Okay to give this some context, I sprayed this again after paying very little attention to it for years and in direct comparison with YSL newer fragrances Y & Myself and LNDLM parfum shined with a new kind of clarity and brilliance, like a Diamond, no actually… an uncut piece of semi precious stone among some dog turds. I like how this formulation veers more into the soft warm territory than the edt, making them quite different but clearly related fragrances. Sometimes I don’t think perfumers get credit for when they remake or reimagine fragrances, cleverly mimicking accords and playing around with structure. It’s tempting to say… “ I prefer the original” or not to fully appreciate why certain decisions have been made.
