Blossom Perfumery 137 Opiem For Him is an Eau de Parfum. 137 Opiem For Him opens with Star Anise and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Pepper and Ginger, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vanilla, and Tolu Balsam. Blossom Perfumery's 137 Opiem For Him carries an Acquired verdict, a spicy-led wear.

No. 137 echoes YSL Opium pour Homme's spicy blackcurrant-anise-to-vanilla-tolu arc, but it lacks the original's incense-heavy depth, so the drydown reads sweeter and simpler where the real thing gets darker and more resinous.

About

Blossom Perfumery's No. 137 follows the spicy-oriental template of Yves Saint Laurent's Opium pour Homme: a blackcurrant and star anise opening, a warm peppery-ginger heart, and a tolu balsam-cedar-vanilla base. The fruity-spicy top notes land close to the original and the overall oriental warmth is recognisable from the first spray. It falls short in the base - Opium pour Homme is known for a dense, incense-laced richness that darkens as it wears, while this version stays lighter and sweeter, settling into a simple vanilla-cedar finish rather than building complexity. A wearable, budget-friendly nod to the mood without the theatrical depth of the original.
