What do reviewers say about Vanilla Orchid and Black Opium?
Some fragrances make you earn the warmth. Vanilla Orchid arrives already there, already comfortable. It's the vanilla that says: I chose this, I meant it, I'm not going anywhere. Three notes.Vanilla Orchid
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
