Fall in Love with the Most Iconic YSL Perfume Collection Ever
What if you could wear your personality like couture? That’s exactly what happened when we walked into the newly redesigned YSL Beauty boutique in Mid Valley Megamall. As the sleek marble floors and mirrored walls shimmered around us, we were introduced to a world where fashion meets fragrance—Le Vestiaire des Parfums, YSL’s most luxurious and exclusive scent collection.
Inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s legendary fashion archives—like the razor-sharp tuxedo or the daring sheer blouse—each perfume is more than a scent. It’s a statement. And if you’re a Gen Z or Millennial in Malaysia looking to upgrade your fragrance game? This is your ultimate olfactory wardrobe.
Why Le Vestiaire des Parfums is the Best YSL Perfume Line
Each fragrance in the YSL Le Vestiaire des Parfums collection is crafted to evoke the emotion and energy of a couture piece. It’s luxury storytelling through scent.
“Fragrance is memory, attitude, and identity wrapped in one,” says Paris-based scent designer Marie Salamagne, one of the noses behind the collection. “With Le Vestiaire, we wanted each scent to feel like slipping into a different version of yourself.”
Key things to love:
- Gender-fluid appeal – These aren’t your typical floral or woody perfumes. Each one is layered and unexpected.
- Couture inspiration – Every scent is based on one of Saint Laurent’s signature fashion silhouettes.
- Luxury craftsmanship – Developed by master perfumers using rare, high-grade ingredients.

This fragrance was inspired by the very ink YSL used to sketch his revolutionary designs. With a soft powdery heart and a musky-metallic base, Muse is complex yet elegant—structured but fluid.

Some fragrances whisper. Others command a room. Tuxedo is definitely the latter.

3. Blouse: Soft, Feminine, Yet Surprisingly Modern
Picked by Syameen
If you love florals but want something fresh—not sugary—Blouse is the airy, romantic scent that stands out from the rest.

Inspired by Saint Laurent’s transparent blouse that blurred the line between sensual and chic, this perfume feels like a spring breeze in a botanical garden.
“It’s floral, but not basic,” Syameen shares. “There’s this peppery green twist that makes it feel clean and confident.”
