About This Perfume
Maison Alhambra Opera Noir smells like creamy vanilla with jasmine and a hint of bitter coffee. Pear and pink pepper open it with a juicy, lightly spiced lift. Jasmine, coffee and more pink pepper form the heart, where the bitter coffee balances the florals. Vanilla, cedar and patchouli make the base warm and smooth.
This eau de parfum leans feminine, and the community reads it as floral, romantic and close to the skin. It is mostly an evening scent for spring, fall and winter, but it is soft enough for the office and casual days, and it suits a date well. Released in 2022.
Longevity is moderate and projection sits around arm's length, staying fairly close to the wearer.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone who loves the coffee, vanilla and white floral combination and wants it soft.
- Sample first if: you want more projection than a close, intimate scent gives.
- Skip if: you do not enjoy coffee notes.
Around $30.
