Rive Gauche Perfume by Yves Saint Laurent, The independent woman needs a perfume that exudes comfort with Rive Gauche. This fragrance came out in 1971. It consists of many warm, gentle accords, and the notes you will find in this perfume include magnolia, honeysuckle, gardenia, sandalwood and oak moss. It is instantly recognizable in an exquisitely-crafted flacon.

This perfume comes from Yves Saint Laurent, a prestigious fashion house based out of France. The company was founded by Yves Henri
Donat Mathieu-Saint-Laurent who began his career in the industry when he was just 17. He worked for Christian Dior for some time until he was able to branch out on his own and launch his own brand house. Over time, fragrances and cosmetics became part of the company’s offerings.

Michel Hy is the perfumer behind this rich fragrance. Hy is a talented perfumer who brings an air of sophistication to every perfume he works on, including fragrances for Paco Rabanne. All products are original, authentic name brands. We do not sell knockoffs or imitations.

Hey, everyone. It's Sarah, and today I'll be reviewing Rive Gauche by YSL for women. Inspired by the French avant-garde, this perfume was released in the '70s. It was created to complement the free, independent women of our time. It's filled with rose absolute, bergamot, oak moss, vetiver, balsamic notes, and metal. This is a nice signature fragrance for special occasions. All right, everyone, thanks for watching.

A Divinity's perfume

Used this perfume 20 years ago. Had forgotten its absolute devine effect. Luca Turin the absolute reference for perfume scents says this for Rive Gauche: "Thanks for Rive Gauche, mere humans finally smell the odor of DIANE's scents at the bath" This is a sculpture perfume and is not for any Godess

as it entertains a curious rapport with intensity... the more time passes, the more its grace become evident and lets its interior light irradiate." Its exactly what I'm experiencing now that it arrived and I've sprayed some on my skin...For intense, passionate and profound women...most likely for evening but too good not to use during the day... Ouuuffff! A pure marvel, how could I have been without it so long... Thank You for the great price [...]

Nice but not as intoxicating as it was years ago

I love the classic sent although it does smell exactly the same as years ago when The first time I smelled it years ago I thought it was intoxicating. I just kept smelling it and smelling it my dad had bought it for me. I was so happy. He is an avid Cologne Wearer. He always smelled good and made

good cologne and perfume choices so I know. This one is not exactly the same as it used to be but very close just not intoxicating like before. And also it does not last a long time on your skin. More so on your clothes than your skin.

Completely different than 80's formula

Umm, not at all the scent I remember my best friend using in the 80's. The old formulation had a very sharp opening and settled into a modern floral. This formulation is softer and more generic - not as unique as the original - I still like it and will wear it in the upcoming warmer weather.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Perennial favourite

I wore this in the late seventies and did so for many years. It then became more difficult to get hold of at a reasonable price so I switched to alternatives. It is still quite expensive but the silage ensures it lasts all day A voluptuous and all pervading perfume which is great for special occasions and always gets compliments.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Very sketchy

I know the perfume is decent, but the website doesn't tell you until after you purchase that they are charging you in USD, which the bank charges a fee for. Found multiple hidden fees that could not be accounted for.

A friend gave to me as a Christmas gift over 40 years ago and it's the only one that I can wear, I use it everyday. I can't find in our local stores anymore, found your website, order from there now, love your prices and no shipping fee. Keep it up, I'll stay with you forever. Great product, everyone should try it at least once.

My first perfume

This was my first perfume ever. I just finished University, working casual in jobs at low pay. I had little money but big hair, big attitude, big faith, always in black and red lipstick. This was the 80s... A friend of mine I went to Uni with was much more comfortable than me bought me a bottle of this when she had the luxury to travel overseas with her boyfriend at the time. I used it for every occasion, every day, work, dates, parties, whatever.... I never used it since.... I just purchases this again for the first time, this time with my own perfume....
