About the Product
Created by the design house of Yves Saint Laurent in 1977, Opium is classified as a refined, oriental, soft fragrance. This feminine scent begins with notes of mandarin and bergamot, then myrrh, jasmine and carnation. It is completed with a final note of Amber.
Opium opens with the tangy scent of mandarin orange blended with lilly. Heart notes deepen into the exotic notes of Myhhr and Jasmine. This classic fragrance is most noted for its long-lasting and intense base notes that include patchouli, opoponax, vanilla and amber.
Fragrance Family:
Amber
Scent Type:
Spicy, warm, balsamic, sweet, floral, citrus, aromatic
Notes:
Opium opens with citrus and floral top notes which quickly fade into heart notes of myrrh and jasmine before blending into the intense woody amber base notes of patchouli, amber, vanilla and opoponax.
Suggested Use
For a long-lasting fragrance that you can carry throughout the day and to minimize the need for reapplying, focus on your pulse points behind your ears, at the base of your neck and on your wrists as well as warmer areas of the body, such as behind the knees and inside the elbow. These are the best places to apply your fragrance since the scent intensifies by the warmth of your body.

I would buy this product for a friend
I cannot really comment on this perfume, because I bought it as a gift for a friend, whose signature fragrance it is. I ordered it specially for her since it is no longer available in our country. I do know the perfume, but it is certainly not my kind of fragrance, it is too heavy for me.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Happy to find it
I used to wear this all of the time. Would always get compliments. Hadn't seen an acquaintance for years, but when we eventually ran into each other she told me she remembered how good I smelled. Hadn't expected that to be how I was remembered! I stopped wearing this when it became difficult to find the original scent & too costly when I could. I was thrilled to see the availability, size, & authenticity of this item in an online ad. I'm so glad it was real. Thank you for reuniting me with the fragrance that identifies me!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Long lasting luxury
