Real talk
There's a synthetic streak running through this, ambroxan doing that clear, almost salty wood thing. Some people hear 'synthetic' and run. Others hear it and lean in. This is for the second group.Karl Lagerfeld Rouge
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
