Walk on the wild side with Babycat. A scent that will make you roar.
The olfaction:
In Babycat, the pod of the vanilla orchid remembers that, like the leopard, it is a creature of wild nature.
To magnify its dark side and tease out its claws, the Master Perfumer has created a sensual, enveloping suede accord combining exotic spices and sizzling resins. A blend that extends the sensual leathery facets of vanilla for an exceptionally potent trail. Like the feline print that inspires it, Babycat’s untameable essence takes you for a walk on the wild side...

The inspiration:
It’s raw. It’s couture. Forever iconic. A provocative classic.
No one has gone wilder for the sensual feline flair of the leopard print than Yves Saint Laurent. It was first sighted in the couturier’s collections on a silk dress in 1968. Since then, from the iconic Fall/Winter 1982-1983 couture collection to today’s cult designs, Yves Saint Laurent’s Babycat print has prowled its way onto evening dresses, pussy-bow blouses, killer stilettos and countless covetable accessories.
The leopard print is a symbol of untamed glamour. Deeply intertwined with the Yves Saint Laurent style, its presence throughout the house's history reflects not only a bold stylistic choice but also an affirmation of the YSL silhouette – fiercely raw and exquisitely sophisticated.
