Our verdict on Belle d'Opium: Statement

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.

About

Belle d'Opium opens with a mysterious blend of vibrant jasmine, lily, and gardenia, softened by a hint of juicy mandarin. The heart introduces a seductive smokiness from incense and tobacco, spiced with pepper and a touch of ripe peach. It settles into a warm, sensual base of creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, and sweet vanilla, leaving an intoxicating, long-lasting trail.
