Perfumes Zag Zodiak 339 Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium is an Eau de Parfum. 339 Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium opens with Orange Blossom, Pink Pepper, and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Coffee, Licorice, and Almond, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Cedar, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Perfumes Zag Zodiak's 339 Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

339 delivers YSL Black Opium's signature coffee-vanilla gourmand well at the top, though it settles into a much softer base than the bold designer original.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

339 opens with pear and pink pepper, deepens into a coffee-jasmine-bitter almond heart, and finishes on vanilla, patchouli and cashmere wood, tracking Black Opium's addictive gourmand-oriental signature. A recognisable but shorter-lived budget clone. The coffee-vanilla accord is the hook and it lands well on a night out in colder months, though it lacks the original's addictive, long-lingering trail.
