Libre Intense is the 2020 deeper version of Yves Saint Laurent's Libre, again composed by Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaïm. Floral is the dominant description, with most wearers also calling it sweet, aromatic and citrusy and a third noticing woods and amber.

The lavender contrast of the original is kept: it opens with lavender alongside bergamot and mandarin orange, herbal and bright at once. The heart is richer than in Libre, with Tunisian orange blossom and jasmine sambac for honeyed white flowers, orchid for a creamy softness and lavender returning underneath. The base turns warmer and heavier: Madagascar vanilla and tonka bean for a thick, sweet warmth, vetiver for dryness and ambergris for a salty, skin-like glow.

Most wearers report it lasting a long time, and about half find the sillage strong, with the rest mostly calling it moderate. Winter and autumn lead the votes and it is clearly an evening scent, so it suits cold nights, dinners and occasions where a sweet, lavender-laced floral can take centre stage.

Libre Intense — for women fragrance by Yves Saint Laurent (released 2020). Top notes: Lavender, Mandarin Orange, Bergamot. Heart notes: Lavender, Tunisian Orange Blossom, Jasmine Sambac, Orchid. Base notes: Madagascar Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Ambergris, Vetiver. — Parfica open fragrance database
