Floral Fruity Gourmand
Perfumer: Nathalie Lorson
Illicit Green is the newest released Black Opium from YSL. There is a new note to the group – fig together with fig leaf. Hence the name “forbidden” green.
The opening and the heart are bright floral-fruity, the scent gets its depth later from bourbon vanilla and coffee. It is similar to the original Black Opium from this line and that is why I think you probably do not need both. But if you run out of the regular Black Opium, why not give the Illicit Green flanker a try. It is slightly creamier, with a twist, not bad at all.
But anyway, it is hard to keep up with all the new releases of Black Opium. They are like fireballs. Keep your finances under control guys.
Black Opium with fig. Creamy, sweet, sensual … great but totally unnecessary?
