A woody, spicy AFTER-SHAVE, king of all citrus fragrances, with sharp yet delightful notes, vibrant and confident masculinity, refined, irresistible—an AFTER-SHAVE of charm, one of the greatest of all time.

It is the first AFTER-SHAVE released by the house of YVES SAINT LAURENT PARFUMS.

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

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

This AFTER-SHAVE 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 produce the «Pour Homme» advertisement, the young designer did not hesitate to shock or even scandalize bourgeois society by posing nude in front of 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 in the center, the name above and the other details below in white.

Heavy, rectangular-square glass bottle with curved sides; the house’s logo and the other details are embossed in black in the center. Impeccable aesthetics, collectible.

Large, round cap in red (burgundy), with the house’s logo on top.

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

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

The product was imported packaged and manufactured in France, and distributed in Greece by BIONIKI SA (158 Alexandras Avenue, Athens), with us as its exclusive authorized distributors.
