Yvo van Regteren Altena's ambitions to make the world smell better recently culminated in the debut of the world’s very first exclusive, eco-friendly, scented screenwash for spoiled drivers only.
L'Essence de L'Automobile is a perfumed screenwash which will give spoiled drivers a brief but very delicate sensation of an ultra-fresh summer breeze in their car.
Millions of liters of chemical windscreen washer fluid flow over our high ways every year. YVRA 1965 gives the ecological answer with both an eco-friendly and delicious smelling wiper fluid.
Weary of screenwashes that are crammed with a harsh synthetic smell, Van Regteren Altena developed an ideal alternative. L’Essence de l’Automobile. A luxurious screenwash that won’t assault your senses with chemical scents, but invigorates your four-wheeler with the delicate YVRA 1965.
YVRA 1965 is created in honor of Porfirio Rubirosa. He was a jet-set pioneer, charmer, race car driver and talented polo player. He was widely seen to be in the same class as Don Juan and Casanova, and was married to the two richest women in the world.
The screenwash comes with an eye-catching 2500 ml jerrycan with the words: L’Essence de l’Automobile. If you love your car, only the best is good enough.
Let our customers speak for us
from 452 reviewsI’ve never smelled such an intensive scent! It takes you down in the deepest hell and lets you uprise in a beautiful heaven. Pure deepest erotic!
Unlike any other scent I ever owned. Powerful, captivating, long lasting. Would immediately buy a bigger bottle if available.
This is the stuff made for a true gentleman
Wunderbarer Duft.
Flakon super für unterwegs und von exzellenter Qualität
Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem Duft! Riecht außergewöhnlich und man wird darauf angesprochen! Kein Duft „von der Stange“! Ein bißchen müsste noch an der „Ausdauer“ des Duftes gefeilt werden, dass er etwas länger hält!
Just perfect. I expected something special and it really is
Heerlijke geur in een mooi, handig mee te nemen verpakking,
Don´t know which one out of the 3 scents is gonna be my favourite.
I guess it´s the 1979 because it´s closest to my year of birth.
But let me finish the samples and I will tell you :-)
The Pack gave me a good idea of the fragrances. It enabled me to my the one of my liking. Otherwise it os not possible to purchace such things online. Thank you.
Perfect men's fragrance. The fragrance is a dreamy reflection of the year 1979 smells earthy, spicy, woody, camphor-like, wet earth and green leaves. You can also detect slightly leathery and even sweet notes. It has a dark character and brings depth and sensuality to perfumes.
Top: Lemon, Black Pepper
Heart: Patchouli and Cedar all, patchouli gives a perfume a soothing and luxurious touch.
Base: Amber, Moss and Musk.
In his second fragrance, the heavier timbre of woody and aromatic ingredients evokes a very different mood.
It's great. No messing about. I'm here. They know. And I like it.
Very sophisticated scents, a pleasure to wear them, not invasive, personally I prefer your first and second releases. Anyway, beautiful all of them.
I like the subtile smell, rich and long lasting effects.
I would just go ahead and buy the normal sized bottle instead of this. You will not be disappointed.
A message from the founder
As a style and travel journalist, I have immersed myself in the world of seductive scents from an early age. Thanks to my interviews and close contacts with several renowned perfumers, I have been active in the world of niche perfumes myself since 2017. With my scents I aim to offer an inspiring alternative in a world dominated by commercial fragrances. In composing my scents, I am therefore attracted to the world of original thinkers and dandies.
After all, the dandy lifestyle is characterized by individuality and an eye for quality, while usually also being quite extravagant and cosmopolitan. This is exactly what we strive for at YVRA: originality, flamboyance and, of course, always an eye for refinement.
