Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Review

This is my all time favourite fragrance. The smell is amazing and the scent lasts all day long. The only down side is how pricey it is, which is why I only use this fragrance on special occasions. Plus the packaging is super nice. What girl doesn't love black or glitter?

The first time I smelled this scent I fell for it instantly.The packaging is super stunning it makes me feel luxurious and a little like a superstar when I look at the packaging I fall in love all over again, I love the glitter and the colour of the bottle and box too. Its sexy and feminine and isn't too strong where it gives me a headache, but it also lasts all day which is ideal for me as I hate having to reapply. Anytime I wear this scent I get a lot of compliments and I absolutley recommend it to anyone that loves beautiful floral top notes mixed with that sweet vanilla and the base of coffee, which gives it a highly unique scent. I will forever repurchase this scent (even though it is pricey, but your paying for a fabulous product)as it is my first grown up scent.

I love this perfume. The fragrance is so beautiful and long lasting. It's perfect for any occasion whether going out with the girls or having a chilled out day with the family, it's just the perfect scent for every occasion. I highly recommend it.

.. this has become one of my favourite perfumes of all time. I tend to purchase unisex scents like spicebomb or opium black but this smell absolutely blew me away I just needed it. It's definitely the black coffee that makes it so unique and Although it is very strong It's not overwhelming in any way. Another bonus is it last on my skin all day, yippee!!

I simply adore this heavenly scent and it has become one of my signature scents over the last two years. It's great in summer and winter but use sparingly in summer as it's quite strong and sometimes it can be a little too floral if it's too humid. I love that it lingers and I can pick up the scent on my bag strap or seatbelt or my sons pj's. It's a timeless and beautiful fragrance and I cannot recommend it enough.

I'm very picky about fragrances I have just a few brands I really love. YSL fragrance cost quite a few thousand pretty pennies but when you sniff them or try them on you'll know why. Now I'm not a big fan of the original YSL Opium, I tried it on and it really smelt strong and dated. But Black Opium... is completely different. It combines floral notes and coffee, coffee I've never come across a fragrance with coffee notes before. But it smells gorgeous, sophisticated, glamorous, expensive! And the lasting power... oh you are getting your money's worth in terms of that! One spritz and you smell delicious and sophisticated for 6 hours. This is a stronger perfume but it's not a heavy suffocating scent. I would say it's more of an evening perfume...unless you work in an environment where you're wearing a full tailored suit...at least that's the picture I get. The bottle is pretty black and sparkly with the pink fragrance in the center and the lid stays on nicely. If you like the scent of coffee and white florals you may really like this.

This perfume, as much as I don't want to tell the world, is absolutely delicious. You never give away your signature scent and this is that scent for me. I always get complimented when wearing this perfume. I'l never get tired of this perfume. Once you spray with this perfume it will last forever until you wash whatever it is you sprayed. Definitely worth the money.
