Real talk
Built for the hour when the night turns cold and sweet. Oriental vanilla gets a jolt of blood orange and a whisper of aniseed myrtle, making this the dessert that bites back.Black Cat
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
