The review
On paper, Fleur Noire is a strong bet if you want Black Opium for less.
ALT Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Black Opium's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $48 per 100ml it costs 83% less than Black Opium — the 11th cheapest of 21 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength ALT Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on pink pepper, orange blossom and pear, turns to coffee, jasmine and bitter almond, and settles into vanilla, patchouli and cedar. That is the brief Fleur Noire is working from.
Top
- pink pepper
- orange blossom
- pear
Heart
- coffee
- jasmine
- bitter almond
Base
- vanilla
- patchouli
- cedar
For the after-hours. Black coffee and white flowers pour over vanilla and patchouli — sweet, addictive, unmistakably night.
