Title: Very Dissapointed!
Product review: I first tried YSL Rive Gauche many years ago and fell in love with it. Its unique fragrance haunted me and I used it for years. Then I somehow steered away from it until recently. I read the professional reviews and was aware of its 2003 reformulation under creatve direction by Tom Ford. I was also aware, from the reviews, that the Rive Gauche Intense stayed truer to the original formulation. I bought Rive Gauche Intense and was not dissapointed. When the bottle ran out, I decided to try Rive Gauche next. I cannot tell you how dissapointed I was. There was a barely visible ghost of the original fragrance, a mediocrity, not a trace of its bold originality and character that drew me to it many years ago. It is a shame! My recommendation is to stay away from this disgraceful reformulation and try Rive Gauche Intense instead.
