About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Black Opium Le Parfum (2022) is the vanilla-intensive flanker in YSL's Black Opium line, built on a base of Madagascar vanilla, bourbon vanilla, vanilla absolute, coffee, vanilla orchid, and patchouli. The top opens with pear, cinnamon, and green mandarin, while the heart features jasmine sambac, solar notes, and orange blossom. This is a warm, spicy, and sweet composition where vanilla dominates (100% accord), supported by coffee and white florals. Collectors who enjoy gourmand fragrances with a powdery finish will appreciate its depth. It suits evening wear or cool weather, and those who find the original too light may prefer this richer version. The coffee adds a bitter edge to the sweetness, preventing it from becoming cloying. Overall, it's a modern classic for vanilla lovers.
