Opium pour Homme Eau d'Orient

Description

A sparkling opening of citrus uniting with star anise, ‘like a summer shiver’. The heart reveals the scent’s spicy character with a vibrantly exotic burst of pepper, nutmeg and ginger. Then the fragrance evolves towards a ‘brilliant and almost casual’ dry-down composed of wood and Moroccan amber essences.
