Description
A comforting soft skin musk with notes of sandalwood, vanilla, musk, bergamot, and ambrette. Cozy, sweet but not not overly so, and comfy year-round. The sandalwood, musk, and vanilla work together to create a soothing base and the touch of bergamot adds freshness.
Perfumer’s Comments:: Many musk scents smell too synthetic to me, so it’s a challenge to create them. My favorite types are woodsy musks, and I’m currently working on a new one. Opal is a less woodsy, cozier type of musk, though it does have a touch of sandalwood. I’ve had people tell me Opal is their favorite scent for times when they need something that is “safe” to wear without bothering anyone around them because it’s a soft, quiet skin scent.
Notes: sandalwood, vanilla, musk, bergamot, ambrette.
The perfume was created by Laurie Erickson in 2006.

On me it is pure musk and I am not fan of pure musk. There are numerous oil perfumes that I’ve tried and they smell very similar (some of them practically the same) like Opal.
Too bad I cannot feel bit of top notes.

It is a very light and cosy and safe perfume, very intimate and stays close to a skin. It’s vanillic component makes it velvety and warm. The spices warm it up so that vanilla is not too sweet. It is like a soft warm blancket which surrounds us on a fresh winter morning.
