Real talk
Destin doesn't aim for mystery. The strawberry-peony opening is bright and direct. Underneath, the patchouli and musk keep things grounded. The fragrance offers a sweet-fruity character that stays.Destin
If you want a safe scent, look elsewhere. Black Opium announces itself with bold Orange Blossom, cools into Coffee and Jasmine intimacy, and stays close with Vanilla and Patchouli.Black Opium
