Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Opium Pour Homme EDP
A legendary, opulent elixir from a bygone era that still commands absolute adoration. It's a rich, spicy, semi-gourmand masterpiece, but buyer beware - the vintage EDP is the real star here; newer versions have dampened its beastly magic.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Opium Pour Homme EDT
A divisive yet beloved 90s powerhouse that refuses to be forgotten. While some find modern formulations a shadow of their former selves, Opium Pour Homme remains a confident oriental spicy scent, delivering an old-school vibe that still captivates many.

Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
