Yeah I was thinking of getting a dupe, even just to smell it again and feel the nostalgia hahaRogue Perfumes do a dupe that's almost identical.
YSL Cinema is my favorite too. I'm looking to buy it again but I'm confused bc there is 2 places I could buy from, Boots & Brown Thomas. Both have it listed but they list different fragrance notes on each site..... Brown Thomas sounds like it matches the smell I remember and Boots sounds different, but IDK if it's just a mistake or . Any advise? Also I can't go to store to test it unfortunately.I got YSL Libre (I prefer how the Platine one smells or me but I'm grateful that I got a 100ml bottle of the standard one as they're not cheap) and Burberry Goddess.
Goddess was a blind request for me based on the notes on Frahrantica. I really like it. It reminds me of the smell of Imperial Leather soap, which I love, although might not be an appealing comparison to a lot of people. It's lavendery and vanilla but not cloying, just a nice, comforting smell. Longevity isn't great though, I can't smell it on me by the end of the day.
Meanwhile I just put one spray of Libre on my wrist and now my glass of wine tastes like it. I love YSL fragrances though, my all time favourite is Cinema, I just adore it, it's like... a grown up smell without being basic or old lady and isn't quite like anything else (except the sadly discontinued Trouble by Boucheron which was similar-but-better IMO), close second is Manifesto.
Just checked that now. Brown Thomas description matches way more with Fragrantica. Boots description is way off with nothing in common. There is only a €10 difference in price so BT it is. Thank you!Did you check it against the notes in Fragrantica?
I suspect they're the same product, and Boots got the notes wrong.YSL Cinema is my favorite too.

I've never tried it but tempted to try it now and see if I like itI suspect they're the same product, and Boots got the notes wrong.
It can be hard to get hold of. I went to the YSL counter in the Trafford Centre and asked why, and basically they don't produce huge quantities of it and only sell at flagship YSL counters because it's not that popular. He basically said they keep it going for people like us, it has a hardcore fan base who love it. I wound be devastated if it was discontinued!
