What wearers say

“To my nose it has similarities with Rochas Femme, minus Cumin note. Smells good, but after smelling Rochas Femme, i dont think i need this one. Smells high quality, just like Rochas Femme, but price difference is almost 10xEdit: Opera's drydown is a bit different, same direction but more beautiful than Rochas. Opera is more wearable than RochasEdit2: I still bought it,lol. Drydown is really good.”

“Interesting fragrance.Wasn’t fan of the opening at all, but I’m enjoying the dry down very much, it has got smooth and satisfying smell.Scent good, performance great, still overpriced.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“The GOAT. One of the best performing fragrances , i reccomend trying to get an older batch with the old presentation so the performance is as good as possible, the rose is done to perfection and dried fruit note has me drooling... extremally addictive, i smell my erist every other minute because the smell is so hypnotising and so flawless. literal masterpiece, easily wearable, unisex and versitaile. its my daily for winter but for an average person that should be a special occasion scent i guess. 4 sprays is more than enough.”

Moderate to Strong

Sillage

The clone exhibits slightly reduced longevity (6-7 hours vs 8+ hours) and a more linear scent progression, missing some of Opera's subtle mid-development nuances. Sillage is moderately lighter, making it a softer alternative that works well for office or casual wear settings.

Sillage

The clone provides good note-for-note accuracy in the opening and mid-notes but falls slightly short in base longevity and overall projection. The oud presence may feel more synthetic or less integrated compared to the original's seamless composition.
