More about Yves Saint Laurent Babycat
A bold and daring oriental fragrance that captures the power of seduction. Inspired by the iconic YSL leopard print first seen on a 1968 silk dress, Babycat opens with a fiery burst of pink and black pepper before revealing a heart of sacred olibanum and precious saffron. The base envelops you in the warmth of bourbon vanilla, smooth cedarwood, and a seductive suede accord. This long-lasting scent morphs from peppery intensity to sultry-sweet gourmand elegance with animalic undertones.
