Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium’s signature coffee note meets luminous dragon fruit in Black Opium Neon; addictive, unparalleled in provocation, deliberatively seductive. I can understand the appeal with the Black Opium line being “sexy” but IMO I would not want to be cuddled up with anyone wearing it unless it was a dab/tiny spray on the back of their neck left to warm up throughout the day. Black Opium Neon by Yves Saint Laurent is a vibrant and electrifying fragrance that embodies the spirit of a modern rebel. YSL's designs often featured designs influenced from traditional Chinese clothing, as well as themes from Pop Art, Ballets Russes, and Picasso. YSL Black Opium Neon EDP is a intensely fruity, full and voluminous Oriental fragrance with a unique key note of Dragon Fruit added to that signature Black Opium coffee accord.

For more intensity: apply perfume directly to your pulse points and / or hot spots (wrist, inner elbow and lower neck). This is just a berry/sweeter version of the opium and to be honest, still misses the mark with this one, as I find it now far too sweet but also heavy and still headache inducing.A bold interpretation of the Black Opium’s coffee note, enhanced by the thrilling aura of blue absinth for intensity. I was gifted my bottle of Neon from a friend who received it as a birthday present but didn’t like it. No coffee or fruit or anything worth smelling, it's just that Black Opium-y floral minus literally everything else.

Projection is mild unless you overspray and it lasts as a mild skin scent reminiscent of the OG Black Opium for about two hours before disappearing completely. As it dries down, hint of vanilla and orange blossom come out together with sweetish white floral notes. That sweetness carries through to the floral heart notes and it begins to smell similar to CH's Good Girl. I like it more than the previous flanker intense but i don't know if i like it more than the original. My lotion smelled great, I smelled great when I put the lotion on, but a couple hours in the fragrance disappears on my skin.the dragonfruit and the mandarin are layered beautifully over the orange blossom and the gourmand vanilla. Love this better than all of the coffee-based fragrances in my arsenal- Coffee Break, BO, Hundred Silent Ways, Intense Cafe, etc. After 30 minutes, it starts to dry down to a bit more of musky vanilla, less fruity but still sweet, maybe a hint of floral in the background. I love original BO and didn't think I would like Neon until I tried it on my skin today and wow this is gorgeous!

It's a black opium with higher highs and lower deep notes - and all that without ever feeling synthetic.

I’ve reapplied many times while tearing it today, although admittedly a few times just because I wanted to smell the opening again and wanted another dose of that pretty orange blossom.Perfumes with natural ingredients often smell different in batches based on the source of the ingredients, while synthetic ingredients usually have consistency in their smell and lasts longer.

It's a perfect summer night perfume for rock souls; not for me though - I don't hate it but I can not see myself wearing it. Some would probably judge this as being basic, and TBH they wouldn't be entirely wrong -- for better or for worse, it has a palpable "Sephora" energy.
