This is one of my favourites, nit the price is sky high.
I used it daily, therefore I would prefer it if it's a little bit cheaper, and i'm disappointed because I can't find it in Malta anymore. I don't know the reason for it, i've tried in every perfume establishment we have over here on the island.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Perfection in a bottle!
Rive Gauche is my all time favorite perfume! I love it for traveling because it comes in a metal bottle! It will never break if it falls off the counter!. The fragrance is so sexy and perfect! I get compliments all the time from it! It lasts from morning to night without having to refresh it! Rive Gauche is he most perfect fragrance on the planet!

Made me happy just to look at the bottle. That pretty blue. I still have one on my dresser from many years ago. Took it with me through several moves. It was my signature. Finally stopped looking for it several years ago in every possible store. And now here it is.

In a heartbeat !!)
I used this product daily after discovering it, around fifty years ago, when I was a young, classic, lovely woman. At least that's what everyone told me, even children. Rive Gauche went perfectly with me. I loved it. And today, Christmas Day, 2020, I'm watching and old Carol Burnette TV show where she asks questions of her audience, one being, "What is your favorite perfume?", and she thinks for a moment and out of all the perfumes in this universe, she says RIVE GAUCHE ! Her reply immediately took me back. Having Google now, unlike way back then, I found Rive Gauche again. I must have it on this old body once more ! I am worth it !!

I would buy this product again and again
I love love love it! I'm super happy to find it again. I never thought I would. I used it in the 1980s and then couldn't find it again. The perfume is kind of pricey but I want some of it. When are you going to get the small quantities in I can't wait! I would definitely recommend to my friends and anyone that would listen to me and I'm usually a good salesperson.

All time favorite perfume
Used this perfume in my early teens, I would steal it from my mom. Growing up this became harder and harder to find. And more costly. But well worth every penny! This scent to me is actually pretty soft, I've had some folks say it smells like fresh powder, I do agree. I live in Texas so it's always so hot here but this scent is perfect for Houston. It is not overpowering but you do have to refresh it early afternoon. My only wish is that ysl made a lotion and powder in this so I could layer it. But again, I highly recommend this!! For the young and us older ladies, it's perfect.

Questions and Answers
Q: How does YSL Rive Gauche perfume smell?
A: Wearing Rive Gauche is like stepping into a fresh flower garden. The sweet middle notes of iris, jasmine and gardenia pair perfectly with the sweet and citrusy top notes of lemon, bergamot and honey suckle. Base notes of sandalwood, oakmoss and amber keep the perfume from becoming too sweet.
Q: Where do you apply Rive Gauche?
A: To increase the longevity of the fragrance, spray Rive Gauche perfume onto your major pulse points such as behind your ears, at the base of your neck, on the wrists, behind the knees and in the inner elbows.
Q: What is the fragrance concentration??
A: Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche is an eau de toilette. Eau de toilettes contain as much as 12% pure perfume to create strong scent notes. Eau de toilettes are about as strong as eau de colognes but not as strong as eau de parfums.
Q: Is Rive Gauche perfume for women or men?
A: YSL Rive Gauche was created with women in mind. However, anybody who enjoys floral fragrances can wear it.
Q: Does Rive Gauche perfume last long?
A: Eau de toilettes like Rive Gauche have an average longevity of 3-4 hours. Individual factors such as your body chemistry and the weather in which you wear the perfume determine exactly how long and strong your fragrance is. If you dab a bit of petroleum jelly onto your wrists and other pulse points before applying your perfume, it will take longer to react to your body chemistry and dissipate. You can also increase the longevity by showering with similarly scented products and adding your fragrance right after you shower and moisturize. Finally, you can spritz the fragrance into the air and walk through it so that it sticks to your hair and clothing.
Q: What fragrances smell similar?
A: Fragrances that smell similar to YSL Rive Gauche women's perfume include Calandre Paco by Rabanne, Eau de Calandre Paco by Rabanne and Climat by Lancome.
Q: What season should I wear Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche?
A: The top note of sweet peach and zesty lemon combine with the middle notes of seductive rose and fresh jasmine to create Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Perfume, making it the perfect fragrance to wear during warmer weather.
Q: Where can I buy it?
A: Perfume.com is perhaps one of the best online fragrance retailers because we offer the widest selection of authentic perfumes and colognes, competitive pricing and top-notch customer service. Get YSL Rive Gauche perfume at a discount today!
