1) Fragrance tends to last longer on hydrated skin so we recommend to apply straight after showering or your skincare routine.
2) Aim for your the pulse points located on your wrists, neck and behind your ears as they will be warmer, helping the scent to diffuse throughout the day.
3) A common mistake that actually removes the perfume is rubbing it into the skin. YSL advises you to leave it air dry for a longer-lasting smell.

Discover how to make your men's perfume last longer.

Choosing men's perfume can vary depending on the occasion, lifestyle and intensity preference.

One way to choose depends on how strong the scent is.

Choose Y Eau de Toilette for a moderate concentration (5–15%) that balances a fresh longevity with a lighter application.

MYSLF L'Absolu is a Eau de Parfum, a more concentrated fragrance (15–20%) that lasts longer and has a stronger scent trail, making it perfect for evening dinners or special occasions.

Fresh Fragrances for Men

If you prefer a clean, energising scent, a fresh fragrance is a great place to start. Y Le Parfum features a blend of white accord, geranium absolute and deeply invigorating midnight pine, balanced with dark accord of sensual woody patchouli and resinous fir balsam to create a fresh, masculine scent. For something bolder, Y L' Elixir takes freshness to the next level with a spicy intensity that lingers.

Woody Men's Perfumes

Woody scents are warm, deep, and timeless—ideal for evening wear or cooler months.

Myslf Eau De Parfum is the first YSL Beauty woody floral fragrance for men; using fresh & vibrant accord from Calabria and a Tunisian orange blossom, then settles into rich, earthy woods like patchouli and Ambrofix for a balanced, modern finish. The Myslf Le Parfum is the latest addition to the MYSLF range; born from the unexpected encounter of suave florality and velvety woods, and enhanced by velvety vanilla infusion, for a new sensual ambery trail.
