Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Belle d'Opium EDP
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.
Statement
Our Verdict - Belle d'Opium Éclat EDP
A luminous, less intense take on Opium, this version still packs a punch with its alluring blend of florals, fruits, and a smoky depth. However, it's not for everyone - some find its heavier notes challenging, while others adore its sophisticated, confident character.
