Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium Make It Yours Fragrance Jacket Collection is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Nathalie Lorson, Marie Salamagne, Olivier Cresp, and Honorine Blanc. Black Opium Make It Yours Fragrance Jacket Collection 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. Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium Make It Yours Fragrance Jacket Collection carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This isn't a perfume, it's a marketing gimmick. Yves Saint Laurent's attempt at making Black Opium a 'collectible' with customisable jackets misses the point of fragrance entirely, adding nothing to the scent itself. Skip the superficial faff and stick to the original, if you must.

Its sweet and bold character, along with a strong sillage, makes it less ideal for a formal office setting. However, the sensual and warm accords are excellent for dates and evening events, adding a sophisticated edge to formal wear.

About

Imagine a rich, almost syrupy sweetness of orange blossom and juicy pear, spiced up with a hint of pink pepper. This blooms into a heart of heady jasmine, nutty almond, and a dominant, dark coffee note, all smoothed over with a touch of mysterious licorice. The base settles into a warm, inviting blend of creamy vanilla, earthy patchouli, and soft, enveloping cashmere wood with a dry cedar undertone. It's an oriental vanilla with serious sillage.
