Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Opium EDP
A powerhouse modern gourmand - Black Opium is an unapologetically bold, sweet, and sultry signature. The coffee-vanilla core is addictive, making it a go-to for nights out or whenever you want to command attention.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Wanted Girl EDP
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.

Season and Occasion Fit

Black Opium

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The deep sweetness, warm spicy notes, and rich coffee-vanilla core make this ideal for colder weather, especially fall and winter. Its heaviness can feel cloying in heat but works nicely in spring evenings.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

The bold, sweet, and sensual profile is best for dates and nights out, while formal settings suit its opulence. It's too attention-grabbing for the office and not appropriate for sporty or active scenarios.

Wanted Girl

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

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.
