Black Opium Intense by Yves Saint Laurent is a hypnotic take on the iconic Black Opium, deeper, darker, and more mysterious than ever. Launched in 2019, this oriental vanilla fragrance explores the thrilling edge of femininity with bold contrasts and seductive depth. It opens with an intriguing burst of absinthe and juicy boysenberry—sharp, enigmatic, and utterly intoxicating.
At the heart, the signature black coffee note is intensified, wrapped in white floral notes of jasmine sambac and orange blossom that add a velvety sensuality. As it dries down, creamy vanilla, rich licorice, and smooth sandalwood create a magnetic base that lingers long into the night. Black Opium Intense is the perfect scent for the woman who embraces mystery, thrives on contrast, and leaves a lasting impression wherever she goes.
