A warm, woody, spicy fragrance with a wonderfully masculine aura, sparkling—a magnificent fragrance.

“Fashion fades, style is eternal,” said Yves Saint Laurent.

This was the fifth men’s fragrance launched by the house of YVES SAINT LAURENT PARFUMS.

AWARD (1989) from the Fragrance Foundation : YVES SAINT LAURENT JAZZ  Fragrance of the Year – Men’s Prestige - Fragrance of the Year – Men’s Prestige.

In 1986, Yves Saint Laurent bought back the Charles of the Ritz brand from Squibb (a pharmaceutical company) for $500,000,000, and now owned the Fragrance and Cosmetics division.

This is what is known as the Second Era (1987–1992), under the name Parfums Corp—the American Years.

This JAZZ fragrance belongs to (Parfums Corp. - American Years) – (Second Era - The American Years 1986–1992). It was made in France, with production at Yves Saint Laurent’s factory in Paris.

The black-and-white packaging and bottle were designed to resemble piano keys.

The product, packaged and manufactured by PARFUMS YVES SAINT LAURENT PARIS, was imported into Greece by YSELINA S.A. (29–31 NEOFROΝOS, ATHENS), and we were the exclusive sellers as authorized distributors.

As you will see in the photo section, there are no photos of the inside of the box or the bottle, because it would not be right to do so and deprive the buyer-collector of the joy and pleasure of being the first to open a product after many decades—that is, a full 35 years.
