I really want to like this. I've tried both the EDP and the EDT and both are quite pungent. I like a bold oriental, but these just smell like a cologne an old man would wear. Not even a...

Yes, yes, yes...I'll definitely buy Opium over and over again if asked! This is in fact my first real fine fragrance that I'd purchased, which I think was somewhere in the early 80's and gosh!...

I want to update an older review of mine from four years ago since Opium has a new bottle, and seems reformulated for a new generation. Opium has been around since 1977, and in 77' it was unique...

Wholly unique, fabulous creation that smells like nothing else in the women's perfume department. I didn't grow up smelling Opium everywhere I went, so I've only experienced it in the here and now,...

Old spice for ladies! Don't get me wrong, I don't find old spice offensive, just dated, and I'm sure there are some fellas out there who can still pull it off. Same here. The strong cinnamon in...

To me this fragrance just screams sex. When I wear it, mostly in the fall and winter maybe early spring when its still very cool, I just feel like I have on naughty lingerie under my work clothes....

Opium is confident and takes no prisoners; so is the woman who wears it. From the reviews here, you love Opium or you hate it. I wear it Fall and Winter, almost always in the evening. This...

Although this is not my personal style for fragrances- I can appreciate a full bodied spicy oriental perfume for a number of reasons. For one, it commands attention (in a good way when worn by the...

I've been wearing this scent since I was 16 (I'm 40). I've tried lots of other heady scents but I always have a bottle of this. Perfume smells very different on different people and it suits some...

The worst thing about Opium is the bottle. It screams trashy but the scent is quite nice. It's really spicy and bohemian. I like it but it's not my favourite. I think that yves st lauren needs to...

Wear it in the winter. Apply lightly. Explore the different forms, not just the liquid perfume. Don't take it too seriously. Enjoy!

this perfume makes me want to gag. It was given to me as a gift a couple of years ago and the smell is so strong and putrid that I was ready to throw up. It is definitely not for me.

I only clicked "would not repurchase" because, sadly, I cannot wear Opium successfully, as much as I love it in the bottle. There is an inescapable fecal note that emerges on my skin, runing the...

This ain't Laurie Partridge's 70's flower child fragrance, that's for sure. Opium is purely bad-gal-gone-even-badder! It beckons from the wearer seductively as as a snake wrapped in satin. Opium =...

With all due respect, Opium really should have been packaged in much smaller bottles or even rollerball vials. It probably would have prevented the overkill so many of us had to suffer throughout...
