Black Opium - Eau de Parfum Extreme

Must Buy For Any Woman

I got this perfume for Christmas and it is delicious. Not a scent for everyday but ideal for a night out. The base notes of vanilla make this perfume smell dream-like and idyllic. I can not distinguish the scent of coffee. The bottle is beautiful.

Must-Have Fall/Winter Fragrance

This is arguably one of my favorite scents. It’s a lot darker than the traditional black opium and feels much less sweet. There’s an edginess to it that I like feels seductive on my skin. I get more cocoa and coffee notes in this (compared to the original) and it’s also spicier. Definitely a scent I enjoy keeping in my rotation.

Amazing smell

I love everything about this perfume. What I appreciate most about this perfume is its versatility. It's perfect for both day and night wear. During the day, it gives off a light and airy vibe, while at night, it becomes more sensual and seductive.

I took a risk and bought this without testing it in store or with a sample and I’m glad I did. The notes are all things I like so I figured I could not go too wrong with it, particularly on sale. Upon first spraying it I was disappointed because it smelled totally floral - which is fine but I was expecting the chocolate and coffee scents people rave about. I was doing something around the house and thought "why does it smell like brownies are baking" then I realized it was my perfume! An excellent scent! Then throughout the time wearing it the scent shifted between chocolate, coffee, and floral. A great experience. Also the packaging and outer box are pretty. I’d be interested in trying some of the other scents from this line.

I was excited to receive this as the notes sound like a scent I would love. I sadly am returning it as it doesn’t smell anything like that, smells too “mature” for my age.

YSL Black Opium Extreme

I really like YSL Black Opium EDP (i love anything with vanilla), but Black Opium Extreme is my absolute FAVORITE fragrance. The coffee and cacao are delicious, and as it dries down the vanilla becomes more clear. To me, Black Opium Extreme is not as "sweet" as Black Opium.

Zara’s Review

My brother bought me this as a present and I am so happy he did I got so many compliments and it’s smells amazing I love it

BEST!

Smells so so so good. Sexy, long lasting and what not. Whenever I apply this perfume, I receive tons of compliments everytime. Gonna buy second bottle. It’s pricy but worth it… in love with black opium

Smells like the regular black opium

This smells amazing, but it smells just like the regular black opium. So if you have the original black opium don’t buy it. They smell different, but on the skin they smell and last the exact same.

Beautiful perfume, the bottle is destructive

Beautiful perfume but oh my days who designed the finish on the bottle??? It's a very rough and abrasive finish, it's like carrying a heavy duty piece of sand paper,it has completely destroyed the lining of my mulberry bag by snagging it to bits! I now (too late) have to carry it in a plastic bag like you put them in at the airport! A simple laquer finish would avoid it being a destructive tool 😡

Disappointing

I was pretty disappointed with this fragrance. Was expecting complex, sexy, spicy gourmand notes but really just felt that scent fell flat. Kind of powdery scented and just smelled cheap. It didn’t last long, either. I was expecting vanilla and coffee, which are scents that I love, but really didn’t feel those notes came through. There are much better scents out there, especially at this price point. I definitely prefer the original opium.

I love Black Opium and Black Opium Green but this is something else. Rich decadent and you can actually smell the coffee note. I would say fall/winter but love so much I’ll wear it in spring too.
