Gosh, I dont even know where to start with this fragrance. If I were to ever given a choice to choose one fragrance for the rest of my life, I will be picking YSL Black Opium with no doubts or second thoughts. When I first took a whiff, I knew I had to immediately purchase this right away.

It is so seductive and and rich, I wear this anytime whenever I want to stand out because this fragrance would last you hours! This is a parfum and I do prefer parfums than a toilette because it has a higher concentration of the scented oil than water or alcohol and it has a longer staying power. It gives off a youthful, confident, inviting, and badass scent that you can spray it for any occasion. It is definitely a scent to wear if you want a strong and overpowering scent but not in a bad way. It is most definitely is a warm and spicy fragrant family with key notes of black coffee, white flowers, and vanilla. It is not too bitter or too sweet, it has just the right balance in between which I adore. I will forever be repurchasing this fragrance and I definitely recommend picking this up whether a mini or a full version because this is worth your wallet!

Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium is a sweet, gourmand, intense fragrance, very sexy and seductive. The aroma makes me think of a Parisian pastry shop, in the morning, with a hot cup of intense dark coffee and a croissant aside. The fragrance smells to me like a coffee with nutmeg, chocolate and vanilla topping. It is sweet, gourmand and you can almost fell the taste of hot coffee on the tip of the tongue. It opens up with pink pepper, orange blossom and pear, giving that gourmand aromatic scent, quickly followed by coffee, jasmin, bitter almond and licorice, for that sweet spicy coffee I war talking about earlier, all layered down on a vanilla, patchouli, cedar and cashmere wood perfect mix. The sillage of this fragrance is very good and the fragrance is quite long ... MoreYves Saint Laurent Black Opium is a sweet, gourmand, intense fragrance, very sexy and seductive.

The design of the bottle should be noted separately, I really like it. There are great fragrances, but with a completely forgettable design. This is not the case, it is recognizable and just perfect for this fragrance. In appearance, the bottle slightly resembles asphalt, which is why I have associations with a big city and light rain. It is very successful, evening, original. Although this is not the first thing that is important in the aroma, it also plays a role. It is much more pleasant to have something interesting in the collection. As soon as you take the perfume in your hands, it feels like you are putting some kind of elixir on yourself. Immediately after application, the fragrance may seem a bit harsh, although pleasant. This is normal, many flavors do not ... MoreThe design of the bottle should be noted separately, I really like it. There are great fragrances, but with a completely forgettable design.

It is much more pleasant to have something interesting in the collection. As soon as you take the perfume in your hands, it feels like you are putting some kind of elixir on yourself. Immediately after application, the fragrance may seem a bit harsh, although pleasant. This is normal, many flavors do not open immediately. When I applied this perfume for the first time, after an hour and a half it subsided slightly, became more calm, but at the same moment it did not lose its bold zest and I liked it. The sharpness is gone, but a viscous caramel sweetness with coffee and other notes that complement the composition remains. I feel this aroma slightly sweet, a little coffee, but the sweetness is not vanilla and not banal, it is just pleasant, not suffocating, at the same time there is a note of nobility, something expensive, bold, making it clear that this is not an ordinary sweet aroma, it's special, you can also feel a slight note of pepper. But not repulsive and rude, but interesting and alluring. I want to breathe it in and enjoy it. But as I already wrote, you need to give a little time for the aroma to open and become calmer. If you try to describe it in one sentence - a warm fragrance with viscous sweetness and successful subsequent notes that add to their originality, which is why the perfume does not seem just sweet and coffeey, but feels very interesting. ☆•● DURABILITY FOR WHOM ●•☆ ► The aroma is quite persistent. In the morning the next day, it can still be felt quite a bit, it feels a little longer on clothes. That's a very good hold, in my opinion.

This iconic fragrance exudes a bold and daring spirit that's perfect for women who exude confidence and sensuality. The fragrance opens with a burst of adrenaline-pumping energy from the juicy and sweet notes of blackcurrant and pear, while the alluring aroma of orange blossom and jasmine sambac provide a subtle hint of floral sophistication. As the scent develops, it unfolds into a warm and sensual base of vanilla, patchouli, and coffee, which lingers on the skin for hours, leaving a hypnotic trail that is both captivating and alluring. Its exquisite blend of ingredients ensures that every whiff is a unique experience, evoking a sense of confidence and sophistication in the wearer.

I absolutely LOVE this version

The extreme version is exactly what I’d hoped for when I bought a bottle of the original black opium EDP last Christmas. My mum used to wear the original and it was so powerful. I’d love to sample that to see what it’s like now.I have autism, and use fragrance for grounding when I am in busy environments (mature student at university) The original Black Opium was really nice, you’d get a whiff here and there, but I couldn’t smell it on myself enough, for my needs.I bought this on a star gift offer at half price, a total blind buy, hoping the dialled up version would be everything I’d hoped for because I love the DNA of black opium.It is EVERYTHING I had hoped for, I use 6-8 squirts, I get a lot of compliments.

Perfume needs to counteract sensory overload to some degree for me, and this scent is bold, intriguing, dark and mysterious.The florals compliment the coffee so beautifully. I can’t drink coffee but I love the smell and it is very prominent in this.The Jasmine adds a beautiful, light floral which contrasts beautifully with the intensity of the coffee, I’m generally not a fan of vanilla, and patchouli has to be mixed correctly, but it adds lovely earthiness here, the vanilla adds creaminess, and rounds everything off beautifully.I can still smell this on clothes the day after, it’s amazing on a scarf, and my partner loves it. Most importantly it helps me with sensory overload.I ended up buying 2 at half price. I’m trying to ration it because as a student it’s a splurge but I love it soooo much. It’s delicious.I need to smell the original opium again. This reminds me of that in that it’s very powerful, original and distinctive.For me, wearing it is a very pleasant sensory stimuli which helps counteracts one’s such as noise. This one fully ticks all my boxes. I hope this is a flanker which stays around.

Love this fragrance

I've been wearing Black Opium now for several years. In my 20's I was a big fan of the original Opium fragrance, but as I got older I found that I preferred some of the classic Chanel fragrances like #5 and the original Coco. I decided to try Black Opium when I was looking for a lighter fragrance to wear in the spring and summer months and I'm so glad I did. The fragrance is gorgeous without being overly floral, which so many fragrances seem to be. There is something almost mysterious about Black Opium, which is why I love it so much and I get so many compliments on it. All that said, please remember that fragrance is incredibly personal and what smells amazing on me could smell completely different on someone else, because of varying body chemistry. However, I ... MoreI've been wearing Black Opium now for several years.
