Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Le Parfum Perfume 30ml

Black Opium, at its most luxurious. A radical quartet of sumptuous vanilla notes, ultra-dark coffee, and luminous white flowers. Smooth, sensual, and uncompromising.

Le Parfum takes Black Opium's original floral gourmand scent and shines a spotlight on vanilla, its most precious facet. The iconic coffee accord has been twisted with an exceptional blend of four vanilla notes, each different yet complimentary. Ranging from the most delectable aromas to sensual woody notes, the diverse quartet of vanilla ingredients combines to create an unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity. Bound to an exhilarating dark-coffee accord, and bright white florals, this new take on the classic Black Opium signature exudes a wildly powerful sensuality, equal parts bold and exquisite. An ultra-intense scent for those seeking the ultimate day-to-night olfaction.

• Top notes: pear accord, green mandarin
• Heart notes: orange flower petals, jasmine sambac, cinnamon essence
• Base notes: vanilla quarter, coffee accord, patchouli heart, ambrox

Unlike any other Black Opium bottle, this over-black jewel shines from cap to toe with a reflective gloss: like an expertly cut gem, chiselled from a precious dark stone. At its centre is a dazzling heart of glitter, emblematic of the vivid fragrance found within.

How to use:

• For light intensity: spray in a cloud around your head and shoulders, let the fragrance fall gently around you
• For medium intensity: spray in a y-shape across your body, beginning at one shoulder and finishing at the other. If you are wearing jewellery it is a great alternative to spraying your neck
• For added intensity: apply perfume directly to your pulse points and/or hot spots (wrist, inner elbow and lower neck). Here the heat of your body will allow the fragrance to reveal its full trail. Include shoulders and back to intensify your perfume trail

Other application tips:

• Hair & hair accessories: they can be fragranced for a gentle fragrance trail. For just a halo of scent, spray your hair brush only
• Garments: perfume the inside of your jacket and coats for a medium trail. For added intensity of fragrance go further and perfume your blouse/jumper
• Scarves: for lighter fragrance, spray a scarf and wrap the scarf around your neck to transfer fragrance onto yourself gently
• Bathing: spritz perfume on warm bath water for an indulgent experience
