Willow לעומת Black Opium

The community consensus on Skylar Willow is decidedly negative, with multiple users describing the fragrance as synthetic and body spray-like with minimal longevity and projection. While the brand's reformulation efforts for sensitive skin are noted positively, reviewers consistently recommend avoiding Skylar fragrances entirely and suggest better alternatives or purchasing from discount retailers like TJ Maxx where prices are significantly lower.

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.
