Hello, I've found a coat which I really like, unfortunately the seller cannot vouch for its authenticity. So my question is, does this look genuine to you? If so, do you think it's one of the good Yves Saint Laurent old garments or a more recent one of lesser quality? Thank you for your input.

Looks fake to me; also the "Pour Homme" line is a diffusion line and very poor quality even when it is real.

I’m not terribly familiar with YSL but the tag looks really poorly done and there doesn’t appear to be a quality finish to the coat. It looks like a thrifted coat with a fake label sewn in.
Good thing he’s at least being honest about it.
