Yves Saint Laurent 2009 EDT
Opium 2009
Yves Saint Laurent Opium 2009 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009, created by Antoine Maisondieu. Opium 2009 opens with Bergamot, Lily Of The Valley, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Carnation, and Myrrh, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Yves Saint Laurent's Opium 2009 carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.
This isn't your Nanna's Opium, but it still packs a punch for those who love a full-bodied oriental. Expect diviseness; some find it a gorgeous, nuanced beast, while others smell bug spray and regret. Not for sugar-sweet scent lovers.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
Its strong sillage and longevity, even for an EDT, make it less suitable for the office unless managed carefully. However, its sensual and sophisticated amber-oriental character is perfect for dates and evening events, embodying confidence without being overly casual.
