I have just discovered Pocket Scents, having found it via Amazon. I ordered 3 Ladies Scents, this one, Orchide Vanille and Entice. Fast delivery of well packed purchases within two days. Firstly, I tried Entice, though for me this was more the scent of Man Cologne so gave it to my husband. I then tried Narcotic Noir followed by Orchide Vanille. On first spray I was disappointed, I didn,t like either. Within five minutes I thought “what,s that lovely smell” and discovered it was me!! These scents need a five minute settle period and then come into their own. Both are beautiful, very like the Brand they represent. The scent lasts forever!! I am going to order Flowerbomb now . Well Done Pocket Scents! I have you in my “favourites ” box now and look forward to seeing new perfumes as they arrive. Great service!! November 2016

Delighted with my purchase and can’t believe how nice this smells. Can’t wait to place another order for this again and try some new ones. Ordered on Monday and was delivered next day. Thank again.

This is an amazing perfume. I did not smell the original before, but all I can say is that I don’t even want to, as this version is beautiful and long lasting. The postage was so quick and I am hooked now to try as many scents here as possible.
What a surprise!!! Would definitely recommend these gems of perfumes 🙂

Couldn’t tell this apart from black opium .. fantastic scent at unbelievable price
Lavinia Byrne –
This is exactly the same as YSL black opium and as long lasting ( 8 hours +) well done pocket scents

I purchased Narcotic Noir when purchasing my 3 x 100ml deal of Elysium. (was delighted to also receive a handbag refill atomiser gift)
I have always worn Aromatics elixir by Clinique so the Elysium was a godsend when prices became too high for me.
I chose 2 x Elysium & 1 of this Narcotic Noir after reading the reviews here.
I’ve always loved the original Opium but after learning of it’s dramatic change, due to Carnation no longer added, & the terrible many reviews on YSL website, I decided never to buy again unless it changed back.
Narcotic Noir has the YSL perfume signature & the aroma is of a very expensive, sweet fragrance.It’s a pleasure to wear & will turn heads towards those wearing it.
It has unmistakeable class of a very expensive fragrance.
All in all I’ve found another perfume I love in Narcotic Noir

This was my second choice in my recent order. The fragrance is absolutely beautiful. As an Opium lover I need look no further and I am thrilled with the price. I would go as far as to say this is “better” than the original. Thank you

Bought this for my wife to try along with some scents for me,they are all top quality,
She is delighted after owning the original in the past, she didn’t believe me when I told her the price I had paid.
What a great service and true value for money
Bruce Allardyce –
One of three scents I bought for my wife. This is one I like her to wear. The comparisons with the richer YSL cousin have been well documented by the other reviewers. However, looking at Narcotic Noir as a fragrance individually it is a Vanilla, Cedarwood and Orange and Pear combination that I suppose is an “oriental”. For the price, the quality is amazing and it has lasting power and good sillage. We could still smell it on her jumper two days later. Quick and easy delivery as well.
Jane Marie –
I’ve ordered from pocket scents before and have always been very pleased with the excellent service and fabulous scents. I ordered Narcotic Noir as I’ve always liked Opium but couldn’t justify the price tag. Well I need never feel guilty again. This is absolutely amazing. Thank you pocket scents. Another very happy customer ☺️
Reshma –
Wonderful perfume just like opium, smells very good and would never bother to buy original
Juliana T. –
I have been obsessed with Black Opium for years, but as a student could not afford this beautiful fragrance.
I was so happy to discover this perfume. It is absolutely amazing and I am getting compliments from all of my friends.
Definitely a high-quality scent! This is my second bottle, and I will be probably purchasing it forever 😀
Bethany –
Can’t get over how much this smells like black opium!!! Seriously impressed, wouldn’t be able to tell the difference and without the hefty price tag.
Francesca Allen –
So good, smells just like black opium if not a bit sweeter, which is better in my opinion. I have received so many complements wearing this from total strangers. Lasts all day and I can smell this on my clothes even after a wash, amazing value for money will buy this again and again!
M L P –
A beautiful fragrance. Lasts all day. So many people approach me to ask what I’m wearing as it leaves a wonderful scent behind as I pass by. Since finding this perfume, I have bought it over again and recommend to others.
EMB –
Smells just like Black Opium and great customer service. Will be purchasing again!
Eileen –
Just bought this and OMG smells just like Black Opium will definitely be buying more, also bought Advent, was a bit unsure at first but after a few minutes the smell was gorgeous. Well done Pocket Scents.
Emma –
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much when I purchased this, but I couldn’t justify buying Black Opium all the time. It smells exactly the same, maybe even a bit sweeter than the original. I put this on one wrist and Opium on the other, and I genuinely couldn’t tell them apart. Thanks Matt 🙂
Pam –
This is my first purchase and it won’t be my last. Gorgeous long lasting smell, affordable to use every day. Fast delivery and well packaged with delivery to my front door, what more could I ask for? Perfect.
Kevan Allan –
Wow, My wife was delighted with this perfume Matt. She has the original black opium and can’t tell the difference. Great addition to any lady’s collection. Fantastic smell.
Thank you.
Mandy –
This perfume is so good, my friend smelt it and wanted details of how to order! Smells just like Black Opium, a deliciously sweet and light fragrance. Super quality, lasts all day. Very fast delivery – highly recommended.

John Price –
Fell in love with Opium when I first met my wife 40 years ago. Never tried Black Opium before, but the Pocket Scents version is sensational. Still does the trick for me after all these years, and my wife can afford to wear it all the time!! Fabulous, and such a bargain, will be buying it by the litre. Thanks Matt
Millie –
Got this today with orchid vanille. So excited they are both amazing. I wouldn’t buy anywhere else now
Andrew –
Stunning perfume my daughter loves it, & very quick delivery will be ordering more
Susie –
Another great purchase from Matt… ordered narcotic noir and more orchid vanilla for stocking fillers and of course a bottle for myself !!! I love wearing perfumes every day and at these prices and with such great quality it’s a no brainer
Jon Snow –
I know this finds itself in the Ladies section but this is unisex, it’s beautiful i don’t want to compare it, it feels a little fresher and a little easier to wear for me personally and I absolutely love the original. This is excellent
Dianne –
Have been wearing this perfume for years now and absolutely love it I always get complimented on how lovely I smell..
Erin Robinson –
Ordered Narcotic Noir after looking for a dupe for black opium as it is my favourite perfume but obviously on the pricey side. They smell exactly alike I am so happy with my purchase and definitely recommend this perfume to everyone, such a beautiful smell! Will definitely buy this perfume instead of black opium from now on- hopefully they can bring out a bigger size bottle!
Amie P –

Would defiantly recommend! thanks again

This is a scent my late mum used to wear and I have recently purchased it for my sister as a gift. I absolutely cannot believe just how exact this is regarding the scent itself, how it projects and how long it lasts. Well done Pocket Scents for yet another fantastic fragrance! And as always first class service.
