Desire is an intoxicating clash of dark mystery, electrifying energy, and sensual glamour—crafted for those who captivate effortlessly and live life with fierce passion. Inspired by the iconic, addictive aura of YSL Black Opium, this fragrance opens with a vibrant, sparkling shock of sweet juicy pear, pink pepper, and radiant orange blossom, evolves into a seductive, high-voltage heart of rich dark black coffee, bitter almond, and white jasmine, and settles into a warm, creamy base of Madagascar vanilla, sensual patchouli, and velvety cedarwood. Dark, sweet, and dangerously addictive.
