Yves Saint Laurent: Rive Gauche, Eau de Toilette

I love Yves Saint Laurent perfumes but with two particular favourites. My evening favourite is Opium but my daytime favourite perfume has to be Rive Gauche. Rive Gauche is a very distinct frangrance, deliciously French and very sophisticated. Once you have tried or smelt this scent you will never forget it. It is difficult to describe as it has nothing to compare or liken it to. In addition, it does smell slightly different on everyone. it is certainly not a sweet scent and I wouldn't say particularly flowery, it is quite citrusy, quite musky and definitely exotic smelling. People associate other people with their scent and everyone will remember that you ...  Read the complete review

If you're looking for a perfume to buy as a present for a lady of any age - then look no further than Rive Gauche by Yves St Laurent.

It also means that it would be an excellent choice of gift for someone whose tastes you weren't quite sure of. The design of the packaging and the containers holding the perfumes and powders are all a distinctive blue, silver and black, which makes them ...  Read the complete review

Rive Gauche is a very strong perfume and definitely one for the evening. It is by Yves Saint Laurent and is very popular, many people I know wear it. Even after YSL bringing out many new perfumes none seem to beat this one. I have tested out some of the recent ones but still do not like any of them as much as this. Thi perfume could be worn in day but I think it is for night. It comes in different measures but I have the 50ml bottle which is around £26+ I am not too sure. The smell is hard to describe, I would probably describe it as flowery but very strong. You do not need to wear lots of this fragrance so one spritz would be enough. This stays on very well so ...  Read the complete review

This perfume is like marmite... it is not like many other perfumes which are commonly floral based, it is unique and great to wear whatever the occasion. The packaging for this perfume again like ...  Read the complete review
