Opium by Yves Saint Laurent 1.6oz Eau De Toilette Spray

Pros: Richly sensual fragrance
Cons: Pricey

Long ago during the summer of our youth, Himself returned from a business trip with a gift that changed my life forever: He presented me with my first bottle of Opium. Since that time, I've never truly been the same. I still dabble occasionally ...

Pros: Main scent acceptable.
Cons: Holding company tests on animals, harsh initial smell, doesn't last long.

Last week I discovered that my great Aunt Norah had died, at the age of ninety one. My emotions with her passing have been rather limited, as I had also only met her perhaps a dozen times in my life, and not at all over the past twenty years. ...

Pros: Lasts all day! The fragrance is exotic and makes you feel sexy.
Cons: It's pricey but hey we need to treat ourselves sometimes!

I'm so excited ! I have the opportunity to write an epinion on my All time, favorite perfume OK if you've read any of my other epinions you've probably gotten the idea that I'm a little different. Not that I'm from mars or anything but i.e.; ...

Pros: Everything! readily available, an unforgettable fragrance
Cons: Can be pricey sometimes.

Okay folks we all know that there's scents you wear for him, there's scents that make you feel good, there's the power scent you wear when you want to make a statement, there's even a fun scent you wear. THEN there's that ONE scent that will make you follow strange people down the street to find out what it is and then when you have it you'll sit home and smell yourself. Opium is that scent.

I was sixteen when I first smelled Opium I asked for it from my mom but got Sweet honesty instead. No i'm not bitter. I love spicy scents. Opium is spicy and warm. It makes you feel exotic, expensive, decadent and like a torrid romance heroine that devastates the hero and leaves her unforgettable scent on him and everything around him.
If you love spicy, and exotic and if you have a bright personality Opium is for you.

Pros: A classic...it draws you in...yummy scent
Cons: It's a little rich for summertime

YSL Opium is one of the great perfume classics. It's a web that draws you in...(Like an Opium Den?)
I can spray it on in the morning, and get compliments at the end of the day. When I undress, my clothes have that divine scent imbued in them.
It's a unique scent. As a perfumeholic, I have so many scents, but this is one that will haunt you and those around you forever. I have worn it on and off for 20 years, and still never tire of it. Since it's rather heady, I mainly use it in cold months, as it's a little rich for summer!
Hope this helps!

Pros: Scentual
Cons: none

I have been wearing this perfume for 25 years now. It's me. It's who I am. It's a part of me. Even days I don't wear it, people know it because it's such a part of my clothes that the scent lingers.

It's long lasting, both as a scent and a memory. It's classic, and not seasonal. It's every day and it's special events. Nothing comes close to matching this.

Every year I go to the store looking for something different, and every year I walk out with something else ... along with another bottle of Opium. I have too many bottles of other things that never get used, since I always return to the Opium.

There's no escaping it.

Pros: Rich sumptuous woody spicy velvety
Cons: Not to everyone's taste

This is a classic in men's fragrances. Complex, rich, deep, silky, seductive. It's a scent that was very intoxicating when I first smelt it on one of my colleagues. There is a sweetness to it that is lush and opulent without being overpowering or sickly.

I'm hooked on this one, and I get comment after comment from women saying it smells sexy and men wanting to know what it is saying it's very nice.

I've never quite understood why it isn't more widely popular, but then that may not be such a bad thing. I'd hate to see the day again like we did a few years ago when every guy and his dog were wearing CK Eternity.
