How is Black Opium Glitter different from the original Black Opium?

It keeps the coffee, vanilla and orange blossom core but opens with green mandarin, pear and lemon and adds a marshmallow note. The overall effect is sweeter and slightly more gourmand.

How long does it last?

As an eau de parfum, it is built to last several hours on skin. Many owners report it lasting through an evening, with the vanilla and coffee base lingering longest.

Is it too sweet for everyday wear?

It leans sweet because of the vanilla and marshmallow. If you prefer dry, woody or fresh scents, sample it first; if you like gourmands, it works for daily wear in cool weather.

What notes will I notice first?

The first spray is citrus: green mandarin, pear and lemon. The orange blossom then comes through before the coffee, vanilla, marshmallow, musk and patchouli base settles in.

Is this a limited edition?

Yes, Black Opium Glitter is a limited edition release, so it is not guaranteed to stay in production alongside the standard Black Opium.

Our take on the Black Opium Glitter by Yves Saint Laurent, 3 oz EDP Spray

Black Opium Glitter is a limited edition of Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium, an eau de parfum built on coffee and vanilla. This version opens with green mandarin, pear and lemon, keeps the orange blossom heart, and adds a marshmallow note to the base of vanilla absolute, coffee, musk and patchouli. The result is a sweeter, more gourmand take on the original, aimed at people who already like the Black Opium family or want a coffee-vanilla scent with a soft candy edge. Against the standard Black Opium, expect a lighter citrus start and more sweetness; against the rest of the designer gourmand field, it is richer and more coffee-forward than most.
