YSL Beauty announced a new campaign for its Myslf Absolu fragrance with actor and brand ambassador Austin Buttler

With Myslf Absolu, Yves Saint Laurent Beauty reveals the highest elevation of its masculine icon. The epitome of YSL Beauty’s edgy attitude, encapsulated in a powerful sparkling trail.

The fragrance packaging follows the brand’s ‘Reduce Our Impact’ program with recycled materials. The glass bottle uses recycled glass, and the boxes are FSC Mix certified. 

Myslf Absolu turns the luxurious lacquering of the glass into a shiny, dark-silver mirror. A new, bold, tone-on-tone metallic finish that reflects the sparkling trail of the fragrance.

The iconic YSL Beauty Cassandre design dips into the surface. The Cassandre is molded directly into the glass rather than being an added plate.

The New Campaign

A captivating, award-winning actor who earned his first Golden Globe for his performance in the 2022 Baz Luhrmann biopic Elvis, Butler has since starred in Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg’s Netflix series Masters of the Air and in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two.

In Yves Saint Laurent Beauty’s new digital campaign for Myslf Absolu, Butler reveals his most exhilarating, joyful facet, embodying a new feel-good statement: “Feel it all, feel everything.”

The new digital campaign is directed by movie-maker and trouble-maker, Aidan Zamiri — an influential presence in pop culture who works across fashion, music, and film documentary. 

Driven by a remix of MYSLF by Wetrust featuring Ishmael, the film captures a more uninhibited, radiant sense of joyful emotions.

Fueled by a distinctive creative voice that stylishly blends humor and nostalgia with the surreal to create visuals that are artful and irreverent. 

The fragrance is revealed as the Myslf flag unfurls, held by Butler. It is the ultimate expression of self-celebration, embodying Myslf’s message of bold, individualistic freedom, independence, and authenticity.
