Yves Saint Laurent Opium Pour Homme 1995 GCMS

This GCMS fragrance analysis of Opium pour Homme reveals the intricate architecture of Yves Saint Laurent's iconic oriental spicy masterpiece. Crafted in 1995 by master perfumer Jacques Cavallier, this groundbreaking composition served as a bold, opulent counterpart to the legendary feminine original. The scent artfully contrasts an exotic overture of star anise and black currant against a fiery heart of galangal and pepper, ultimately settling into an intoxicating base of bourbon vanilla, rich balsams, and cedar.
