Midnight Café

I’m a big Black Opium fan - I know that’s sometimes frowned upon, but it smells really good on my skin and I also really enjoy the small nuances of most of the flankers. So much so that I actually own 5 of them🙈 I also own the Zara dupe (Gardenia) so I feel that I can confidently say that this... this smells like the real thing! The quality of the ingredients, the way it opens up, the way the scents are balanced... this is the real deal!! I don’t know if I would even say that this smells like a flanker, but instead a true dupe of the OG. It is soooo similar to the OG scent. Just like the OG it is so sensual, so warm, with a light spice Highly, highly recommend if you like Black Opium! I’ll definitely be keeping it as a quick grab when I don’t want to waste the real one. Such good quality for the price!

seems as though i am one of the lucky ones with the right body chemistry to elicit a distinct and pleasant coffee note after the dry down. the longer this is on my skin the darker and dirtier the coffee and patchouli notes become. creamy custardy jasmine is still the main star but the deeper you inhale the more you feel the earthiness in your chest and throat. the coffee stands out without ever outshining the sweet jasmine. you have to search for it. didnt really like black opium but i absolutely love this fragrance. less complex but evolves slowly and beautifully. such a wonderful little fragrance for a great price. one of my new favorites i could wear every day in any season.

I really like this. I'm a little unsure why people say this is a dupe for Black Opium. Maybe it is in the same category of warm and sweet, but I don't find them that similar. To me this perfume is really easy to wear. It's a balance of sweet and pretty, but it's not boring. There is something interesting and inviting about it. I think it could be worn day or night but I think it's better for cooler weather and I feel could be worn to work or out at night. I feel like the name Midnight Cafe captures the vibe of this perfume well.

honestly? yes, a flatter, less complex version of black opium. however, i find it much more dark and enchanting than black opium - black opium is midnight café's softer, more milky & synthetic sister and i also luckily have the right skin chemistry for those deep coffee and patchouli notes in midnight café to shine through. i bought this for ~$20 at marshalls and let it macerate for around 3 months which was DEFINITELY a great decision. wearing this for a new year's party as we speak!!

ironically I've never smelled the original perfume that this one is duping (I'm new to perfume, ok?) but I love love love midnight cafe! it lowkey carried me through senior year of highschool lmao. it feels like drinking a coffee late at night while curled up with a blanket, it feels like basking in a field of jasmine flowers at midnight, it feels dark and mysterious yet comforting and soft at the same time. so so good for a 30 dollar perfume from target <3

I'm in love with this girl, super strong and lasts me all day. She is beautiful and I smell yummy spices, sweetness and layers of gourmand style deliciousness. A repurchase for sure. This one, Magnetic candy, and not another cherry, are my absolute favorites of the line. I am loving my new purchase of Before the Rainbow also but those above are my top favs since I am a gourmand perfume lover.

Midnight Cafe is really a really pretty sweet coffee-jasmine combo. It's like a gentler version of Black Opium, but also resembles a less fruity version of Britney Spears Prerogative. I love wearing it but have to keep re-spraying every 2 or 3 hours to keep the party going -- in my opinion, its only disadvantage. I love two other Fine'ry fragrances, also: Magnetic Candy and Sun-Phoria.

It’s like a simpler, mellower Black Opium. Coffee, something creamy, something vanillic with some patchouli in the base. Still sexy, but not as in-your-face as the original. I like wearing this to bed and saving my Black Opium for going out. I’d recommend this to someone wants the same scent profile without the price tag. Not a bad job for a fragrance I paid less than $30 for.

I love this one a lot. I’ve actually still not smelled Black Opium and its flankers in their entirety but this version is good on its own. It’s a bit dark floral but then has the delicious coffee note. Can be layered with a lot. Honestly just one I love to smell over and over but would not be a daytime scent

Ugh, I love this. Can’t believe this costs as little as it does. For sure has Black Opium vibes but deeper and more sensual. It’s seductive and luscious and rich and mysterious. My only complaint is longevity but it actually performs better than the Black Opium. What a delightful little find at Target!

This is very linear, and I love it because the scent is so nice. It's nothing spectacular, but such a nice, sweet, comforting jasmine with creamy sweetness. I find this lasts for several hours, but I usually use it at night as a calming, slightly sensual scent. Great for the price!

I'm not a fan of the original Black Opium, but I love the Le Parfum flanker. This is a much lighter, more approachable take on their general DNA. I especially like to pair it with Fine'ry's Sweet on the Outside to add some extra vanilla and complexity.

I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this because of the patchouli note. I think this is patchouli done right! It definitely doesn't dominate or take over.This is incredible. Especially for the price point. I will buy this over and over again!

this is the coziest loveliest velvety scents ive ever owned. it smells like love to me? the scent even leaves a nice flavor on your tongue when smelled close range. its an overall great mildly sexy scent

This is a pretty good dupe for black opium. Missing a touch of the woods and licorice, but otherwise it still satisfies my itch for now. Lasts for 5-6 hours on me. The price point is pretty decent too.

As a few folks have already pointed out, this is very much a lighter, less complex dupe for Black Opium. On me the coffee note comes out fairly clear, and for $30 at Target this is a pretty solid deal.

Smells exactly like my childhood backyard during a spring flower bloom. It lasts FOREVER on me, and I’ve slept in it and woken up with it still easy to smell. It is a very strong, very floral scent.

I have never smelled black opium but this is really nice. I don't smell the coffee, none of scent notes is not stronger then the other ones imo. It's a good combo/blend of scent notes.

Definitely is identical to The only one by Dolce ! It actually boosts the longevity of the fragrance. It’s also a sweet dupe for Black Opium. Very surprised at target on this one

I love love love this fragrance. Smells exactly like spring lilacs to me, but if I really think I can get the custard and coffee. Identical to YSL Black Opium to my nose.
