Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Opium Intense EDP
Black Opium Intense amps up the original's signature coffee-vanilla with an absinth twist, creating a rich, decadent, and unforgettable night-out statement. Not for the shy, this is a modern femme fatale in a bottle.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Yummy Pistachio Oud EDP
If you're after a gourmand hit that's a bit more 'grown-up' and less sticky sweet, this could be your surprisingly sophisticated scoop. It’s got that elusive pistachio vibe everyone’s clamouring for, and it generally hits the mark without breaking the bank.

Season and Occasion Fit

Black Opium Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

The deep coffee, vanilla, and absinth notes, along with its pronounced sweetness and warmth, make this ideal for fall and winter, while the berry and floral heart gives it enough lift for spring. It can be heavy and cloying in hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

This is a seductive, bold scent that shines for evening, date, and formal occasions due to its intense sweetness and projection. It's too powerful for most office or sport situations.

Yummy Pistachio Oud

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Autumn

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

This scent's sweet, gourmand nature and underlying warmth make it excellent for dates and casual outings but less suited for the office or active wear. Its unique take on a popular accord could make it a conversation starter in social settings.
