YSL Black Opium Floral Shock Perfume

YSL Black Opium Floral Shock £71* 
 
Debenhams got in touch recently and asked if I wanted to try out the new Black Opium Floral Shock Eau de Parfum, of course I jumped at the chance. I've always wanted to try the Black Opium fragrances as they're a classic and timeless scent, I love the floral take on the well-known perfume and knew it would instantly be one I would love. 
 
The perfume is described as "burning exhilaration" and Debenhams asked me to describe a time where I have felt most exhilarated. Next week, I will hand my 10,000 word dissertation in to University. 3 years of work all concluding in the handing in of a mammoth assignment. It's exciting, I haven't particularly enjoyed my degree a great deal so it's nice that it's coming to an end in a piece of work I have enjoyed writing and am proud of. 
 
Anyway, on to the scent! It's described as a mix of the classic electrifying Black Opium but with a floral freshness comprising of bold citrus notes and white musk. If you find the original Black Opium too strong and powerful then this is a slightly lighter and fresher alternative. I adore the packaging, who doesn't love a bit of glitter? The purple ombre glitter shows that it is the less dramatic option in comparison to the strong black glitter packaging of the classic Black Opium.
