BLACKPINK’s Rosé – Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Toilette
As Saint Laurent’s brand ambassador, Rosé has been a mainstay in front rows, campaigns, and magazine editorials.

An ode to freedom — libre translates to free in French — this fragrance is a gender-bending product created following a structure generally associated with masculine fragrances but repurposed to add a warm and floral finish — the best of both worlds.
