    I love black opium, I think the reason why people say it doesn’t last long is because they become sort of nose blind to it when they are constantly smelling it. For example, I wore it once and thought it faded quickly; however, I tried wearing it to bed and woke up still smelling it.

    I'm team black opium intense. The coffee is prominent and there's a witchy note of absinthe. Not to mention the stunning midnight blue glitter bottle 😍

    Ah I didn't realise the extreme version has the glittery textured lid too, thats quite cool. Great review & comparison :)

    I am so happy that you're the first person I saw who reviewed this perfume! I've been eyeing it since I saw it on the Ulta app! Nuit blanche is my absolute favorite flanker I love that it's sweeter than the original black opium. I am so sad it's discontinued and it's the only perfume I bought a backup of.

    I like the bottle on new one, I had too many perfumes on to spray it but from lid smelled nice. Sounds like this extreme is more of a true gourmand vs the original being a fruity floral. I’m keeping my original for now, hoping to finish it up come fall.

    I just recently fell in love
    with my black opium extreme I got last year, it’s deeper now, and is giving me the fall vibes I’ve been craving. I bought a backup because this summer has been miserable with this heatwave, I’m so ready for fall and this black opium extreme IS fall in a bottle ♥️🥰🍁🍂

    Try Al Haramain Rawaa. Compared to Good Girl and Black Opium. I have a bottle and it smells, too me, like deep dark berries despite the almond coffee top note. Nice bottle and juice for price.

    Hi Ilythia! Would you like to make a review of a perfume from Matière Premiere? I went to the shop yesterday and I was OBSESSED with how great that niche brand is. My favourite was Radical Rose! Would love to hear your opinion on it!

    I am definitely going to get this perfume. My husband loves the OG on me before it became popular and hated.

      I sold my bottle of Black Opium because there was a bitter note in it that didn’t sit well on my skin and the longevity on me was horrid… but now I kind of miss it 😞 I might I have to try the extreme!

  • @julieboley7190

    I've only sampled the original. Which of the flankers would you say has the least prominent licorice note? Thanks for the review!

  • @PS-fk5zv
    @PS-fk5zv 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Might check it out, I really didn’t notice coffee in the original so I’m hoping it’s more prominent in this new flanker.

    I love Vanilla. To bring out the vanilla in the OG Black Opium I use the solid single-note fragrance

    • @jenniferhall7961
      @jenniferhall7961 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The solid single- note fragrance, Lush Vanillary. Then I spray the Black Opium about an inch away from the Vanillary. It brings out the vanilla in the OG and the lasting power is about 6 hrs on me with the Vanillary.

      I have a Bottle of Opium that is close to 35 Years old.
      I had stopped wearing Fragrances for about 20 Years and recently got back into it and remembered that I had that Bottle of Opium - I was scared that it may have gone off but I pulled it out and sprayed it on, and it was still amazing!
      When I finish this Bottle and buy another one, I am going to keep the Original Bottle for Display in my China Cabinet🤗

  • @louiseleite3866
    @louiseleite3866 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I owned a bottle about 5 years ago. It became too popular, all the young girls in the office wear it and I still smell it a lot on public transport so I got sick of it 😂 and the flankers don't excite me but I remember trying it for the time and loving it..

    I don’t own the original but I would like to try because everyone calls it trashy or cheap. I know that’s weird but I🤷🏽‍♀️. I would love to try the flanker you mentioned that is hard to find.

  • @Kitten9011
    @Kitten9011 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like the way you describe the original BO. I also feel like it gets a bad rep lately and I don’t agree with it. I have my 3th bottle, I don’t use it everyday but I find it very uplifting especially in the fall and winter. On me it lasts all day but I can’t say if it projects for too long. For sure it projects quite a bit because that’s how I bought it. My work colleague wore it one day at work and I could get this whiff of a very fresh yet warm scent anytime she’d walk by my desk. I went to the store and bought it that same day. It’s been in my collection since. Thank you for the review, I’m excited to try the new one. P.S. To me CH good girl smells like a girl who’s been out drinking 😁

  • @Danit.Talkscentswithme
    @Danit.Talkscentswithme 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I’ve smelled the original and one of the flankers and it was .. Meh, the only reason I feel this way is that it disappears on me so fast, I can’t smell any of those notes.. if I pay $100 or more it has to project and leave a trail, even if I like the smell, if it doesn’t perform, I won’t buy it .

    I was curious to smell it , I went to my local Ulta a week ago store and they didn’t have a tester or a sample
    But with your review i think I will pass on this one I already have a travel size bottle of the OG and it’s more than enough for me

    Coffee chocolate smells sweet to me so this doesn’t help. I love the perfume and I don’t get why they make so many variations of one perfume especially a classic one like this. Chanel 5 has one original scent. Let’s keep it simple life is crazy enough
