Yves Saint Laurent revolutionised fashion in the 20th century — and its fragrance division carries that same rebellious elegance.

At AlHimyan, we carry over 30 YSL fragrances — here's your guide to choosing the right one in the UAE.
YSL for Men: The Pillars
The Y Collection
Y Eau de Parfum — The Modern Gentleman
Y EDP is YSL's most versatile men's fragrance. Apple, sage, and ginger open fresh and bright, while amberwood and tonka bean anchor a warm, confident dry-down. It's the kind of scent that works from boardroom to bar — effortlessly handsome in Dubai's climate.
Best for: Daily wear, office, versatile all-rounder

Y Le Parfum — Intensified Elegance
A richer, more concentrated version of Y EDP with deeper amber and lavender notes. Le Parfum adds a gourmand twist that makes it ideal for UAE evenings when temperatures drop and you want something with more weight and presence.
AED 580 (100ml)Shop Y Le Parfum →
Y L'Elixir — The Ultimate Y
The most concentrated expression of Y — a Parfum concentration with amplified ginger, black coffee, and vetiver. Beast-mode projection and longevity. For the man who wants to leave a lasting impression at every event.

MYSLF — The Bold Newcomer
YSL's latest men's pillar launched to massive acclaim. MYSLF pairs orange blossom with a woody-gourmand base in an unexpectedly fresh way. It's modern, unapologetically masculine yet refined — perfect for the UAE's younger, fashion-conscious crowd.

The La Nuit de L'Homme Collection
La Nuit de L'Homme EDT — The Date Night Legend
One of the most seductive men's fragrances ever created. The cardamom, lavender, and cedar blend is uniquely intimate and sensual. While projection is closer to skin in UAE heat, the magnetic effect is undeniable. A perennial bestseller for a reason.
AED 457 (100ml)Shop La Nuit EDT →
La Nuit de L'Homme EDP — The Boosted Classic
The EDP reformulates the DNA with added intensity and longevity. Deeper woody notes and more prominent spices give it better performance in the UAE's heat. If you love the original but want it to last through a Dubai evening, this is the upgrade.
AED 688 (100ml)Shop La Nuit EDP →
The L'Homme Collection
L'Homme EDP — The Refined Classic
L'Homme EDP is sophisticated ginger-wood elegance. Clean, mature, and universally inoffensive — the kind of fragrance that draws compliments in any setting. An excellent choice for UAE professionals.
From AED 297 (60ml) — AED 473 (100ml)Shop L'Homme EDP →
Kouros EDT — The Vintage Icon
A legendary powerhouse from 1981. Kouros is uncompromising — civet, honey, jasmine, and leather in a bold animalic composition. Not for the faint-hearted, but for those who appreciate vintage fragrance artistry. At AED 235, it's arguably the best value YSL you can buy.

YSL for Women: The Icons
The Libre Collection
Libre EDP — Freedom in a Bottle
Libre has become one of the world's best-selling women's fragrances — and for good reason. Lavender, orange blossom, and vanilla create a daring masculine-feminine tension that feels empowering and modern. A signature scent for UAE's confident women.
From AED 500 (50ml) — AED 690 (90ml)Shop Libre EDP →
Libre Intense — The Deeper Cut
Takes the original Libre DNA and pushes it into richer, more sensual territory. More orange blossom, more vanilla, more depth. Better suited for UAE evening events where you want the fragrance to develop fully over hours.
From AED 540 (50ml) — AED 730 (90ml)Shop Libre Intense →
Libre Le Parfum — The Concentrated Libre
The highest concentration in the Libre line. Richer benzoin and amber notes give it a warmer, more enveloping character. Exceptional value — the 50ml at AED 398 is the most affordable entry into the Libre family.
From AED 398 (50ml) — AED 569 (90ml)Shop Libre Le Parfum →
Libre Berry Crush — The Fruity Twist
A playful, fruity flanker with blackberry and raspberry accents. Younger and more casual than the original, Berry Crush is perfect for UAE weekend brunches and casual outings.
From AED 460 (50ml) — AED 610 (90ml)Shop Libre Berry Crush →
The Black Opium Collection
Black Opium EDP — The Coffee Addiction
The fragrance that put YSL women's back on the map. Black coffee, vanilla, and white flowers create an addictive gourmand that's both energising and sensual. A global bestseller that performs beautifully in Dubai's air-conditioned indoor spaces.
From AED 347 (50ml) — AED 523 (90ml)Shop Black Opium EDP →
Black Opium Le Parfum — The Elevated Edition
Richer coffee and deeper vanilla with added floral complexity. Le Parfum concentration means better longevity in UAE heat. For those who love the original but crave a more sophisticated take.

YSL Le Vestiaire des Parfums: The Luxury Line

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the most popular YSL perfume in the UAE?
For men, Y EDP and La Nuit de L'Homme consistently top sales. For women, Libre EDP and Black Opium are the clear favourites. All four are safe blind-buy choices that work exceptionally well in the UAE climate.
Which YSL fragrance lasts longest in UAE heat?
Y L'Elixir, La Nuit EDP, Libre Intense, and Tuxedo all deliver 8-10+ hours. The EDT formulations (Kouros, La Nuit EDT, L'Homme EDT) are lighter at 5-7 hours. For maximum performance, choose EDP or Parfum concentrations and apply to moisturized skin.
Is La Nuit de L'Homme EDT or EDP better?
The EDT (AED 457) is the original — softer, more intimate, ideal for close encounters. The EDP (AED 688) projects more and lasts longer, better for outdoor events in UAE heat. Most collectors prefer the EDP for daily use in the Gulf climate.
What's the difference between Libre EDP, Intense, and Le Parfum?
Libre EDP (from AED 500) is the balanced original. Libre Intense (from AED 540) is warmer and sweeter. Libre Le Parfum (from AED 398) is the richest but surprisingly the most affordable — making it the best value in the line.
