Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Black Opium Nuit Blanche EDP
A creamy, milky dream that many rate as the best Black Opium flanker. It’s a crying shame it was discontinued, as the hype is real for this addictive sweet treat.

Our Verdict - Pistache EDT
This one's a bit of a chameleon, often compared to pricier pistachio scents but with a lighter touch. It's an easy-going gourmand that's great for layering, though some find its performance a bit inconsistent, ranging from long-lasting to fleeting.

Season and Occasion Fit

Black Opium Nuit Blanche

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its sweet, milky gourmand nature makes it ideal for dates and casual outings, exuding a magnetic coziness. While some find it too strong for the office, its moderate projection and smoother profile compared to the original mean it can be worn with care in formal settings.

Pistache

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn Winter

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

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its sweet and nutty gourmand profile makes it ideal for casual wear and dates, though its lighter character means it's not overpowering for an office. It's too playful and sweet for formal occasions and completely unsuitable for sport.
