A Bold, Berry-Laced Opening

From the very first spritz, Libre Berry Crush sets itself apart with a burst of juicy raspberry and mandarin.
The raspberry note is the true star — bright, slightly tart, and almost mouthwatering. It adds a delicious contrast to the more classic floral DNA of the original Libre.

This opening feels energetic and uplifting, like a playful reinterpretation of a fragrance you already know and love. It’s fruit-forward, but never overly sweet — maintaining that refined YSL balance.

The Signature Libre Heart, Reimagined

At its core, the fragrance stays true to the Libre identity with its iconic pairing of lavender and orange blossom.
This familiar floral duo grounds the composition, bringing elegance and structure to the brighter fruit notes.

What’s different here is how seamlessly the fruit blends into the florals — creating a softer, more gourmand-leaning interpretation of Libre. The result feels less sharp, more enveloping, and undeniably addictive.

A Creamy, Warm Dry Down

As the scent settles, it reveals a comforting base of bourbon vanilla, musk, and creamy coconut.
This is where Berry Crush truly comes into its own. The warmth of vanilla and the smoothness of coconut add a subtle richness that lingers beautifully on the skin.

It’s not heavy or overly sweet, but rather a soft, glowing warmth that enhances the fruity opening and floral heart.

A New Mood for Libre

Compared to the original Libre, which leans more aromatic and structured, Berry Crush feels warmer, sweeter, and more playful. It keeps that signature YSL confidence but softens it with a touch of indulgence — making it perfect for both daytime wear and evening moments.

Final Thoughts

Libre Berry Crush is a beautifully balanced fruity-floral fragrance that adds a fresh dimension to the Libre collection. With its juicy raspberry twist, luminous florals, and creamy dry down, it feels both familiar and new. It is a scent that captures freedom with a sweeter, more sensual edge.

If you love fragrances that are feminine, modern, and just a little bit addictive, this latest YSL launch is one to have on your radar.

The Comparison: Berry Crush vs. L’Eau Nue

Editor’s Note: If you’re torn between the new fruity intensity and the more transparent side of the Libre line, it's worth noting the contrast with Libre L’Eau Nue. While Berry Crush leans into a bold, jammy gourmand profile that demands attention, L’Eau Nue is its whisper-quiet sibling; it is a “skin-scent” focused on raw, airy luminosity and weightless aldehydes. If Berry Crush feels a bit too “loud” for your taste and you crave something that mimics the warmth of bare skin, head over to my detailed YSL Libre L’Eau Nue review here to compare the two before making your final pick.

For makeup, the new YSL LoveShine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss (review here) are a keeper and I have been using them non-stop for hydration and long-lasting comfort.

Tutti Twilly Eau de Parfum

This Tutti Twilly is the creation of the talented perfumer Christine Nagel. The perfume demonstrates a fun and playful character in its highly concentrated Eaud e Parfum, Eau de parfum. It is inspired by the free spirit of Hermes ladies, and therefore its daring and lightheartedness is not to be underestimated. 

Tutti Twilly is a floral and fruity perfume that combines three significant notes: ginger blossom, mellow lychee, and enveloping musk. If you know any previous editions, Tutti Twilly will surely be your next love.

The previous editions.

 The original | Twilly hermes Eau de parfum | Floral and spicy.

This is the first Twilly scent and the warmest of the three. You can easily pick up on the ginger note in this edition.

Twilly Eau de Ginger | Eau de parfum | Floral

Second to have been released, this edition takes on a fresher and floral approach with a Peony heart.

The bottle.

The design of the Twilly bottle represents a lantern-shaped bottle. Capturing the external light, the perfume showcases the stunning lychee-red color. Like all Twilly fragrances, Tutti is finished with the iconic hand-tied silk ribbon. Thus, the Twilly d'Hermès family evokes the silk métier in two ways: the silk twill scarf and the Twilly, a small, joyful, colorful silk ribbon. Moreover, the Twilly is an Iconic fashion accessory to be worn in endless ways. It is often worn as a head scarf or to decorate the Hermes bag handles.

My experience.

Each year, Hermes surprises me with their Autumn scents. Stepping away from the cliche spicy and intense fall perfumes, Tutti Twilly allows a slow transformation of the seasons. I love how dynamic the Lychee note is and how the ginger perfectly mixes with it. In other words, the perfume is warm and sensual.

Although part of the Twilly family, the Tutti edition transforms into a fresher, easy-to-wear note. I am lucky to have tried the scent and recommend it for Autumn. Overall, Twilly is one of my favorite scents, and the ginger notes never fail to awaken me.
