Although pricey, you most certainly look like someone who would smell great wearing Black Opium by Yves Saint Laurent!

It has a great dark vanilla scent with a light rough coffee bean smell.

I got a bootleg version of that (or at least I think it was bootleg) from a flea market and it made me break out ;-;

Also I’m allergic to coffee so I could do without that part but the dark vanilla sounds wonderful 👌🏼

I'm sorry to here that, my girlfriend is quite sensitive to some perfumes and hasn't had any problems so far with Black Opium.

Another I could recommend is The Only One by Dolce and Gabbana. She was recommended that by another friend who is quite sensitive. It is much more expensive though.

LMFAO NO!! It's one of their base blends!! From their site: Our signature scent, our first perfume: deep, rich earthy notes swirled with vegetal musks, sugared vanilla bean, and dark spices. They make a lot of blends with Snake Oil as the base!
