I want to preface by sharing that I received this product as a gift from Influenster - thank you! I was extremely excited to receive this, as a huge fan of YSL, the designer. Upon opening the box, I was delighted at the sleek shape of the perfume bottle- the gold accents gave a luxurious feeling. Aesthetics like this just draw you in and make you want to use it. Regarding the fragrance itself, however, I wasn’t as delighted. Simply put, it has a very strong masculine cologne scent, to the point that I even double checked the notecard, as well as looking it up online to make sure I got the right YSL Libre Absolu Platine sample. Others have mentioned that there are sweet, floral, and vanilla scents in the fragrance, but I personally didn’t experience any of that.

Others have mentioned that there are sweet, floral, and vanilla scents in the fragrance, but I personally didn’t experience any of that. The only things I took away from the fragrance was vanilla with an overwhelming musk- vanilla is also one of the scents I’m not a very big fan of it because of its cloying quality that lingers. However, I’m sure the vanilla and the musk were a huge influence in the perfume’s longevity, which was a good thing. Despite not loving the scent, it was nice to see a perfume that did last the entire day, instead of a few minutes, especially given its price. Overall, I would recommend this perfume for anyone who is looking for a more unisex/masculine fragrance that has a strong staying power. Additionally, if you’re a fan of vanilla and musk, these two things are a huge selling point for this fragrance, so I would recommend this to anyone who likes these scents.

I was excited to receive this Libre L’Absolu Plantine fragrance from influenster and YSL. I received this fragrance complementary in exchange for my honest opinion. Prior to receiving this, I was already in love with the Libre Le Parfum for its saffron note and the Libre Intese for is Orchid accord. This new fragrance “L’Absolu Plantine” is completely different. Upon first spraying you can really smell the Aldehyde and white lavendar, it’s somewhat masculine and at the same time soft and slightly powdery. As time passes the fragrance settles into a very soft sensual scent, the vanilla and ambergris come out and release their femininity. I took my time and used this fragrance for 2-3 weeks so I could get an authentic reaction from others.

I took my time and used this fragrance for 2-3 weeks so I could get an authentic reaction from others. Some people said it was very masculine and others said it was sophisticated. Based on the reaction I feel this fragrance could be unisex. I feel this fragrance is for a confident woman who exudes strength and can command the attention f a room, a BOSS!! The bottle is adorned in Silver and Gold giving is a Regal look, it gives EXPENSIVE. The glass is clear with the inside a silver iridescent/opaque look. The classic YSL logo in gold on the side of the bottle. The 1.6oz bottle retails for $162 and it’s worth the price for the projection and Silliage, it will last over 8hrs with a scent trail. I will be wearing this fragrance when I want to be Bold and alluring.

The Libre Absolu Platine Eau de Parfum is a floral, musky scent from the House of Yves Saint Laurent. It has notes of sensual Orange Blossom, bold Lavender/white Lavender, and musk. This is a flanker version of the original Libre Eau de Parfum. Personally, I have been a fan of YSL’s perfume for a few years. I have tried Black Opium, Libre EDP (original), and Libre Intense EDP. I have received so many compliments from men when wearing the Libre Intense that it has become my staple for either a first-date or date night, so I became excited when I was given the opportunity to try out the new Libre Absolu Platine. Normally, I am a fan of gourmand and cozy and/or fresh scents.

Normally, I am a fan of gourmand and cozy and/or fresh scents. I like fragrances that have a strong performance throughout the day and isn’t too overbearing for everyday or work wear. At first, I decided to test out this fragrance’s performance on my clothes. I sprayed it on my clothes around 7pm, and I could still smell it on my shirt when I woke up around 8AM the next morning. I believe that the orange blossom and white lavender makes this perfume a head-turner. It is comparable to the original Libre EDP, but it is slightly unisex as well. The bottle has a similar design to the other Libre perfumes, but it has a beautiful frosted silver look. All in all, I really enjoyed this fragrance from the House of Yves Saint Laurent called Libre Absolu Platine. I think it is a safe buy if a person is a fan of the Libre line and a fan of lavender and orange blossom fragrances. I think the orange blossom and lavender notes are blended beautifully in this perfume, and I believe that this perfume would be best suited for fall/winter days. I would highly recommend this perfume to my family and friends.

It's a gorgeous presentation to start. The box is pretty standard luxury perfume, nothing to write home about. The bottle, however, is very nice. It's very elegant—the notched cut in the Y, the gold logo wrapping the bottle and the "platinum" interior of the bottle. I really appreciate the molded chain detail around the neck of the bottle as well. The perfume itself, I'm a little less keen on. It's good, but it's sharp. I get a lot of lavender from it, which is fine because I do enjoy a good lavender and the bergamot rounds it out. I do find it stays in that lavender-bergamot area through the majority of wear, and won't let the ambergris or vanilla in until far later in the wear—I wish I could get the vanilla to come out but thats skin chemistry for you. I haven't ... MoreIt's a gorgeous presentation to start. The box is pretty standard luxury perfume, nothing to write home about. The bottle, however, is very nice.

I received Libre Absolu Platine for free from Influenster and YSL in exchange for my honest review. I have had the product and used it for a little over a week now because I wanted to give it a fair chance ( because honestly I usually wear light, airy sweet scents) and be able to give a helpful review. My first reaction was when I seen the bottle which is absolutely gorgeous and looks amazing displayed front and center on my fragrance vanity. The contrasting platinum silver color of the actual bottle with the gold accented black top and gold letters it is stunning. The angles give it a unique edgy look that is seductive yet timeless. So now on to the fragrance when I first applied it I noticed it was strong and almost reminded me of some of my husbands cologne with ... MoreI received Libre Absolu Platine for free from Influenster and YSL in exchange for my honest review.

My first reaction was when I seen the bottle which is absolutely gorgeous and looks amazing displayed front and center on my fragrance vanity. The contrasting platinum silver color of the actual bottle with the gold accented black top and gold letters it is stunning. The angles give it a unique edgy look that is seductive yet timeless. So now on to the fragrance when I first applied it I noticed it was strong and almost reminded me of some of my husbands cologne with a spicy mix of citrus and floral, once it dried it had more of a sweet musky scent with a hint of floral which was much better. At first I could smell it on myself pretty strongly but not a overpowering strong scent, however it quickly faded and after about 4 hours I needed to reapply it. However I did get a lot of compliments on it from people I pass in my everyday life and while I did like the scent I don’t see it becoming an everyday scent for me. I would probably wear it more during the colder months or for special occasions as it does give off a strong warm sexy and alluring vibe. So if you like musky floral warm deep scents then this is 100% for you , if your looking to step out of your comfort zone to try something a little more deep sensual then I would definitely try this however if you are not a musk or floral fan then this is not something that will appeal you.

This perfume is an absolute knockout. There’s a balanced duality to it that leaves you curious and coming back for more. The initial hit of lavender is strong and a touch astringent. It was actually the only thing I didn’t like about this perfume. It was just too much for me personally, but it dried down quickly enough that I couldn’t bring myself to deduct any stars for it. It never completely goes away but is very subtle and a beautiful addition. Middle notes of orange blossom are bright and sweet to bring balance to the heady musk and herbal lavender. A musk base note heavy on vanilla manages to standup to the other notes despite typically being soft powdery. Combining it with the bright honey of the orange blossom and the earthy coolness of the white lavender ... MoreThis perfume is an absolute knockout.

Combining it with the bright honey of the orange blossom and the earthy coolness of the white lavender makes it seem almost spicy, yet not. It’s this juxtaposition that makes the scent so intriguing. Orange blossom and lavender are traditional aphrodisiacs and vanilla is ultra-feminine. YSL Libre Absolu Platine is incredibly sensual yet elegant. The bold, architectural bottle is gorgeous and will elevate your vanity’s aesthetic. Stark, angular glass encases a molten liquid platinum core echoing the duality of the perfume. The YSL logo appears to be gusseted onto the glass to increase the architectural vibe.

Libre L'Absolu Platine EDP is an intoxicating new fragrance from @yslbeauty Let me start off by saying, I'm not a huge fan of lavender. It's never quite worked for me, but when I smelled this fragrance, I was absolutely in love immediately! The notes are Orange Blossom Flower, Lavender White Lavender. This fragrance is definitely an Autumn/Winter fragrance with it's warm notes. I would put it in the same category as Black Opium. It has a slight spiciness to it. Just enough pizazz, but not over the top. This fragrance lasted me half the day before the notes started wearing off to a skin scent. The projection is very good the longevity is good/very good. Along with Libre Le Parfum EDP, this is definitely my second favorite out of the entire Libre collection.

Pros and Cons

So this is VERY similar to the OG Libre but smells a bit muskier to me - I assume it’s the extra lavender note but I honestly don’t get any lavender from this. I do like the original Libre better, but I like this enough to keep it in my collection and I’d still encourage people to give this a shot. I do agree with other reviews I’ve read that this could easily be a unisex scent and could definitely see a male using this as an everyday scent. Unless you’re a female who really likes bold scents, to me this is more of a “going out” scent or maybe a special occasion in the fall/winter. It’s pretty strong when you first spray it and even when it dries down you can still smell it really well - the longevity is great. Definitely one of those “walk by and your scent ... MoreSo this is VERY similar to the OG Libre but smells a bit muskier to me - I assume it’s the extra lavender note but I honestly don’t get any lavender from this.

It’s pretty strong when you first spray it and even when it dries down you can still smell it really well - the longevity is great. Definitely one of those “walk by and your scent lingers” type of scents. The bottle is really cool as well, definitely a plus there. Do I think it’s worth the price hike compared to the regular Libre? No. If price is a concern I’d just go with the OG Libre because they’re pretty similar, but if you want something different for your collection I’d 100% give this a go. Again, not MY favorite but I can see a lot of people liking this one, especially because it can easily be unisex.
