    I desperately wanted to love this perfume when it came out, and yes, I did buy a bottle and spritz away like mad. Unfortunately Opium does not love me. While on the right person this can smell...

    Ah! The Queen of Perfumes! Never mind how many scents I try, I always have this one at hand. Opium is not for everyone. This is for a WOMAN, self-assured and assertive. It is right up there in...

    I know a lot of reviewers may not like this, but I love the 'older' and 'true' scents. Lots of the teen and young-20 folks prefer floral or fruiter scents, but let me say I get more comments from...

    This is one of a few scents that I just can't tolerate - on myself or on someone near me. It's very unique and instantly recognizable. It's heavy, medicinal, and musty. For me it's like when you...

    I agree that OOB this smells terrible but you have to spray it on to know what it smells like. On me it takes about an hour to turn into the most wonderful scent! You have to be careful also not...

    I love to wear this during the Canadian winter. This fragrance has a history for me, it is what my stepmother wore while I grew up, and we just despised each other. But despite the negative...

    This scent is intoxicating. It is one of the only perfumes that lasts on my skin. It is powdery and sweet yet the spicy quality makes sure it does not smell flowery or obnoxious. I have heard Opium...

    Again, this fragrance is all about chemistry. I love the way it smells on me, but I have smelled others with it on, and it does dry down to a powdery smell. It just smells spicy on me all day...

    Another darn spicey oriental...although one of the original mass market ones. Smells interesting in the bottle, but on my skin, as all orientals, it's loud and obnoxious. Makes me a bit nauseous as...

    I'd say it stinks and smells like an old woman applied too much powder.

    It is one of the greatest ever. Strong, yes. Use it in elegant, small doses. Stick with the parfum. notice even the edt and edp are not sold in "vat" size. Otherwise-it's a dream.

    I distinctly remember the notoriety surrounding the Opium launch when I was a girl. Two or three years after that, I was around 9 or 10 years old and sitting on the floor of a friends bedroom with...

    I love "Opium", it's one of those classy, grown-up perfumes. It's very oriental though, so you either love it or you hate it. I'd never tried it till I got a sample at a recent perfume sale and...

    Great oriental. Fragrant woods, resins and spices make this a very WITCHY fragrance. It brings to mind Egypt, Morocco - it does soften as you wear it. If you find you cannot pull off the...
