Wanted Girl Eau de Parfum vs Opium Noir Extrait
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A divisive sweet treat. Some find this a delicious, versatile gourmand with a creamy lactonic heart, others find it a generic floral with disappointing longevity. The main selling point, if you buy into it, is the dulce de leche.
Opium Noir goes all-in on the coffee-vanilla gourmand accord that made YSL Black Opium a modern classic, landing a genuinely sweet, bold wear that is recognisable fast, if flatter and less boozy-dark than the original's coffee-patchouli depth.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its sweet and gourmand nature makes it great for dates and casual wear, especially in cooler weather. Reviewers suggest its moderate sillage and often criticised longevity make it suitable for an office environment, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events or the freshness for sport.
Seasons
A sweet coffee-vanilla gourmand suited to cool weather and evening wear; too heavy for summer heat.
Occasions
Bold and sweet enough for nights out and dates; too much for a quiet office day or sport.
