Opium Fraicheur d'Orient by Yves Saint Laurent was launched in 1998, bringing a fresh take on the brand's iconic oriental theme. This fragrance opens with a vibrant clash of warm and fresh spices, cinnamon leading the charge alongside citrus notes that add an invigorating edge. The heart introduces soft florals that balance the spiciness before settling into a rich amber and woody base. The composition is both dynamic and comforting, capturing the essence of Yves Saint Laurent's legacy of elegance.

Application Tips
For best effect, apply this fragrance to pulse points. The spiciness in the top notes is immediate but fades within an hour, so it's better suited for daytime wear when you want a fresh yet warm presence.
