opium, 26 Feb. 2013

It was adverised as the normal Opium, but when I received it I found it was some light weight version that you have to spray on twice as much to get any kind of scent. I am a regular Opium user and this is not my normal Opium.

Is it genuine?, 19 May 2013

I'm not 100% sure that this is the genuine article. I sprayed some my original one on my left wrist and some of the this one on my right wrist, waited five minutes, then sniffed. They didn't smell identical (and I do have a very good nose after 22 years in the wine trade!)It's not so different that it's unpleasant at all, so if it IS a copy, it's a pretty good one and OK for daytime. But if I'm going out anywhere, I use my original one. I'm not sure I'd buy my perfume off the internet again unless I was VERY sure of the seller, as there are so many fakes around (even if some of them are pretty good!)

Not as good as the original., 19 Mar. 2013

bought this for my Mother who had commented on my own "Opium" when I wore it. This is ok for the money,certainly not as "Strong" as the one I have but I guess you get what you pay for?
