Capeline By Yves Saint Laurent EDP Perfume

Sophisticated grandeur with a mysterious edge, the ‘capeline’ is the refined wide-brimmed hat that sailed from catwalks and garden parties to the glamorous haunts of chic Bohemians in the 1960s – an epitome of Parisian elegance. Throughout his work, Yves Saint Laurent played on the paradox of the ‘capeline’: a nonchalant way of going incognito yet the most couture of accessories, lending poise and flamboyance to his creations. Capeline Eau de Parfum encapsulates the enigmatic attitude of its namesake accessory. A sophisticated yet mysterious scent, it interplays between the stately beauty of lily, behind which hides vanilla absolute – warm and smooth, with the merest touch of leather. Lily was Yves Saint Laurent’s beloved lucky charm, given that its name in French, ‘lys’, forms an anagram of the couturier’s initials.
