Experience YSL Black Opium, the rock couture fragrance for women by Yves Saint Laurent. Addictive, unparalleled in provocation, deliberatively seductive. Faced by YSL Beauty global make-up and fragrance ambassador Zoë Kravitz.

Inspiration:

In 1977 Yves Saint Laurent introduces Opium: a boundary-pushing perfume. A revolution in a bottle. A new idea of femininity: sultry, provocative, addictive. In 2014, the Opium’s legacy and audacity continue to dazzle: Yves Saint Laurent Beauty unveils Black Opium, re-inventing addiction in a new, contemporary light, reshaped for the modern woman. To embody the Black Opium woman is YSL Beauty muse Zoë Kravitz.

Scent:

The original Black Opium Eau de Parfum. A captivating floral gourmand scent, twisted with an overdose of black coffee, for a shot of adrenaline. Energy, sensuality, coupled with that unique YSL edge. The signature black coffee accord is paired with sensual vanilla, enriched by the softness of white flowers and orange blossom, against a base of patchouli and comforting white musk. A daring contrast of light and dark, for a women’s fragrance that bewitches with its trail.

Crafted by Marie Salamagne, Nathalie Lorson, Olivier Cresp and Honorine Blanc.
