I'm looking for SIL who likes shoulder-pad-wearing ballsy 80s perfumes like Poison. What's a contemporary equivalent? Something as recent as possible as she has a massive 'fragrance wardrobe' (boak, I actually just read that phrase on a scary perfume forum) and I want to give her something new.

Many thanks in advance!

Chanel Coco Noir is pretty new, fairly ballsy and a twist on a classic.

Opium usually do a high powered variant round Xmas, often limited edition.

It's called Black Opium, black glittery bottle. Looks pretty ott. Haven;t sniffed it.

Coco Noir is way over budget!!! (which is around the £50 mark)

The packaging is gorgeous and very her. I think we have a win.
