Yves Saint Laurent Opium Collector's Edition 2014 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Opium Collector's Edition 2014 opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Yves Saint Laurent's Opium Collector's Edition 2014 carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This Collector's Edition of Opium is an acceptable, yet uninspired, modern take on a classic. It's a crowd-pleaser for those who find the original too intense, but it's not going to win over vintage purists.

With a more moderate projection than a full-on '80s powerhouse, this Opium flanker is versatile enough for an evening out or a smart casual event. It's less office-friendly due to its warmth and a touch too much presence for a professional setting, but it's certainly not a beast mode scent.

About

A citrusy opening of bergamot and mandarin quickly mellows into a floral heart of carnation and jasmine. The real star here is the warm, comforting base, where creamy vanilla and rich amber mingle with a hint of earthy vetiver, creating a smooth and slightly spicy trail.
