Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Libre (2011) {New Fragrance} {Men's Cologne} {Celebrity-Endorsed Scent}
L'Homme Libre by Yves Saint Laurent is the latest flanker to arrive to take its place next to the original L'Homme (2006), the 7th men's fragrance in the US and the 9th in France. The tag line is "Break Free" and the perfume is said to be about the debate between freedom and fate. The name of the scent which means "free man" in French is destined to a younger demographic than the ones for L'Homme and La Nuit de L'Homme addressing itself to men who are both "unpredictable and serene."...
