Opoponax vs Black Orchid

Opoponax by Les Nereides does not appear to be discussed positively in this Reddit thread. The fragrance was mentioned only in passing as part of a decluttering discussion where the owner expressed lack of interest in keeping it, suggesting limited appeal within the community.

The r/fragrance community has polarized opinions on Black Orchid, with many praising its unique dark, artistic character and exceptional longevity, while others find the heavy patchouli and earthy base off-putting. Most wearers report getting compliments when wearing it in the right context, though it requires careful application due to its extreme strength and works best as an occasional evening fragrance rather than daily wear.
