Electric Cherry לעומת Black Opium

Cherry Smoke receives genuine praise as a sophisticated, well-executed fragrance, while Electric Cherry disappoints as an overpriced, generic mall fragrance. The broader community consensus is that Tom Ford's luxury pricing has become indefensible, with many recommending decants or waiting for price drops rather than purchasing full bottles at the suggested retail price.

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.
