About this fragrance
Black Opium Over Red Perfume by Yves Saint Laurent Eau De Parfum Spray
Black Opium Over Red Eau De Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent is a bold and contemporary women's fragrance that introduces an irresistible cherry twist to the iconic Black Opium collection. Rich, sensual and full of character, it is created for women who enjoy modern gourmand fragrances with depth and sophistication. Ideal for evenings, cooler weather and special occasions, the fragrance opens with an enticing blend of juicy cherry and sparkling green mandarin, creating a vibrant contrast between sweet fruit and crisp citrus freshness.
The heart unfolds into an elegant floral accord where jasmine and orange blossom bring brightness and femininity, while black tea introduces a subtle aromatic depth that distinguishes this fragrance from the original Black Opium. As it settles, the signature combination of Madagascar vanilla and rich coffee returns with impressive warmth, joined by Indonesian patchouli leaf to create a smooth, long lasting finish that feels luxurious without becoming overpowering. The result is a fragrance that balances fruity sweetness with dark gourmand richness.
As an Eau De Parfum, Black Opium Over Red offers a higher fragrance concentration than an Eau De Toilette, delivering excellent longevity and a beautifully evolving scent throughout the day and into the evening. The addition of cherry creates a fresher, fruitier interpretation while retaining the addictive coffee and vanilla signature that has made the Black Opium range so recognisable. Perfect for women seeking a modern fragrance with confidence, warmth and elegance, Black Opium Over Red delivers a sophisticated balance of fruit, florals and gourmand notes that makes every wear feel distinctive.
