About This Perfume
Black Opium Wild Edition by Yves Saint Laurent is a Oriental Vanilla fragrance for women. Black Opium Wild Edition was launched in 2016. Black Opium Wild Edition was created by Nathalie Lorson, Marie Salamagne, Olivier Cresp and Honorine Blanc. Top notes are Pear, Pink Pepper and Orange Blossom; middle notes are Coffee, Jasmine, Bitter Almond and Licorice; base notes are Vanilla, Patchouli, Cashmere Wood and Cedar. Yves Saint Laurent announces a new bottle of the Black Opium Eau de Parfum edition, a limited edition for those who like animalistic prints. The Black Opium Wild Edition bottle apparently reflects the free spirit of both the perfume and its wearer. Wild Edition retains the original composition of the perfume dominated by bitter notes of coffee in contrast with white flowers and sweet vanilla and woods. The scent includes accords of pink pepper, pear, orange blossom, jasmine, bitter almond, licorice, vanilla, patchouli, cedar, cashmere and coffee. It is available as a 50 ml Eau de Parfum at the price of 89 Euros.

The verdict
Best for
Yves Saint Laurent has been releasing fragrances since 1964; Scendira lists 313 of them, with 77 in stock live. The catalogue divides cleanly into the vintage-heritage arm (Opium 1977, Rive Gauche 1971) and the modern gender-fluid line, Libre, Y, MYSLF, Myself, Libre Le Parfum. Prices in stock run $9 to $390. Community's top five right now are the divisive-and-loved Opium Pour Homme EDP (star anise vanilla cedar, 1995), Opium Parfum (1977 amber incense spice), 6 place Saint Sulpice (smoky leather resin, 2017), Y EDP (fresh apple sage aromatic, 2018) and Rive Gauche pour Homme (fougère star-anise, 2003). Family lean is gourmand-forward on the feminine side, fresh-aromatic on the masculine side.
