About Black Opium

Created by Yves Saint Laurent in 2014, Black Opium perfume bottles an exotic oriental blend in a glittery black bottle. You'll be swept away to exotic lands with one spritz of this heady blend of florals and warm spices.

Fragrance Family:

Patchouli

Scent Type:

Patchouli

Notes:

Juicy pear, orange blossom and spicy pink pepper top off this exotic scent, followed by warm heart notes of bitter almond, soft feminine jasmine, rich coffee and licorice. Cashmere, warm vanilla, woody cedar and earthy patchouli ground out the base notes.

Suggested Use

For long-lasting fragrance that you can carry throughout the day and to minimize the need for reapplying, focus on your pulse points behind your ears, at the base of your neck and on your wrists as well as warmer areas of the body, such as behind the knees and inside the elbow. These are the best places to apply your fragrance since the scent intensifies by the warmth of your body.

Hey, I'm Ashley. And today, I'll be reviewing Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent. This is the latest addition to YSL's Opium line. It's dark, warm, and sweet with a mysterious allure. Some of the notes include coffee bean, sambac jasmine, orange flower, vanilla, cedar, and patchouli. This delicious gourmand fragrance is enticing and absolutely addictive. It was inspired by glam rock, so it's extravagant and a little wild. All right, everyone. That's all for today.

Scent doesn't last

I received this product from FragranceX as a gift because I have worn the original Opium over 30 years. I love the smell of Black Opium; however, the scent only last about 30 minutes once sprayed on the skin. I'm extremely disappointed that no matter how heavily I spray it does not last for an
...
appropriate amount of time. This product was a waste of money. I have purchased many scents in the past from FragranceX, but this is by far the worst item ever purchased from FragranceX.

This is my 4th time or so ordering Black Opium. I love it.

I use it daily. I have purchased Black Opium 4 different times. My daughter is who got me hooked. Would love to see the price come down for future purchases. Not sure if this company offers free or low cost samples, but would be nice it possible. I like to know what the fragrance smells like before I put a lot of money in a small bottle and end up possibly not liking it.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Timeless favorite

I've had this perfume for over 10 years — I can't even remember exactly how long. Still love it. It opens differently at every stage, and the dry-down is definitely the best part. It keeps surprising me in a good way, even after all these years.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I Love Black Opium! It's my new signature perfume!

I have to be careful with fragrance, the ingredients tend to trigger migraines. I bought Black Opium blindly, I read reviews, I was only hesitant because of the patchouli. It seems to make the perfume wonderful!

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Gorgeous

This fragrance is just beautiful. I've had a signature fragrance for years(Mon Guerlain), and didn't think anything else could top that, but this is something I can wear every day, anytime. It's soft & enticing. From the first spray to dry down, it's gorgeous. The notes blend so well together and none of them are overpowering. It lasts for hours, and even when I think the scent is gone I get a surprise whiff of it. I can't imagine being without it!

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I would buy again and again until they stop making this

You only need to put on a little because you smell it immediately. Using too much would be over powering because the smell stays with you and it settles in your clothes.When you remove your clothes at the end of your day you can still smell the fragrance in your garment.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
