About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Black Opium Shine On (2014) is a limited-edition flanker that amplifies the original's coffee-vanilla core with a sparkling top. The opening is bright and slightly sharp: juicy pear and pink pepper over a hint of orange blossom. As it settles, the heart reveals a bold, bittersweet blend of coffee, jasmine, bitter almond, and licorice—a dark, gourmand twist that feels both addictive and sophisticated. The base is warm and enveloping, with vanilla, patchouli, cashmere wood, and cedar creating a lasting, cozy trail. This is a scent for those who love the original Black Opium but want a brighter, more effervescent start. It suits evening wear, cooler weather, and anyone who appreciates a sweet-but-edgy oriental vanilla. Collectors will value it as a distinctive, limited edition that captures the DNA of its predecessor while adding a unique shimmer.
