A woody, spicy AFTERSHAVE, king of all citrus fragrances, with sharp yet delightful notes, vibrant and confident masculinity, refined and irresistible—a captivating AFTERSHAVE, one of the greatest of all time.

This was the first AFTERSHAVE launched by YVES SAINT LAURENT PARFUMS.

AWARD (1974) from the Fragrance Foundation : YVES SAINT LAURENT POUR HOMME Fragrance of the Year – Men’s Luxury.

In 1963, the American cosmetics company Charles of the Ritz began working with YVES SAINT LAURENT.

This AFTERSHAVE is from the First Era (1963 - 1986), made in France, and produced at the Yves Saint Laurent factory, which belonged to the same group as Charles of the Ritz, which owned 80% of Yves Saint Laurent.

To create the advertisement for “Pour Homme,” the young designer did not hesitate to shock or even scandalize polite society by posing nude before Jeanloup Stieff’s camera. The slogan was, “This is my Eau de Toilette, now it can be yours…” This unprecedented advertisement obviously caused a real scandal. 

Glossy red (burgundy) box, with the house’s logo in black at the center, the name above and the other details below in white.

Heavy, rectangular square glass bottle with curved sides, the house’s logo embossed in black at the center along with the other details; aesthetically flawless and collectible.

Red (burgundy), large, round cap with the house’s logo on top.

The beautiful red packaging and understated bottle were designed by the famous designer Pierre Dinand.

The heavy, transparent bottle was made by French artisans at Saint-Gobain-Desjonqueres, marked with the SGD logo, a global leader in glass packaging for luxury fragrances.

The product, packaged and made in France, was imported and distributed in Greece by VIONIKI SA (158 Alexandras Avenue – Athens), and we sold it exclusively as authorized distributors.
