FAQ
What does Black Opium smell like?
Black Opium opens with pink pepper and pear, transitions into a bold coffee and jasmine heart, and settles into a sweet vanilla-patchouli base. It's like a vanilla latte with a rebellious edge.
Is Black Opium good for young women?
Black Opium was designed with a younger demographic in mind, offering a more modern, energetic take on the oriental genre. It's one of the most popular fragrances among women in their 20s and 30s.
How strong is Black Opium?
Black Opium has good projection that makes it noticeable without being overwhelming. It lasts 6-8 hours on skin and performs best in cooler weather when its warm notes can bloom properly.
