I LOVE this scent it's exquisite!
My friend came to visit during Thanksgiving from England. When I hugged her at the airport the aroma was so unique I had to know what she was wearing. She was wearing Black Opium. I went to every department store looking for this product, no one was selling it in the US at that time! It is sensuous,...

Not for me
I was hoping to like this fragrance since I do like Opium and LOVE Belle D'Opium, but this version is not for me. The floral component is overwhelming and gave me a headache. I'm sure it will smell lovely on someone else, but I will stick with Belle D'Opium.

LOVE IT! I wish I bought it sooner!
I absolutely LOVE this perfume! I wish I bought it sooner! It smells amazing and is so long lasting! It has become my new favorite perfume and I find myself reaching for this one more than my other perfumes! I got the 3 oz and I'm so glad I did and got it for a great price! I highly recommend it!
Great!
This smells amazing! Every time I wear it, my husband compliments it.
My established winter perfume
Black Opium Eau de Parfum is slightly less vanilla heavy than Black Opium Le Parfum, but both are delectable. Eau de Parfum is slightly crisper, with more floral and coffee notes, but it's never powdery. Le Parfum lives up to its name with a longer lasting scent with the same or slightly fewer spritz. For both, I spray them at the roots of my hair at the back of my head and between my shoulder blades. The scent stays in my hair until washed. Its projection isn't very far for the strength of the scent, but I find its sillage, when applied to my back, perfect for being noticeable without being heavy. This isn't a light scent; if someone in your life is sensitive to scents then this may be too much for their nose or allergies to handle. I step outside if someone mentions a sensitivity to perfume. **Both scents, but especially Eau de Parfum, have the ability to leave pink marks on white clothing if sprayed directly. I've only seen this on machine-washable clothes, and it's never stained anything that I've noticed. Specific compliments both perfumes have received: Captivating, entrancing, incredible, enthralling, delicious, and perfect.
I love this one. Always a favorite

Whst is the difference between Black Opium Eau de Parfum and the Black Opium Le Parfum?
- Asked by Tickleme
- Official Answer By Yves Saint Laurent - BEHello! Our Black Opium EDP has opening notes of adrenaline-rich coffee and the sweet sensuality of vanilla that recline into the softness of white flowers creating a long-lasting perfume. Black Opium Le Parfum is a long-lasting perfume for women with the most intense and warm interpretation of the original Eau de Parfum.

A warm vanilla perfume complemented by iconic coffee notes and a sensual bouquet of white flowers, creating a unique and desirable bold floral fragrance for women for those searching for never-ending nights. We hope you will give both a try!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
what is the different between the black opium eau de parfum and the glitter one?
- Asked by jessica
- Official Answer By Yves Saint Laurent - BEHello! While our Black Opium Eau de Parfum and the Glitter edition share a gourmand family, they offer distinct experiences. The original features a warm, spicy blend of coffee, white flowers, and vanilla. The Glitter edition adds a creamy marshmallow musk and luminous orange flower to this base, resulting in a sweeter, more sensual scent. The "glitter" is purely decorative and refers only to the bottle, the fragrance itself is glitter-free. We hope this helps you find your perfect YSL Beauty fragrance!Was this answer helpful to you
