Check Out Emily Blunt's Addictive New Opium Commercial

Actress's first sultry TV spot debuts to kick off her YSL fragrance campaign

Earlier this year, we caught a glimpse of Emily Blunt's promotional campaign as the newest spokesmodel for YSL's Opium perfume.

But that humble, classic shot did nothing to prepare us for the animal—both metaphorical and literal—that was released in her new TV spot.

You want drama? You got it…

The heavily and dramatically scored ad shows Blunt striding purposefully down a darkened hallway, and it's not long before we find out why—and Emily comes face to face with a leopard.

Does she keep her poise? Do you even need to ask?

Equal parts mystery, sultriness and, of course, opulence (this is a fragrance ad we're talking about, after all), it looks to us like YSL made perfectly good on its promise to feature Blunt as a "fiery, reckless, seductive woman."

Smells like success to us.
