Yves Saint Laurent Opium
- Designed by Yves Saint Laurent
- Popular Opium fragrance
- 90ml
Yves Saint Laurent’s Opium scent has remained a popular fragrance for all women who love sophisticated and sensuous perfumes. From its beginnings in the 1960s, Yves Saint Laurent has been associated with fashionable and luxury French couture that has spanned the decades and is still cherished by the modern woman today.
It carefully mixes the light tones of Casablanca Lily, Gardenia and mandarin with the warmer scents of wood, peach, rose and incense to give it that intoxicating luxury smell.
To create depth to this scent Yves Saint Laurent has added amber, tobacco and hookah resulting in the iconic scent of Opium. This all comes presented in the iconic and French designed bottle that glows a burnt amber. The spray dispense is a rich gold and each bottle holds 90ml of luxury Eau de Toilet.
I have several perfumes that I wear through the week but Opium is the only one that brings me compliments every single time I wear it. I still wear it when I want to feel sexy and pretty and bring back lots of memories of being a teen!
Yve Saint Laurent has designed a real classic with Opium, it was the first ‘grownup’ scent I ever owned. So I was delighted to see it was available here! It has a luxurious, heady scent and is recognised by many when they smell it, without even knowing what it is. Even the bottle itself is instantly recognisable – every woman secretly wishes she had a bottle of Opium. It is the epitome of sex appeal in a bottle. Even though it’s reportedly an evening perfume, who among us has not sneaked a dab onto their wrist, just for that secret waft of elegance in the daytime? Opium is truly timeless!
