    This fragrance is marketed towards younger women and it is supposed to symbolize the freshness of feminine youth. There are some things I really like about this, like the pretty purple bottle with...

    I definately don't think it smells disgusting but I'm pretty lukewarm about it. I can't quite place this scent because it doesn't smell floral, fruity, foody, chypre or anything I smelled before...

    Elle is a lovely fragrance-I love patchouli, and a whiff of it from the bottle is enough to put a smile on my face. However...I sprayed a little on and walked around with it a little bit...and...

    I'm also surprised by such hostility over this. Holy cow, folks, it's a pefume! You act like it killed your grandma and you must avenge her or something. If you don't like it, say that, but the...

    Hmmm.... I'm on the fence between Elle and The Beat. Both are floral woodies that have launched this year, and both are quite similar. The Beat (Burberry) is a sharper, brighter, warmer woodsy...

    This smells like the inside of a rat/gerbil cage!!! It is the smell of cedar chips and maybe the slight sweetness of urine. It is utterly disgusting and I seriously have no clue how a major...

    A somewhat odd mixture of floral and astringent scents. It's not horrible, but it's certainly not something I'd pay for.

    YSL Elle smells almost identical to Armani Diamonds to my nose. I'm sure it's the "fruit & patchouli" elements of both. Didn't have very high hopes, but mildly disappointed nonetheless. Was...

    I think I wanted to like this because of the name and the bottle. HATE it. Headache inducing, smells like bug spray. Worst fragrance I have ever smelled. Honestly. If you want a YSl perfume,...

    ELLE is my first YSL fragrance. I was really attracted to the vibrant hot pink bottle with gold details and it matches the scent. The scent is very vibrant and confident. Of the notes I find...

    I just have to step in and defend this product! I love this and this is a new favourite. YSL describes this as a 'vibrantly feminine' fragrance and it is supposed to be built on a pink berries -...

    Just sampled this, and am now trying desperately to wash it off. What a terrible combination of notes. This stuff is bad: headache-inducing, cloying, strong. Just another bad dept. store perfume.

    I liked this fragrance when I first sprayed it on (for about the first 10 minutes). It had a very nice light, citrusy smell. Then after the top notes disappeared, all that was left was a very heavy...

    I absolutely love this fragrance. Its main notes are patchouli, pink berries and peony. It is quite expensive at €96 for a 90ml bottle but one spray and it lasts the day on me. Strangers have even...
