Fancy לעומת Black Opium

Jessica Simpson's Fancy is generally well-regarded as a celebrity fragrance that defies expectations by offering a genuine gourmand experience with vanilla and caramel notes. The community appreciates its luxurious quality and strong performance, though some note it can be quite powerful and may require restraint in office settings. One wearer noted the scent has become sweeter over time, suggesting possible formula changes or perception shifts.

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.
