More from Yves Saint Laurent
Some perfumes shout. This one whispers, then lingers. Yves Saint Laurent’s Black Opium Illicit Green takes everything bold about the original Black Opium and twists it with something unexpected: a cool splash of green.
So what does it smell like? Think of your first sip of iced coffee on a warm morning — sharp, sweet, and alive. There’s a kick of black coffee at the heart, smoothed out with creamy vanilla, but here it’s lifted with juicy green mandarin and a soft herbal freshness. Patchouli’s in there too, but forget the dusty hippy clichés — here it’s clean, earthy, and modern.
It comes as an eau de parfum spray, which means one or two spritzes go a long way. The atomiser gives a fine, even mist — no sticky drips, no heavy blast. Perfect for before work, date nights, or when you want to turn a grey Tuesday into something a bit more daring.
If you like your scent to feel confident but not shouty, with a freshness that cuts through the sweetness, this is the one.
