Real talk
This isn't the fragrance that announces itself when you enter. It's the one people notice when you're leaving, and turn around to ask what you're wearing.Potion
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
