The YSL Libre Eau De Parfum bottle is wrapped with the iconic, intertwined, three-letter, YSL monogram logo, designed by the famous art deco graphic design firm Cassandre, in 1961. The logo is nailed into the glass. The black cap is made of lacquer. The neck of the bottle has a gold chain collar. The perfume, created by Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaim, was launched in 2019. The scent is floral with lavender essence from France, orange blossom from Morocco, and a touch of vanilla.
The YSL Libre Eau De Parfum perfume bottle was designed by Suzanne Dalton. The design was awarded the US design patent, USD913798S, titled Perfume bottles, on March 23, 2021. The Applicant was Yves Saint Laurent Parfums, in Paris, France. The patent contains 19 drawing sheets of the bottle, some of which are photographs. Although the patent title refers to several bottles, there is only one described and patented. The patent Figure 1 is included below, together with an image of the marketed bottle.
As a reminder : “a utility patent” protects the way an article is used and works (35 U.S.C. 101), while a “design patent” protects the way an article looks (35 U.S.C. 171) [MPEP Chapt. 1502.01; [R-07.2015]].
