The review
Seductive Woman scores 5.5 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Black Opium.
Scentual Obsessions 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 $133 per 100ml it costs 52% less than Black Opium — the 21st cheapest of 21 twins we can price.
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 Scentual Obsessions 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
Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium is pink pepper, orange blossom and pear at first, coffee, jasmine and bitter almond at its heart and vanilla, patchouli and cedar at the end. Scentual Obsessions set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- pink pepper
- orange blossom

Heart

Base

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.
