I sprayed this on my wrist on my lunch time this week and omg I was addicted, the vanilla was still projecting 24 hrs after off my work jacket. Had to buy a 50ml bottle which I’m waiting impatiently for today.
I love it! 🥰 Smelled it in store and was absolutely smitten by the sweetness and vanilla/coffee notes. Ordered it online and realized only when I got it that I had ordered the classic BO EDP (which explained the much smaller price). Didn't like that one. Ordered Le Parfum now and couldn't be happier! Great review❤ need to check out you blog too!
I’m a 41 year old man and my mum has the original and i love it when I smell it on her. I’ve worn it myself and like the way it smells on my too but was wondering if one of the flankers leans more unisex/masculine as the original is probably slightly on the feminine side for me to purchase a full bottle for my own fragrance collection. Thanks for any help.
I am a 40 year old man and I also wore the original layered with a heavy dose of a boozy-vanilla fragrance I made. However, as my wife took my original bottle recently...I ordered samples of the "Black Opium Le Parfum" that this video is reviewing. Once they arrive I believe I'll have the perfect "Black Opium" in house and will proceed to order a full-size bottle if it works well with my skin. As this one has all of the more feminine notes taken out and more vanilla added...I truly believe this is what I've been hoping for all these years of dealing with the original "Black Opium" and being left wanting...
@@Detman101 I purchased a full bottle of the “Le Parfum” after testing a couple of times in stores. It’s great and completely what I was looking for, the vanilla is intoxicating. I Love it.
@@caspar17 I received my samples in the mail today, and immediately ordered a full bottle! Then after the addiction taking me over and me wiping out the sample on my body, I went to Macys to abuse their tester. Lets just say that I'll be going back to Macys every day until my full bottle arrives. This fragrance is soooooo amazingly PERFECT!!! This is EXACTLY what I always wanted the original to be!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I tried it two times at the shop. First time it didnt impress me that much, but my boyfriend complimented it:D i tried it later, yesterday, and it left on my body, skin, smelling so good.. and i still can feel vanilla today:) so ordered it🖤 its a warm and sexy femine smell. I loved YSL Libre as well, owned it before, they both are a little similar for me.
Bottle ❤️. I really love all the flankers from black opium. I adore the first one that came out . Coffee ,vanilla and white flowers. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
It just doesn’t sound to me (from everything I’ve heard) that it’s what everyone was hoping for and expecting. You would assume it would be just super amped up coffee and vanilla. But I think that’s already the case with extreme. We just needed a more extreme extreme one. 😂
The original black opium has been my signature and favorite perfume for years! I blind bought this one and I have a feeling I’m really going to love it because of how much I love the original!

I tried it the other day. It's a vanilla dominant perfume it literraly smells like vanilla extract on my skin and it didn't last long. It's a no for me. Great review Soki ♥
Hello, I try these one yesterday at Macy's and I love it. I end up buying others perfume just because I still have a little left of the OG, but I am definitely replacing my black opium for this one. To me, the smell was intoxicated I could not stop smelling my wrist. Thank you for your review.
I am always trying it at my local Shoppers and i find it creamy and lots of vanilla, i really like it, but i own 2 already and its quite expensive. Thank you for your review.
I walked past a perfume shop by chance today so decided to ask if there was any new sweet perfume. The assistant handed me this one saying it arrived today. My favourite note ever is vanilla so this is stunning to me! 😍 Need to test more on skin but will probably end up buying it. 😀 I have BO Floral shock which is amazing for warmer weather, sadly discontinued.
Hi, Sophie! I have a sample of Black Opium Original one, it is a Coffee and Vanilla Bomb, definitely flirty perfume. I would like to try out Le Parfum Version of it as well, seems like something I would like. :-) Take care and sending much love Lucy
Boots have some how got this Fragrance £13 cheaper than all other retailers 🤷🏾♀️ £62 for the 30ml starting... Everywhere else is £75... Bought it as I prefer the more amped up versions over original. Thank you for your consistency.
Hey Soki☺️Thank you very mutch for this review. I am obsessed with the vanilla and the creamy element of Black opium le parfum, but what bothers me is the coffee. I'm looking for a fragrance like this (on budget) but without the coffee. Do you have a tip for me?
Nice informative video! I was just wondering whats the difference between the Extreme and the discontinued Nuit Blanche flanker? Glad if anyone can explain 🥰
Hello Soki, thanks for your perfect review 🌺 I never cared so much for Black Opium, always found them very strong to the headache point… I had a chance to smell the new one Black Opium Le Parfum last Saturday and OMG 😍 it was love at first sniff ♥. Must buy it 😍
I know my comment is not about Black Opium. But I have feeling that that Dior is going to reformulate Absolutely blooming. Should i grab a bottle?😂 but it's cost 126 per 100 ml Soki please do video about greedy ladies. When I bye perfume and then feeling guilty for money that I spend on them.I have 40 perfumes,I know it is craisy but still can't live if I not bye my belowed Dior❤ love your videos. You are the best
I spoke with Dior this week and they confirmed absolutely blooming has stopped being made. I’ve done an article listing where still have it sokilondon.com/miss-dior-absolutely-blooming-is-discontinued/
Thank you! I Absolutely want to test! My favourite from the line: The discontinued Black Opium Floral Shock, that has the solar vibes as well the new Le Perfum.
Hi Soki, thank you for your review. I have tested it, but I don't like it. It is too much for me, and its similar to kayali vanilla 28. It is so sweet. I love illicit green, its my favorite.
Hi! i have worn kayali 28 for a few months and have also tested the black opium le parfum. kayali smells heavenly but has very poor lasting power. within the first 1-2 hours you don’t leave a trail anymore. the new black opium doesn’t perform strongly either, but it does have more presence and the dry down is 100% like kayali. however, if you don’t care about the black opium DNA at all, i’d say buy kayali and overspray a bit. it’s cheaper. hope this helps!
I don't like any of the Black opium perfumes.. But this one sounded good.. But nooooo.. I smelled it today, didn't like it at all.. My hunt for the perfect perfume for me continues 😊😊
I think that would be totally cool, some girls I know wear make cologne and deodorant and it is sexy, I don’t see why it couldn’t work with roles reversed! It does change with your PH levels. I bought it today and it is a sexy feminine vanilla after sitting on the skin for a bit If that’s what you’re going for. Either way yes.

I actually Love this one a lot. It smells very cozy. It does remind me a lot of the Lancome Tresor la Nuit a la Folie which I own and love.

Thank you for your review.
Can you recommend any perfumes that smell like black opium nuit blanche?
i have found online YSL OPIUM original . i tried black and floral but original is truly the best for me .
I am always trying it at my local Shoppers and i find it creamy and lots of vanilla, i really like it, but i own 2
already and its quite expensive. Thank you for your review.

I bought the Nuit Blanche and it’s amazing!
I miss the OG black opium EDT. I can't find it anymore. It was the best version by miles.
I love them all - and collect them all!
How’s the cinnamon in this ?? I’ve heard it’s a vanilla lovers perfume but I’m a spicy gal??
My mum said it's more like the Original YSL Opium. Not the newer Black Opium. I love this new version.
Hi, Sophie! I have a sample of Black Opium Original one, it is a Coffee and Vanilla Bomb, definitely flirty perfume. I would like to try out Le Parfum Version of it as well, seems like something I would like. :-) Take care and sending much love Lucy
Which opium ist most longlasting and have the best sillage?
Extreme :)
@@SokiLondon is it for summer nights ok?
I just picked up the travel size of it. I need to wear it more but right now I really like it.
I am addicted to black opium
This is my favorite flanker 🥰🥰
Thanks for a great video again 😍
So nice of you
It’s so pretty
I love your Chanel is the best.
You are so kind
Sounds lovely!
Hi, Sophie! Fragrantica posted an update- in 2024 there will be launched Black Opium Over Red with a cherry note!
I saw that too!
I ordered this from New Parfums in France (55€ for the 30ml). I can't wait for this to get here! Sounds right up my alley
What gives a fragrance a sharpness to it? I love my Si Fiori but the opening is sharp to me. Would you know what note is doing that?
Great review:) can’t get over the price. I wish they would make it stronger or simply develop a new line. Too many flankers.

You want "Christina Aguilera - Destination".
You may also want to try "Lattafa - Yara Moi".
@@Detman101 👌🏻Thanks for your suggestions! I'll try both. ☺️
Is it more longlasting then the original black opium ??? And can I wear this in spring and summer nights ?
It’s like a late summer and early fall kinda scent I feel like. It remind me of autumn warmth
I only like the YSL Black Opium Extreme and the Le Parfum. ❤❤ The rest is not my cup of tea/coffee.
Nice informative video! I was just wondering whats the difference between the Extreme and the discontinued Nuit Blanche flanker? Glad if anyone can explain 🥰
Very nice Products
The coffee note is what makes it
Bonjour quelqun peur me dire combien il ya de parfum differant dans la gamme ?
Hello Soki, thanks for your perfect review 🌺 I never cared so much for Black Opium, always found them very strong to the headache point… I had a chance to smell the new one Black Opium Le Parfum last Saturday and OMG 😍 it was love at first sniff ♥. Must buy it 😍
its beautiful isn't it!
@@SokiLondon Indeed ❤
this black opium line has never impressed me..best one I have ever smelled was Opium EDP/edt maybe this is gonna be a winner.
I liked it as a guy. Smells like coffee and gelato. A guy could pull this off on a cold day

Love absolutely blooming ..so sad..I was hoping they'd make another like it that lasted longer and same scent but stronger
Oh nooooo!!!!! I Love absolutely blooming 🥹🥹🥹🥹
I love black opium intense but I think it's been discontinued
Yep discontinued
Thank you! I Absolutely want to test! My favourite from the line: The discontinued Black Opium Floral Shock, that has the solar vibes as well the new Le Perfum.
I loved that one too! This is similar :)
nice product
Hi Soki, soleil is pronounced so-lay 🙂
Or so lei
Hi beautiful Soki ❤
Hi Soki, thank you for your review. I have tested it, but I don't like it. It is too much for me, and its similar to kayali vanilla 28. It is so sweet. I love illicit green, its my favorite.
Which is stronger and longer lasting to you? Kayali vanilla 28 or Black Opium le Parfum?
Hard to say.. I have tested it once.
Hi! i have worn kayali 28 for a few months and have also tested the black opium le parfum. kayali smells heavenly but has very poor lasting power. within the first 1-2 hours you don’t leave a trail anymore. the new black opium doesn’t perform strongly either, but it does have more presence and the dry down is 100% like kayali. however, if you don’t care about the black opium DNA at all, i’d say buy kayali and overspray a bit. it’s cheaper. hope this helps!
I like Le Parfum, Nuit Blanche and Floral Shock.. I hate the original.
I don't like any of the Black opium perfumes.. But this one sounded good.. But nooooo.. I smelled it today, didn't like it at all.. My hunt for the perfect perfume for me continues 😊😊
I love it .. 🥰🥰
Nice
I mean the regular id pretty strong the extreme and intense are even stronger what do you want from the le perfume burn your nose hair🤣
😂😂😂
GREAT
I was sad I payed 160 for the scent I didn’t want
Do you think men could wear it?
I think that would be totally cool, some girls I know wear make cologne and deodorant and it is sexy, I don’t see why it couldn’t work with roles reversed! It does change with your PH levels. I bought it today and it is a sexy feminine vanilla after sitting on the skin for a bit If that’s what you’re going for. Either way yes.
@@katie-uv8dd thank you. When I tried it on my skin it smelled so good.
It’s not a different scent it’s just a more concentrated version requiring less and lasting longer r
No it’s definitely very different scent
@@SokiLondon thank you
