lawsuit involving the French Champagne industry, YSL was compelled to change the name in order to comply with international trademark laws. Consequently, the perfume was renamed 'Yvresse,' which means intoxication, aligning with the luxurious and celebratory character of the original scent.
What does the word 'yvresse' mean?
The word 'yvresse' is a play on the French term 'ivresse,' which means intoxication or ebullience. This name aptly captures the essence of the perfume's lively and effervescent scent, suggesting a feeling of joy and euphoria much like a celebratory toast with Champagne.
What kind of scent is Yvresse perfume?
Yvresse is classified as a chypre fruity fragrance. This type of scent is characterized by its citrus top notes combined with a floral heart and a rich, earthy base. It's known for its sophisticated yet playful aroma that makes it a timeless choice for multiple occasions.
What are the notes in Yvresse perfume?
Yvresse boasts a harmonious blend of notes. Top Notes: Peach, Nectarine, and Apricot. Heart Notes: Rose and Violet. Base Notes: Oakmoss, Patchouli, and Vanilla. These ingredients work together to create a fragrance that is at once lively and deeply alluring.
What season is Yvresse perfume best suited for?
Yvresse is a versatile fragrance that can be worn year-round. Its fruity and floral notes make it perfect for spring and summer, evoking the vibrant freshness of these seasons. Meanwhile, its warm base notes provide a comforting aura suitable for fall and winter, making it a fragrance that adapts beautifully throughout the year.
Is Yvresse perfume suitable for all occasions?
Yes, Yvresse is renowned for its versatility. Whether you're attending a high-profile event, a casual day out, or even a romantic evening, Yvresse adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any setting. Its balanced profile of fruity brightness and deep warmth makes it apt for both daytime and evening wear.
Can Yvresse perfume be worn by both men and women?
While Yvresse is marketed as a women's perfume due to its floral elements, its unique composition of fruity and chypre notes can be appreciated by anyone who admires complex and elegant fragrances. As with any scent, personal preference plays a significant role in wearability.
How long does Yvresse perfume last?
Yvresse has impressive longevity. On average, it can last from 6 to 8 hours on the skin, depending on factors like skin type and environment. Its sillage is moderate, providing an enveloping aroma that isn't overwhelming, making it suitable for both close encounters and open spaces.

Super upset that this perfume isn't sold in my country. This perfume takes a special place in my heart and on my perfume cabinet with the rest of my fragrance collection.

But you know what, don't buy it.. coz I'll always have the supply all to myself heheeee… so for my own selfish reason, I will never recommend this to anyone heheeee…

Reason YSL stopped producing it?
YSL did not want to stop producing the original "Champagne"--but France decided that THEY were the only ones who could use the word "Champagne" on anything-so YSL had to take the perfume off the market--took years but they finally came out with a new "Champagne" called Yvresse--not quite the same but close---does anyone want to sell a bottle of the original one? In the meantime, I buy the new "Champagne"--and on occasion, take one spritz of the original (I still have about 1/5 of a bottle left). Would give anything to get the original one back. Are you listening YSL???
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I've used this for years. It's the ONLY perfume that doesn't turn sour on me. I always get compliments on it. It took me a long to find it years ago. I have a hard time finding it know.

Magnificent fragrance
This exquisite fragrance is one of my favourite Chypres of all time. The woody/mossy notes and the floral and citrus elements have been blended with a light hand so that no one component sticks out. I've worn it night and day and it doesn't fill a room like Samsara, Poison or other obnoxious overwhelming scents. There's a lightness, a touch of sweetness and those earthy base notes that make this truly beautiful. I wish though that YSL had not changed the bottle to the clunky cube which does not reflect the grace of this fine perfume.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I would buy this again....
Despite learning that the original Ypres from YSL was no longer made, I took the chance and purchased what is now the alternative product, if one wishes to have a perfume with the same lovely smell. I have to say I prefer the look of the original, and am sad that YSL is ":a thing of the past" as it were...but have been very pleased with what arrived, and have had compliments (as before) about this perfume. Will purchase again in the future.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Gorgeous scent
Not everyone can wear the same perfume. Yvresse suits me perfectly and draws many compliments. However, a friend asked to try it and when she sprayed it on, it gave her a headache and was too strong. So it depends on each person's physical makeup ie acidity/alkalinity as to whether ANY perfume suits them.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
