Flirty And Sophisticated: Yves Saint Laurent Parisienne (And Enter To Win A Trip To Paris!)

Parisienne_FragYves Sanit Laurent’s latest women’s fragrance is just what you should expect from a French design house. Subtly sexy and very feminine, YSL Parisienne says that it captures “the essence of a woman who is incredibly free. She is not from Paris but Paris adopts her. Because she knows how to love, how to live.” Now that’s sexy!

This pretty pink perfume comes in a classic looking cut glass bottle. It looks like something you might have seen on your grandmother’s vanity next to a pot of rouge and powder puff. The fragrance is based on the scents of cranberry, blackberry,  rose, peony, violet, vanilla, sandalwood, pathchouli, musk and vetiver. The sweetness of the berry and floral scents are grounded by the earthier sandalwood and patchoulli. The sweetness reminds me a bit of the fruity body sprays that tweens like to wear, but the overall scent has more sophistication. In short, it makes me feel young and chic all at the same time.

Whether or not you’ve had a chance to experience the magic of Paris, you probably have a bit of the parisienne in you. That certain je ne sais quoi that french women possess: a love of fashion, a passion for simple, delicious cooking or a flirtacious and adventurous spirit. Show off how you live parisienne style in your life and you could win a trip for two to Paris to ring in the new year from Yves Saint Laurent.  Check out www.ExperienceParisienne.com for details on how to enter. Enter by November 2nd. Bonne chance!
