How can I tell whether a bottle of Youth-Dew Eau de Parfum is the current formulation?
A batch code alone does not tell you which formula is in a bottle.
To check a particular bottle, ask Estée Lauder or the retailer about its batch code. Owners' side-by-side comparisons are not confirmation from the house.
What does the concentration label on Youth-Dew Eau de Parfum mean?
Youth-Dew Eau de Parfum is sold as Eau de Parfum (EDP), a label generally used for a higher fragrance concentration than eau de toilette.
No body standardises these labels, so one does not tell you how long a scent lasts or how far it carries, and versions sold under the same name can differ.

We file Youth-Dew Eau de Parfum under Amber, Spicy, Resinous & balsamic and Woody.

More from Estée Lauder
Beautiful Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). One owner, given it as a high-school Christmas present in the mid-1980s, now wears nothing else, and for many it has been a signature since the 1980s: a lush bouquet of rose, lily, tuberose and lily of the valley on creamy sandalwood.
Pleasures Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). Cut grass and dewy white flowers, lily, peony and lilac, as clean as an expensive soap: the 1990s spring floral that many have worn for decades and still get asked about.
White Linen Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). Sheets drying in the sun, or a bar of good white soap: sparkling aldehydes on rose, lily of the valley and orris, drying to vetiver and moss.
Modern Muse Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). Strangers stop wearers to ask what it is, and one owner's car still smells of it at the end of the workday: a white-floral bouquet led by jasmine, with honeysuckle, tuberose and lily on patchouli, vanilla and a woody musk.
Sensuous Eau de Parfum
Eau de Parfum (EDP). Sun-warmed skin after a day outdoors, to one wearer; the softest angora and cashmere, to another: honeyed woods and amber with a haze of white flowers and pepper.
