What do reviewers say about Gigil and Black Opium?
Three perfumers, four top notes, and somehow nothing fights. The coffee isn't a coffee-lover's coffee, it's the one that lives inside the mochaccino, softened by milk chocolate until it's barely.Gigil
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
