Jazz
Picture the inside of a handbag. That is the first ten seconds of Yves Saint Laurent Jazz.

How it moves
Up top: lavender, bergamot, lemon and artemisia. Enjoy them; they will not stay. Jasmine, geranium and cinnamon are where it actually lives. By evening it is vetiver, sandalwood, leather and Tonka Bean, and it is better for it.
Who made it
Jean-Louis Sieuzac composed it in 1988, for Yves Saint Laurent in France. Launched in 1988 in a black-and-white striped bottle referencing piano keys, Jazz is a classic aromatic fougère of the era.
