Fragrance Composition
Black Opium was developed by a team of prominent perfumers including Nathalie Lorson and Marie Salamagne in collaboration with Olivier Cresp and Honorine Blanc. This fragrance features a multi-layered composition that begins with top notes combining vibrant pink pepper, refreshing orange blossom, and a subtle touch of pear, creating a lively and captivating opening.
