Noire Feline

Noire Feline opens with a sweet, fruity lift of pink pepper, orange blossom and pear before sinking into the signature Black Opium heart of rich coffee, bitter almond, licorice and jasmine - the same composition the Baby Cat Collector edition dressed up. The base settles into creamy vanilla, cedar, cashmere wood and patchouli for a deep, sweet, slightly dark drydown. The original Black Opium is a seductive gourmand with a moderate-to-strong opening that softens into an intimate skin scent; this Perfume Parlour interpretation keeps the coffee-almond-vanilla signature but renders it more two-dimensional, with the sweet gourmand accord pushed forward while the floral-woody depth sits thinner and fades faster to the skin. It is a cosy, flirtatious cool-weather choice for dates and evenings, capturing the Black Opium mood at a budget price.
