Black Opium Nuit Blanche is a gourmand fragrance from the French house Yves Saint Laurent, composed by Olivier Cresp and released in 2016. Sweetness leads, with a strong spicy side and floral, woody and musky touches.

Bourbon pepper and anise open with a warm, spicy and slightly liquorice-like note, and rice adds a soft, powdery, starchy quality. The heart brings coffee, orange blossom and peony, roasted and floral, with coriander adding a light spice. In the base, milk, caramel and vanilla create a creamy, sweet softness, with sandalwood and white musk giving a smooth finish.

About half of wearers find its longevity moderate, and sillage is moderate or intimate. It is voted for winter and autumn and leans towards evenings. It suits cosy evenings and cold weather, and someone who likes a softer, milkier, more powdery coffee-vanilla scent.
