The review

On paper, Opulent is a reasonable bet if you want Black Opium for less.

Scent Labz 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 $40 it costs 71% less than Black Opium.

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 Scent Labz 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 Opulent 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.
