Black Orchid - Eau de Parfum

A NEW FAVORITE

I used to HATE this perfume because I used to think it was too strong and overpowering. Although, I gave it a chance again and wow. The way it settles on my skin, it makes you feel like a smart sophisticated woman who's got herself together. It is such a unique scent which makes it so versitale to layer with other perfumes (preferrably vanilla scented perfumes). I've layered this with kayali 28 and ysl black opium and OMG. It's sweet but sexy. It would make you the type of girl that's hard to get.

Highly priced

Love this purfume my favored but the price has been jacked up alot

A TRUE ICON

You simply can’t go wrong with Black Orchid—dark, sexy, and unapologetically bold. A true icon in a bottle

Not feeling it

I purchased with my scent certificate, but ended up giving it away. It doesn't smell as good with my chemistry as I would hope. Old fragrance vibes.

This fragrance is not everybody’s cuppa tea! It’s a diva fragrance.. so mysterious, classy and upmarket! It changes the way you feel about yourself

I want to live in this bottle

Omg this smells so good I’m going to go back for a second bottle just to have . It’s so earthy and just smells rich I absolutely love it .

Mysteriously delicious scent

My current go-to fragrance, I’m obsessed. Reminds me of sweet black liquorice candy mixed with incense.

Amazing fragrance dark mysterious gorgeous scent fits my personality

Somebody lied to me.

I saw someone say that this perfume smells like cigarettes. Unless my nose is deceiving me, black orchid does not infact smell like cigarettes. It kind of smells like an old lady, or a hippie. It's not bad, just not what I was expecting. It is very strong though. I sprayed it onto a cotton pad, and now it's all I can smell. It's giving me a slight headache but that's because I'm very sensitive to things.

Spray into air first to get full spread of perfume

This is yum for me... if applied correctly, for those who can't handle that bitter manly smell it has (on me anyway) . I find if I spray directly on skin, I don't receive the full bouquet/body of the perfume and then it smells like mens cologne. It almost stops it from fully blossoming all the warm & subtle sweet scents from it. I spray it in the air in front of me and wait a half sec for it to unload and walk into it. I do that with wrists and hair etc., and it lasts all day. It's my new favorite!

As someone who is quiet and shy, I've always gone with lighter scents. I didn't want anything bold. As other reviewers have said this perfume requires confidence to wear. Black Orchid haunted me for weeks before I caved & told myself that I'd FIND the confidence to wear it. But the thing is, wearing it is what gave me the confidence! The scent is rich & deep, calming yet exciting. I bought my bottle 2 yrs ago? I'm still obsessed. I hope this scent stays forever because I will be lost without it.

Alluring sex appeal

Absolutely alluring, sexy, mysterious, has depth, not for the faint of heart. My everyday go to, you gotta have attitude to wear this gem, packs a punch, only few can carry.
