Fans of the original Opium will be disappointed with this latest addition. It has no DNA of the previous one. So keep in mind that it is by no means a flanker but a whole new scent.
I came across this one in my search for the perfect coffee scent as black opium was rumoured to be a strong coffee perfume. I have finished more than half the bottle but I still couldn't detect a coffee note. What I do get is a warm vanilla enveloped in a hint of patchouli and a light jasmine.
But coffee lovers do not despair. When my friend wore it, it smelled heavenly. Like a fluffy frothy cappuccino. so depends on body chemistry.
This is definitely a fall/winter scent. Im just disappointed that the coffee note didn't show up on my skin. Its a beautiful warm fragrance and reminds me of a few others like `la vista `belle and Bath and bodyworks cashmere glow.
I do like the bottle. Its very edgy with a thick glass moulding.
All you lovers of gourmands, sweet, warm fragrances this bottle holds a treat for you.
So lets dream of cozy fall nights and crackling fireplaces.

Base Notes: Vanilla, patchouli, cedar, cashmere wood
MOOD: Date night. casual cafes winter, fall.
