Description
Black Opium Over Red by Yves Saint Laurent is a daring Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance for women, introduced in 2024. Created by master perfumers Honorine Blanc, Nathalie Lorson, Marie Salamagne, and Olivier Cresp, this scent reimagines the iconic Black Opium signature with a vibrant, unconventional twist.
The fragrance opens with a luscious and tangy fusion of CHERRY and GREEN MANDARIN, delivering an instant rush of brightness and sweetness. At its heart, the luxurious floral depth of MOROCCAN OURIKA® JASMINE, ORANGE BLOSSOM ABSOLUTE, and the intriguing smokiness of BLACK TEA unfold. The base brings a rich, addictive warmth with MADAGASCAR VANILLA, COFFEE, and earthy INDONESIAN PATCHOULI LEAF—creating a sensual, unforgettable trail.
Marketed as “The OVER RED rush,” it is a celebration of experimental pleasure and bold contrasts, merging fruit, florals, and gourmand notes into an artistic and euphoric olfactory experience.
