Y Eau de Parfum is a woody gourmand for men from Yves Saint Laurent, released in 2018 and composed by Dominique Ropion and Claire Liégent. Everyone describes it as gourmand and woody, and about half also find it spicy, floral, aromatic and citrus.

The opening is apple and bergamot with ginger, crisp and fruity with a warm spicy lift. The heart is sage, geranium and juniper berries, so the middle is herbal, green and slightly gin-like. The base is cedar and amberwood with vetiver, tonka bean and frankincense, a smooth, sweet-woody finish with a faint smoky resin.

More than half of wearers report long lasting performance and the rest mostly moderate; the trail is split between moderate and strong. It is voted for spring and summer and slightly more for day than night, which makes it a versatile, modern masculine that works for both work and evenings in milder weather.
