Libre Vanille Couture by Yves Saint LaurentYves Saint LaurentLibre Vanille Couture4.042 ratings

I know it’s still summer. But it’s grey and gloomy, 16 degrees (60f), I’m at home and this just called to me.

    Have you tried the non-alcoholic Libre? The white one. I was contemplating buying it for my wife, because it was suitable for hair and skin.

      The Libre L'Eau Nue? Yes. It’s a lighter and fresher version of the dna with a more prominent orange blossom and muted lavender. It’s very nice but I had a few issues with it. Firstly, it disappeared after an hour and I don’t think that’s fair considering the price is the same as the perfumes? Secondly, it’s oil based. Great for hair and skin, but it does leave a strange oily residue on your skin, unlike perfume oils, it seems to sit there on top of your skin, so it actually marked the cuff of my coat. It’s a beautiful lighter version of the scent though. I love Libre Le Parfum, but can only wear it outdoors as it’s very strong, so I was excited about this. If it was priced the same as a hair mist, I would’ve maybe considered it. But then I found Vanille Couture, which is an office friendly Libre. But all that matters is if your wife likes it and it works for her?

      Replying to @curlyhen

      Haven’t bought it for her yet. But she has some other YSL libre and really likes the line. So perhaps I’ll just get her a regular perfume. Thanks for your input 👍

    60 degrees is a great temperature and would be a nice break from this heat. I don't have any of the Libres but the combination sounds nice

      lol. Our typical summer temps are 60-70. Anything over 77 and we start melting. In fact, 77 or over for 5 consecutive days is classed as a heatwave here 🙈.. but we don’t have AC in our homes, hospitals and most workplaces.
