Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Neon Eau de Parfum 30ml Spray

Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Neon Eau de Parfum is a 30ml oriental-vanilla fragrance for women — a fruity-gourmand flanker to the iconic Black Opium signature. Tropical pitahaya and citrus meet a creamy floral heart and a warm vanilla-musk base, composed by master perfumer Olivier Cresp.

About Black Opium Neon

Yves Saint Laurent is the legendary French luxury fashion house, and the Black Opium franchise has become one of the most successful modern feminine fragrance lines. Black Opium Neon, launched in 2019 by master perfumer Olivier Cresp, is the line's fruity-gourmand interpretation — designed to feel slightly more glowing, slightly more vibrant than the original.

Fragrance notes

• Top: pitahaya (dragon fruit), mandarin orange, citron
• Heart: orange blossom, coffee, jasmine sambac
• Base: vanilla, musk

How it wears

The fragrance opens with a juicy, slightly tropical accord — pitahaya gives an immediate exotic-fruit brightness, lifted by sparkling mandarin and citron. The heart turns into a warm, slightly indulgent floral-coffee accord, with creamy orange blossom and rich jasmine sambac layered against the signature Black Opium coffee note. As it dries down, smooth vanilla and clean musk wrap the composition into a comforting, slightly gourmand finish that lingers gracefully on skin.

Who it's for

Black Opium Neon is for women who love sweet, slightly indulgent gourmand perfumery — wearers who enjoy fruity-vanilla compositions, fans of the wider Black Opium line and those building a special-occasion or evening signature. It is also a strong gift choice thanks to its instantly recognisable flacon.

How and when to wear it

This is a versatile day-to-evening fragrance and is at its most flattering through autumn and winter when the warm vanilla-coffee base really comes through. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, the inside of the elbows and the base of the throat — and avoid rubbing the wrists together so the fruity opening can develop. The 30ml format is also a smart, handbag-friendly size.
