Yves Saint Laurent Opium Eau De Toilette 50 ml

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.

Smells amazing . I love the notes of coffee, it’s great for day or night wear and I always get compliments when I’m wearing it, I love all different perfumes but this is definitely one of my favourites. It’s not cheap but it’s very good quality and the smell lasts all day. I love the bottle too it’s really pretty and it sprays out a nice even mist. There are several sizes to chose from but I usually buy the 100ml as it’s best value for money. It seems to diffuse into my skin really nicely as a small amount of the perfume leaves a lovely long lasting aroma with a strong but not overpowering scent. It’s true to say perfumes don’t need to be too heavy to have the perfect sillage!

Few years ago, I became the biggest fan of the YSL brand. I love discovering new fragrances by this brand. What I love about this particular one is that it has a strong fragrance but in an elegant and sensual way. It's a combination of coffee, vanilla, and white flowers. It's the perfect fragrance for a big date, gala event, or an important life event like a proposal. I cannot say what age this would be perfect for as everyone preference is different. Me, personally I love the boldness and the strong scent. I love that it stays on all day. It's a perfect perfume for a sophisticated, classy, modern woman! Ideal gift for the holidays, birthdays, and anniversary or just because you want to impress your significant other!

I am in love with this perfume and this is the only perfume I can think of to gift all my girlfriends for the holidays!! I highly recommend this YSL Black Opium because I can't stop wearing it!! The bottle has a unique bold design on it and looks gorgeous on my beauty shelf as well. The smell lasts most of the day which is great with just a simple spray.

Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium Eau De Parfum is an absolute sensory delight. The intoxicating blend of coffee, vanilla, and floral notes creates a captivating and alluring fragrance.

It's a truly indulgent experience that leaves a lasting impression. Black Opium is, without a doubt, a timeless fragrance that exudes confidence and glamour.

This a must have fragrance! My husband surprised me and ordered this perfume as a surprise gift the other day. I was beyond pleasantly surprised. This is a seductive, sexy and intoxicating fragrance that falls under the warm and spicy fragrance family. It has key notes of black coffee, white flowers and vanilla. Which is always my date night favorite. It only took one spritz on my wrist for for me to fall completely in love with this sexy, irresistible scent. I sprayed this sexy, dark fragrance on my pulse points such as my wrists, and of course, just a few spritzes on my clothing. I love the longevity of this scent. It lasts throughout the day and night and it lingers on my clothing even longer. I went to put my clothes in the washing machine and I got a huge rush ... MoreThis a must have fragrance!

It is perfect for daytime as well as a glam night out with my husband. I love the packaging for this fragrance. It’s gorgeous. It comes in a luxurious heavy black bottle that holds the mysterious pink perfume that can be seen through the clear circle in the middle of the bottle. It’s the perfect addition to my vanity, looking stunning and seductive. It is a fabulous fragrance to add to my new collection. This is a great scent for fall and can take you right into winter. I will be purchasing this again when this fragrance runs out. If you like deep, strong, sexy notes, Black Opium is that. Highly, highly recommend!

Black Opium by YSL is so overhyped and overrated. It is a spicy-sweet perfume. There are very nice floral notes in it that are similar to other YSL perfumes. But the notes that stand out the most are pink pepper and vanilla. I really like the florals in it, but vanilla is way too strong and makes it overly sweet. I personally think that any perfume that has vanilla as a dominant scent is basic and easy made. The lasting power of this perfume is weak, only 2-3 hours, and the projection is medium. Almost every young adult woman uses this perfume, so it's not original. Besides all that, it will be a good blind present for a teenager or somebody in their early 20s.

I received this sample of Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent and fell in love with this incredible fragrance! Warm and sexy scent. This oriental spicy fragrance has a blend of coffee, pink pepper, orange blossom, jasmine, vanilla, patchouli, and cedar notes. Gives off a very seductive, romantic aroma while wrapping you in the most divine luxury fragrance. This is such an attractive smell and not too powerful at all. A little spray goes a long way and lasts HOURS!! This is a great scent for fall and can take you right into winter. I will be purchasing a full-size bottle of this fragrance when this one runs out. If you like deep, strong, sexy notes, Black Opium is that. Highly, highly recommend!

God I loved Opium! It was an instant, and I mean instant, hit. Everyone was buzzing about it, and all of us were scrambling to get a bottle. But Opium hates me! It smells like celery on me. I am not kidding. It is one of the very few perfumes I have loved that just does not love me back. I finally had to confront the awful truth about Opium and give my bottle away. And, to be honest, Opium does not smell good on everybody. It usually smells like a mess of spiced cabbage. But on those few lucky women who possess that right balance of whatever it is, Opium smells absolutely amazing, almost heaven-like. I LOVE YLS its just like I've says I'm almost all my father reviews, NOT ALL SCENTS SMELL THE GREAT IT SMELL HORRIBLE ON EVERYONE, ONCE APPLIED ON TO SOMEONES SKIN, THE ... MoreGod I loved Opium!

My favourite all time fragrance

Beautiful fragrance which I have worn for decades. I still prefer the original Opium though (YSL changed the fragrance slightly a few years ago) but even so it still remains my favourite. A warm oriental fragrance which lasts for hours. I wear it everyday though I can see why some people would say this too heavy for daytime nor is it a summer fragrance. Nonetheless I wouldn’t wear anything else as it brings back so many memories and I do get compliments on how lovely it smells.Always purchase from Debenhams as they seem to offer the best price often with free delivery.

I love this perfume and wear no other! It is so “my scent“ that when my daughter Jodi was in Baltimore, she smelled someone walking by with opium on and it made her homesick for me. People have tried to get me to switch to other perfumes, but the original is the best! I am going to try the green opium green and opium red to see what the differences are. I also have the black opium. I also layer my opium with the silk body lotion. I still use the body powder that I was able to buy on eBay however, I don’t use that quite as much. If you like the woodsy scent, I strongly, strongly recommend that you purchase opium. You will not be disappointed!
