Angel Nova לעומת Black Opium

Angel Nova is appreciated by the community for its juicy, tropical fruit profile and impressive longevity, making it a solid summer choice for fruit lovers. However, the synthetic raspberry and lychee notes overpower the floral components entirely, creating a very linear scent that may disappoint those seeking a balanced fruity-floral composition or expecting the rose to remain prominent throughout wear.

Black Opium by YSL is recognized by the r/fragrance community as a popular statement fragrance choice, particularly mentioned as an example of a bold evening scent. While it has dedicated fans who appreciate its strong projection and distinctive character, the community acknowledges it's polarizing and not suitable for everyday or versatile wear, with some finding it overly sweet or artificial depending on skin chemistry.
