If you’re a fan of the iconic Yves Saint Laurent scent, Opium, then we have some good news for you – YSL Beauté has recently presented the Black Opium eau de toilette. It’s a mysterious, sensual and vibrant take on the original, with a new femininity at its heart.

The fragrance has key notes of blackcurrant, pear and mandarin as well as jasmine tea, orange blossom. But this scent finishes with a unique secret; strong, seductive coffee beans. Their flavour-rich strength is combined with creamy white musk and underpinned with a white wood accord.

This contrast perfectly encapsulates the eternal tension between dark and light, and provides a wake-up call for your mind, body and senses.

The design of the bottle pays homage to the iconic original Opium perfume – with a functional square design softened by a circle at its heart. To represent a strong, sexy and modern female, the bottle is finished with an urban, subversive and tactile black diamond-dust finish, making it a modern classic.

Here at StyleNest, we think Black Opium eau de toilette is a perfectly soft yet daring scent, ideal for late summer nights. From the first scent you won’t be able to resist picking it up – but will you be able to put it down?

Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium is available nationwide from 19th August at www.yslbeauty.co.uk
