    Real talk

    The tonka bean and warm spice give this an edge that pure floral prettiness doesn't have. It's sweet enough to flirt, dry enough to mean it. Intimate sillage means it stays close.Play For Her Intense
    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
