About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
This 2017 men's edition of Yves Saint Laurent Opium is a woody aromatic built on a bright, bracing opening. Aldehydes and bergamot lead, sharpened by ginger, lemon, and mint for a sparkling, almost effervescent citrus lift. The heart turns greener and subtly fruity: apple, violet leaf, and pineapple meet sage and geranium, creating a crisp, aromatic tension that keeps the composition lively without sweetness. The base settles into a resinous, smoky finish of ambergris, musk, cedar, vetiver, balsam fir, and incense, giving the fragrance a dry, grounded depth that lingers close to the skin.
Collectors who appreciate fresh spicy and aromatic profiles will find this Opium flanker a versatile daily wear, especially in spring and summer. Its green, citrus-forward character suits office settings and casual daytime outings, while the incense and fir in the base add enough gravity for evening wear. If you enjoy classic woody aromatics with a modern, clean edge, this is a worthy addition to a rotation. The 2017 version is discontinued, so availability is limited; check batch codes and bottle condition before buying.
