Oh, how long I've been searching for it! Christopher Dark Open has exactly the notes that I love in classical Opium! It's my favorite. It's not very long-lasting, only a few hours, but that doesn't make me love it any less.
The perfume is quite long-lasting. The scent is not for everyday use. It's more suitable for when you're in a specific mood and want something unique.))) I only apply a maximum of two sprays, otherwise it can be overpowering. It's similar to Opium, but in my opinion, it doesn't have such a strong carnation note.
Undoubtedly, it's a matter of personal preference, but I am a fan. If I were told to choose only one fragrance created in the past century, I would choose Opium. In the top notes, it has a slight lemonade-like, aldehydic quality, just enough to add effervescence without being soapy. As it settles, it evokes a sense of a church, with the scent of candle wax. I understand that it may be too heavy for some people. However, it doesn't matter to me; I enjoy it every time I use it. This replica is very successful and devoid of any flaws.
It is so beautiful. The quality is higher than the price. The fragrance starts with a sharp carnation (although carnation is not officially mentioned), then it settles down and starts playing with a riot of colors, sparks, and iridescence. It trails beautifully and fits perfectly into warm, dry autumn weather.
It is quite unique. There is some resemblance to certain old-school fragrances.
With this fragrance, I feel the urge to stand tall.
It lasts impressively long on my icy skin - around 5 hours.
It fades away beautifully with soft vanilla, smokiness, overwhelming weariness, and a light sadness. This fragrance is a memory. In my humble opinion.
P.S. Not for fans of fruity and fresh scents.
Heavy artillery.
These perfumes are very similar to Opium! It reminds me of my childhood scent. It's a high-quality copy! Warm, lingering, sweet, and church-like fragrance! It's a shame that the bottle is not similar, but that's just a minor detail. Thank you Makeup for the speed and quality of the product.
Not my scent, unfortunately. I can't imagine how to wear it or where to wear it, too sharp, persistent, monotonous, itchy, hasn't changed over time at all, just very exhausting. Barely washed it off my hand. 3 stars for longevity, and that's it. My grandmother used to have clove oil, it smelled much nicer. I don't want to and won't "fragrance" like this. +To the collection, on the shelf for unused.
A fragrance for those with specific preferences! Initially, there is a strong scent of cloves, which gradually softens over time, revealing a hint of frankincense and the aroma of church candles to my nose. It is long-lasting, but I recommend applying it at least 30 minutes before going out due to its heavy nature. This fragrance is definitely not suitable for summer, so it might be better to start with the mini version, as mentioned in previous reviews.
I ordered this product without testing it firsthand, solely relying on reviews. The reason being that it appears to be similar to YSL's Opium fragrance. And indeed, it does bear a striking resemblance. The longevity of the scent is moderate.

I bought it for my mom too, and it has an excellent scent!
