The review
On paper, Opera Noir MAISON is a reasonable bet if you want Black Opium for less.
Maison Alhambra 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.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Maison Alhambra 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 Opera Noir MAISON 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.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
