The Legacy of YSL Opium

When Yves Saint Laurent launched Opium in 1977, it created an immediate sensation, breaking conventions and establishing a new standard for oriental fragrances with its unapologetic sensuality and exotic character.

YSL’s controversial naming and marketing cemented Opium’s place in perfume history, creating not just a fragrance but a cultural phenomenon that continues to fascinate and inspire perfume lovers worldwide.

The distinctive bottle, inspired by Chinese and Japanese aesthetics, reflects the exotic inspiration behind this oriental perfume, making it as much a collector’s item as a masterpiece of modern perfumery. ๐Ÿฎ

FAQ: How does Opium EDT compare to the modern interpretations?

YSL Opium EDT distinguishes itself from modern reinterpretations through its authenticity and bold character. While newer versions may cater to contemporary tastes, the original Opium maintains the rich, spicy intensity that made it revolutionary.

The EDT version offers the perfect balance of the iconic formulaโ€”lighter than the parfum but still delivering the full Opium experience with its distinctive blend of spices, incense, and amber that creates an unmistakable signature.

Unlike many modern orientals that prioritize sweetness, Opium EDT embraces its complex, multifaceted character with a sophisticated development that reveals new facets throughout wear, creating a truly timeless experience.

Fragrance connoisseurs particularly value its historical significance and extraordinary composition. The myrrh and incense notes combined with rich spices create a truly distinctive designer fragrance that has maintained its allure despite changing trends. For the woman who appreciates perfume as art and history, Opium represents an essential addition to any collection, a fragrance that continues to inspire and captivate decades after its creation. ๐ŸŒน

Application method

How to Apply Perfume & Best Spots for Long-Lasting Scent

ย 
1- How to Apply Perfume Correctly:

  • ย Spray from the right distance โ€“ Hold the bottle 10-15 cm away from your skin for an even distribution.
  • Do not rub your wrists together โ€“ This breaks down fragrance molecules and reduces longevity.
  • ย Apply on clean, moisturized skin โ€“ Use an unscented moisturizer before spraying to help the scent last longer.
  • ย Spray after a shower โ€“ Open pores absorb the fragrance better, enhancing its longevity.

Best Perfume Application Points:

Pulse points (These emit heat, which enhances scent diffusion):

Wrists
Behind the ears
Neck
Inside elbows
Behind the knees

These are water-based solutions that may contain certain vitamins.

  • Additional spots for a subtle touch:
  • Hair โ€“ Use a hair mist or spray on a brush before running it through your hair.
  • Clothes โ€“ Fabrics hold perfume for longer, but avoid delicate materials like silk.

Makeup for special events: shine uniquely!

A special day requires a special look, and bright makeup will be its highlight. Regardless of whether it is a wedding, a corporate event, or a romantic dinner, the right makeup will help you feel confident and unforgettable. An effective skincare routine starts with an effectiveย cleansingย routine. Far from being the overly aggressive detergents of yesteryear, todayโ€™s cleansers often have gentle, mild formulas that work well with the specific needs of different skin types, removing impurities and make-up residue without stripping the skin of its natural oils.

Make-up should harmonize with your outfit, hairstyle and accessories.

If youโ€™ve been followingย Care to Beautyย for a while, you that our specialty is French pharmacy skincare. These were the first brands we worked with and we continue to identify with their ethosโ€“for us, thereโ€™s nothing better than gentle skincare products that focus on resolving skin concerns without disrupting the skin barrier.

If youโ€™re looking to replenish your skincare stash with French pharmacy products at discounted prices, we have offers of up to 50%โ€“time to stock up on iconic moisturizers likeย Avenge Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream, or rich lip balms likeย NUKE Rave de Miel Honey Lip Balm Ultra Nourishing and Repairing.

Here atย Care to Beauty, weโ€™re sunscreen evangelists: if you use nothing else in your daily skincare routine, use sunscreen. Sunscreen has multiple benefits, ranging from the cosmetic (it helps prevent photoaging and some forms of dark spots and hyperpigmentation) to the health-related (itโ€™s our first line of defense against skin cancer). Between mineral and chemical sunscreens, tinted or untinted, in milky or creamy textures, or even gel-like consistencies, thereโ€™s a world of sunscreen options out there, so we know thereโ€™s one for you.
