Opera Noir vs Black Opium
Opera Noir offers the coffee, white flowers and vanilla direction associated with Black Opium. Pear and pink pepper brighten the opening before coffee deepens the heart. Patchouli and cedar ground the sweet finish; a precise difference in coffee strength or longevity isn't established by the notes alone.
