MIDNIGHT SILK is an original composition by LXPERFUME, created to evoke the scent profile made famous by YSL's Black Opium. It is not the designer fragrance, and we never pretend otherwise — that honesty is the whole point.
You keep $137.
The designer bottle: about $172. MIDNIGHT SILK: from $34.99. Same evening, same compliments — and any two bottles ship free in the U.S.
Before you decide.
Is MIDNIGHT SILK the same as Black Opium?
No — and anyone who tells you their alternative is identical is selling you a story. MIDNIGHT SILK is an original 30% extrait composition inspired by the scent profile of YSL's Black Opium. It lives in the same world: the character, the mood, the compliments. The bottle, the house, and the price tag are ours.
How long does it last on skin?
Six to eight hours and beyond — extrait de parfum carries 30% fragrance oil, roughly double a typical designer eau de parfum. Dry skin wears everything shorter; moisturize first and spray on pulse points.
What does it cost, honestly?
From $34.99 against roughly $172 for the designer bottle. U.S. shipping is free on any two bottles ($69.98+); single bottles ship for a flat $7.99. Thirty days to fall in love, or send it back.
