Which Should You Buy?
A tragically discontinued masterpiece, Belle d'Opium is a uniquely seductive, smoky white floral that consistently garners compliments. It stands miles apart from its 'Opium' family, a true shame it was ever pulled from shelves.
Perfume Parlour's Ringing Poppy chases YSL Belle D'Opium's smoky white-floral oriental. The jasmine-gardenia opening and tobacco-incense heart read true, but it lands flatter and softer than the original's luminous, hours-long sillage.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
With strong projection and a rich, smoky profile, this scent is ill-suited for the office. It excels in date and formal settings due to its seductive, luxurious character, making it a perfect choice for evening wear and special occasions.
Seasons
The smoky tobacco, amber and incense lean warm and cocooning, suiting autumn and winter far more than warm-weather wear.
Occasions
Its sensual, dressed-up oriental character is built for dates and evenings out rather than the office or daytime casual.

Our estimate of how alike these two fragrances smell, calculated from their published notes. It is a position on our scale, not a measured percentage of shared smell.
