(4.5/5 stars from 21 ratings)Price $45 |
Sale $43.98 |
If women, as per the classic ads for feminine Opium, are addicted to Yves Saint Laurent, gentlemen needed the counterbalancing fragrance to make them as appetising and irresistible to the other sex as the female version did to the ladies. Yves Saint Laurent didn't turn them down. While still head of his house, in 1995, he offered them a heady woody oriental reminiscent of the East and its men, not afraid to venture into aromatic dens of dubious reputation. Exotic ingredients such as Szechwan pepper for refreshing spiciness and vanilla orchid for a touch of unexpected swagger mix with tart black currants and austere cedarwood for a composition full of the intrigue of other lands. Devastantingly handsome, conspicuously alluring, mysteriously attracting, Opium pour Homme is a cologne intended for those who are addicted to the game of seduction!
Notes Top Note: Black Currant, Star Anise, Mandarin, Lavender Middle Note: Galanga, Geranium, Ginger, Pepper Base Note: Patchouli, Tolu Balsam, Atlas Cedar, Vanilla, Myrrhe

Review of Opium by Frank Rando
OPIUM is one of the top ten best Cologne for man in the market. Lasts for long time and is very pleasant, I wear every day and I strongly Recommend it. Perfume.com has the best price and service in the market

Review of Opium by Paul Krawczyk
The best perfume for men created by YSL (his remaining scents, however, also fill my top ten - eg. Live Jazz, Pour Homme, Homme). Even total strangers (and many men among them!) would ask me the name of my cologne when I'm wearing it! I've fallen in love with this perfume from the first ad I'd seen in Paris Match back in 1980s and my first encounter only confirmed what my intuition had predicted. Long-lasting, with superb finish, very oriental, elegantly sexy and refined but not too overwhelming. The Eau de parfum version is even better. Strongly recommended.

Review of Opium by Sage Slusher
I just placed my first order with you, though I have loved Opium for more years than I can remember. My husband and I always had to pay retail prices (which we couldn't afford) but I wore it anyway because we both loved it so much. Discovering your site and finding out I could get Opium at these bargain prices was a wonderful surprise. Every time I go out someone stops me to say I smell fabulous and asks what perfume I'm wearing and no matter how many times I hear that, it always makes my day! Opium is the PERFECT PERFUME for MY chemistry and I will always wear it! My husband buys me a bottle of the perfume every Christmas because he knows it will be a hit. It's even more special at holiday time because I wear the EDT on a daily basis. I haven't used anything except the EDT and EDP sprays and I am thrilled I can afford to try all the other Opium products now. Today I ordered a gift set and can't wait for it to arrive!

Review of Opium by Nik Papadopoulos
This is a definitely oriental perfume! It is strong (yet in a way that is not unpleasant) and lasts for long. When the day is over I can smell it on my clothes, it gives me such a great feeling. Because of the type of smell ( spicy-woody-oriental) I mostly wear it during Winter, especially during Christmas period, it's perfect. A must have, if you're into exotic-oriental fragrances and want to make a difference.

Review of Opium by Jim Weeks
I have worn Opium for several years. Hard to find in stores and outlets now. It's the only fragrance I have ever worn where complete female strangers will tell me "I smell nice!" My last two purchases have been from perfume.com so I get a great fragrance for me and the best price I have ever paid, including the 'won't be beat' outlets.
