Belle d'Opium is a floral fragrance from the French house Yves Saint Laurent, composed by Alberto Morillas and Honorine Blanc and released in 2010. Flowers lead, with strong sweet side and woody, amber, spicy and citrus touches.
Mandarin opens with a bright citrus, and jasmine, gardenia and Casablanca lily add a creamy, heady white-floral richness. The heart is warmer and darker: peach and fruity notes give sweetness, while white pepper, tobacco and incense add spice and smoke. In the base, patchouli, vanilla, sandalwood and amber create a warm, smooth and sweet finish.
About half of wearers find its longevity moderate, and most report moderate sillage. It is voted for autumn and winter and clearly for evenings. It suits nights out and cooler weather, and someone who likes white florals with an incense-and-tobacco darkness rather than a fresh or green bouquet.
