Fragrance information:

1988: the world took its first breath of Jazz Yves Saint Laurent. A masculine fragrance from the chypre and aromatic families. Yves Saint Laurent and Jean-Francois Latty worked their magic — and the result speaks for itself. Jazz is part of the Jazz collection. The fragrance is presented as eau de toilette.

It carries a moderate sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. It settles in and stays — the longevity is genuinely high. Made in France. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The note pyramid of Jazz unfolds as a continuous scent journey, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Yves Saint Laurent is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de toilette sets the right density and pace of development.

At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Spicy, Aromatic, Citrus and Green. The framework further includes Floral, Whiteflower, Ambery and Wood.

At the opening of the pyramid you detect spicy sparkling top notes: Anise, Basil, Bergamot and Cardamom.

At the core of development you sense Clove, Geranium, Iris and Jasmine keeping a opulent floral direction.

The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral with each one in a clear role. Secondary accord layers such as Musc, Wood, Powdery and Amber add depth to the backdrop. The stylistic positioning is masculine, which makes the scent profile easier to read. In longevity terms High indicates a stable lasting impression.

In summary Jazz sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
