Yves Saint Laurent
Black Opium
Eau de Parfum · Women
Black Opium is a bold coffee-and-vanilla gourmand with a floral core. Pear and mandarin add a quick sparkle on top, orange blossom and jasmine bring a white-floral warmth in the middle, and black coffee, vanilla and patchouli anchor the base. The result is dark, sweet and slightly edgy, more evening than daytime. It works for dates, nights out and colder months, and it appeals to people who like their gourmands rich and confident rather than soft. This is an eau de parfum.
