Black Opium d'YSL est reconnu par la communauté r/fragrance comme un choix de parfum déclaration populaire, particulièrement mentionné comme exemple d'un scent soirée audacieux. Bien qu'il ait des fans dédiés qui apprécient sa projection forte et son caractère distinctif, la communauté reconnaît qu'il est polarisant et ne convient pas à un port quotidien ou polyvalent, certains le trouvant trop sucré ou artificiel selon la chimie de la peau.
