Yves Saint Laurent Opium Neon Black Eau De Parfum Spray For Women 75 ml

Product Information

I can't really distinguish notes here, smells warm and sweet, with a little bit of coffee, vanilla, and ripe banana. Now, I can handle oranges and white florals mixing with vanilla (such as in Dior Poison Girl EDT which smells like an orange creamsicle to me), but darker toned sweetness makes me retch. New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging .

For that reason, I didn't end up getting it since I found them to be too similar and I much prefer Si Fiori. Lucky for me, I didn’t have to scrub it off, because it changes to a fairly boring approximation of vanilla after about 15 minutes.

On my skin the orange blossom really comes out and combined with the jasmine, it gives this a very clean scent. As it dries down that famous YSL coffee-vanilla accord intensifies on my skin, but complimenting the orange blossom. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. I loved the original BO, but got tired of it quick because i kept smelling it on everyone and in every single perfume out there. In 2020 YSL continues to re-invent its ever-epic perfume and debuts NEW Black Opium Eau de Parfum Neon.

After 30 minutes, it starts to dry down to a bit more of musky vanilla, less fruity but still sweet, maybe a hint of floral in the background. This is exactly what I experienced with 'Perfect' and 'Alien' and 'Libre' - the love at first sniff quickly turned into "This is too strong for me! Black Opium Neon by Yves Saint Laurent is a vibrant and electrifying fragrance that embodies the spirit of a modern rebel.This exhilarating adaptation of the best-selling Black Opium fragrance is characterised by a unique, exotic top note of Dragon Fruit. Blind bought this (due to lockdown), thinking it would be a fresher, citrussy take on the original Black Opium. There were moments that the whiffs I got felt remarkably similar to Pièce Unique by Maison Grès, which happens to be one of my favourite fragrances.

Update: Ok so I tested it for days and I realize it smells pretty much like VS Love Me, floral, bubblegummy and also abit like Poison Girl the EDT though, due to the lemon/citron and orange blossom. Love this better than all of the coffee-based fragrances in my arsenal- Coffee Break, BO, Hundred Silent Ways, Intense Cafe, etc. In an attempt to democratize fashion, YSL began producing ready-to-wear in 1966, with its launch of Rive Gauche, and is considered to be the first to popularize the concept.Orange blossom is also the most prominent note from beginning to end of the perfume lifecycle with dragon fruit supporting that soapy sweetness. I still smelled it as a skin scent during the night but then just sprayed more on me as I am going to bed now. It blends with the orange blossom and vanilla to make a combination that can only be explained with one word: intoxicating. As it dries down, the cologne-like orange blossom comes out and mixes with a creamy pink vanilla base.
