What do reviewers say about Blossom Oud and Black Opium?
Here's the thing about Blossom Oud: the florals don't soften the oud. They almost get absorbed by it. The jasmine becomes dusty, the rose turns woody.Blossom Oud
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
