    What do reviewers say about Crystal Noir and Black Opium Eau de Toilette (2018)?

    Crystal Noir is not subtle and it knows it. The pepper and ginger opening is unapologetically assertive, but the coconut gardenia heart is where it wins people over.Crystal Noir
    This is the coffee fragrance people either love or haven't found yet. The sweetness is real, but so is the jolt underneath. It's Black Opium for someone who wants the addiction, not the weight of it.Black Opium Eau de Toilette (2018)
