    Real talk

    Breakfast in a bottle sounds like a gimmick until you smell it. The coffee is warm, the maple is real, and the bacon isn't novelty, it grounds everything. Sweet enough to intrigue.Making Love
    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
