An electrifying fragrance with notes of intense coffee, vibrant blue absinthe, and creamy vanilla—dark, powerful, and irresistibly feminine.
YSL Black Opium Eau de Parfum Intense is a deeper, more provocative take on the original Black Opium. It captures the thrill of the night, infusing mystery, bold energy, and femininity into every drop. Designed for the woman who is unapologetically magnetic and daring.
The fragrance opens with the bold note of blue absinthe mixed with crisp boysenberry, leading into a sensual floral heart of jasmine sambac and orange blossom. Its signature coffee note adds an edgy, addictive energy, grounded by sweet vanilla, sandalwood, and licorice for an intensely seductive finish.
With its shimmering deep-blue bottle and sparkling accents, Black Opium Intense is not just a perfume—it's a statement piece and a nighttime essential.
