Which Should You Buy?
Our Verdict - Opio Noir
A sweet, creamy confection that's rich and inviting. If you like your gourmands with a touch of sophistication, this one's a solid choice for colder evenings.

Our Verdict - Inspired by Black Opium
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Yves Saint Laurent's Black Opium (2014) - the Nathalie Lorson coffee-vanilla gourmand that became YSL's biggest commercial hit of the decade, here translated into a pink pepper opening over coffee and a vanilla-patchouli close. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening and date wear at a fraction of the designer price.

The rich, sweet, and coffee-heavy accords make it best suited for evenings and dates, where its presence can be appreciated. While too commanding for a typical office, it can work for casual outings or semi-formal events in cooler weather.
