Black Opium Eau de Parfum

I took a chance on this product and I have to say that I love it! Now I have to throw this mj Daisy dream is my second favorite perfume of all time now these two are very different.. Daisy dream is more floral and Black opium is very murky, night time/fall time scent but I honestly would wear it year round because I love it that much!!!!!!!

Basic and uninteresting, just like the person I imagine wearing it. Overly sweet and cloying, nothing special.

This smells so sexy, but in an understated way. It's sweet but not in a teeny bopper way. I could still see teenage girls appreciating it, as well as someone my mother's age and even older. Beautiful scent that would appeal to anyone who wants to smell good!

This has nothing to do with classic Opium and it lacks of imagination and true high quality ingredients

Black Opium is a strong spicy sexy scent. I usually hate spicy scents and tend to go more clean or fruity. I can definitely smell the coffee and caramel notes but there is a strong spice smell that reminds me of anise and it comes through more than the other notes. A friend of mine smelled this and to her it smelled very gourmand and she said it reminded her of a fancy chocolate shop. A little of …Read more

I've noticed that I always love these sweet & spicy perfumes the most. YSL seems to have a bunch of them. This one is lovely. It does dry down well and lasts quite a while on me. I've received many compliments while wearing it.

I finished off my bottle of Theirry Muglers scent A'men last week and tonight is the first time for me wearing Black Opium. The two scents are very very similar. They both have that strong coffee note and same sweet gourmand candy floss accord. The only slight differences between the two are the obvious floral jasmine notes in Black Opium and the tar note in A'men but Black Opium is …Read more

First time buying Black opium. I really wanted to like this perfum. It actually smells delicious. So here’s my dilemma. I normally spray/test before purchasing. So I did just that and browse around the store for a minute, no reaction. Good. So I purchased a travel size and the orio1 Oz. Day 2 there goes the allergic reaction. I had bumps everywhere. Funny thing on day 2, I didn’t even spray it …Read more

I got it as a gift- I would never buy it myself.
My current HG signature scent is Miss Dior EDP (most recent, 2017 version), so I do like sweet scents- but not THAT sweet. This one is like a box of candy in a bubble bath. It’s one-dimensional- the sweetness is overpowering and doesn’t go away. Weirdly I can’t really detect coffee, mostly vanilla.
The lasting power is not impressive …Read more

Hi!
When I first put it on me the sweet notes made me think:"Whoa!It smells exactly like 'La vie est belle'".After a few seconds the other notes kicked in and turned into something else.Sweet,but not in tour face.
I was respectiv something woody,something dark,something else.
Shame what such a high-end perfume has no staying power.After 3 hours is gone. Maybe …Read more
