Black Opium Neon

Black Opium Neon offers a brighter, more youthful interpretation of the original Black Opium, emphasizing white florals and tropical fruit notes over the coffee-heavy profile of its predecessor. The opening features a lively burst of mandarin and citrus, followed by a soft, sweet floral heart dominated by orange blossom and dragonfruit, creating a pleasantly airy and playful scent. As it dries down, a subtle vanilla and musk base emerge, lending warmth and a powdery softness, though the coffee note remains faint and in the background. While the composition is harmonious and solidly built, many users report that the fragrance fades quickly on skin, with distinct longevity varying between non-existent and moderate. Its sillage is typically described as moderate or strong, making it noticeable from a short distance. The perfume stands out for its clear, bright scent profile—ideal for day-to-night wear and especially appreciated during spring and autumn—though its performance is inconsistent across skin chemistry. It is widely regarded as a more wearable, lighter alternative to the original Black Opium, celebrating a youthful, bubblegum-like gourmand character without the aggressive intensity fans of the original often associate with the brand.
