Sunshine and citrus: The Fragrance that feels like summer

If you already dream of sun-kissed beaches and warm sunsets, channel that summer energy with a luminous scent. LIBRE L’Eau Nue by Yves Saint Laurent embodies the liberating feeling of endless summer days while enhancing your skin with a radiant glow from sunrise to sunset.

There’s something undeniably magical about summer—the golden glow of the sun on your skin, the warm breeze carrying whispers of citrus trees and delicate florals. It’s a season of spontaneity, of lightness, of pure, unfiltered freedom. And now, Yves Saint Laurent captures that feeling in a bottle with their latest scent, LIBRE L’Eau Nue, their first alcohol-free fragrance*, designed to leave a radiant, luminous signature on your skin.

In a world where fragrance is often associated with alcohol-based formulations, LIBRE L’Eau Nue breaks convention. It is not just a perfume—it’s a Parfum de Peau, a scent designed to work in harmony with your skin, enhancing its natural warmth rather than masking it. Free from alcohol, it offers a soft, intimate veil of fragrance that lingers effortlessly, creating a glow-like effect that feels as though it’s an extension of you.

A sun-kissed citrus floral escape

Inspired by the golden landscapes of the Mediterranean, this version of LIBRE is an ode to sun-drenched freedom. The scent opens with the zesty brightness of juicy mandarin, a note that immediately evokes carefree summer mornings. As it settles, a radiant orange blossom blooms—a sensual, white floral that brings depth and warmth, like skin kissed by the afternoon sun. Together, these elements create a balance of freshness and sensuality, making this fragrance perfect for those who want to embody the liberating feeling of endless summer days.

How to wear it

Unlike traditional perfumes, which can sometimes feel overpowering, LIBRE L’Eau Nue is designed for a more personal, intimate experience. Simply spritz it onto your usual spots, the pulse points—wrists, neck, collarbone. This will let the scent melt into your skin and develop uniquely throughout the day, but, for a more immersive experience, mist it generously over your décolletage, arms, and even your hair, allowing the fragrance to wrap around you like a soft summer breeze. The perfect accompaniment to your summer outfit, think a flowy maxi dress.

The alcohol-free* formula means it’s gentler on the skin, making it an ideal choice for those with sensitivities or anyone looking for a fragrance that feels light, fresh, and naturally radiant.

Yves Saint Laurent has always celebrated bold femininity, confidence, and self-expression. With LIBRE L’Eau Nue, that ethos is carried into a fragrance that invites you to experience scent in a new way—without boundaries, without limits, without compromise. It’s the perfect companion for those long, endless summer days, where time slows, and the sun never quite sets, all of which we can’t wait for.

So, this season, embrace a new kind of freedom through your fragrance—one that’s luminous, sensual, and beautifully liberating. Even after the first few hours of wear, LIBRE L’Eau Nue is more than just a fragrance; it’s a feeling, a moment, a memory waiting to unfold.
