OPIUM eau de toilette spray 50 ml

THE AIRIEST SIDE OF A TABOO SCENT Opium by Yves Saint Laurent is categorized as an "Eau de Toilette" within the oriental floral scent family specifically crafted for women. This version represents a reimagining of the initial fragrance, maintaining its core notes while providing a lighter, more refreshing twist that evokes a vibrant and youthful feel. Launched in 2009, this iteration honors the original debut of 1977, which was eventually taken off the market due to health concerns related to excessive levels of certain ingredients, as well as the depletion of Mysore sandalwood, a key component. Opium is recognized for its provocative floral blend—bold, captivating, and heady—solidifying its position as one of the most renowned fragrances for women throughout history. Even after forty years, it continues to emanate exclusivity and attracts a devoted audience. The scent opens with a unique blend of mandarin orange, peppery notes, cinnamon, and chili pepper, creating an energetic prelude to an enchanting floral heart composed of jasmine, carnation, ylang-ylang, and rose—an incredibly feminine bouquet with enticing allure. Its base is characterized by a subtle finish, enriched by benzoin, contrasting patchouli, and a hint of sweet vanilla. EAU DE TOILETTE. This formulation, labeled as Eau de Toilette, offers a noticeably lighter profile compared to its perfume counterpart. The aroma has been refined to prioritize finesse over intensity, steering clear of overwhelming olfactory experiences. IMAGINARY REALM. Opium invites wearers into an uncharted domain, where it emerges as a dazzling celestial body, radiating warmth and sparks of passion. This vibrant, explosive essence signifies allure and enigma. A TIMELESS TREASURE IN FRAGRANCE. This scent is hailed as a timeless classic in the perfume industry. Its iconic status persists, ensuring it remains at the forefront of sales, embodying an air of grace and refinement regardless of the years gone by.
