Perfume Parlour Steamy Poppy For Women is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Steamy Poppy For Women opens with Mandarin and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Woody and Vanilla. Perfume Parlour's Steamy Poppy For Women carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Steamy Poppy interprets YSL's Opium Vapeurs - that juicy mandarin-and-pink-pepper opening drifting into orange blossom, jasmine and soft vanilla. The dupe captures the gentle, powdery oriental-floral character but reads flatter, with shorter longevity than the already-light original.

About

Steamy Poppy chases YSL's Opium Vapeurs, the airy, modern reimagining of the classic Opium. It opens fresh and lively with juicy mandarin lifted by sparkling pink pepper, before a sensual heart of orange blossom and Sambac jasmine adds a soft, powdery floralcy. A gentle vanilla and light woods round out the base for an intimate, skin-close warmth. As a budget version it tracks the original's caressing, luminous-oriental character well, though it renders the florals flatter and the vanilla simpler, losing some of the spiced depth. Performance is modest - the original itself is on the lighter side - so it sits close and fades sooner than a full oriental. A pretty, easy-to-wear feminine scent for evenings, dates and cooler days.
