Black Opium Neon
pitahaya · mandarin orange · citron
Black Opium Neon opens on pitahaya and mandarin, a fruity freshness that fades quickly. The heart brings coffee and orange blossom, then jasmine sambac, in a white floral accord with a warm edge. The base of vanilla and musk stays enveloping. Wear it in autumn or winter, when the air cools and evenings call for softness.
