About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

L’Homme Cologne Gingembre is a 2011 aromatic spicy fragrance from Yves Saint Laurent, part of the L’Homme Cologne line. It opens with a bright, watery bergamot accord, leading into a heart of ginger, violet leaf, white pepper, and basil. The base settles into musk, Virginia cedar, vetiver, and oak moss, providing a dry, woody foundation. The composition is dominated by fresh spicy (100%) and aquatic (86%) accords, with supporting fresh, citrus, aromatic, and woody facets. This is a crisp, energizing scent that suits warm weather and casual daytime wear. It appeals to men who appreciate a clean, spicy freshness with a subtle green edge. Collectors of discontinued YSL fragrances will find it a worthy addition for its balance of aquatic freshness and aromatic spice.
