Opium (1977, Yves Saint Laurent, Eau de Toilette)
There is no doubt about it: Opium —“ the sensation of 1977 (and not only because of its scent, but because of its controversial ad campaign) and then of the early 1980s—“ is one of those “love it or hate it” scents… although I have noticed that opinions can “mellow” …

Givenchy Amarige Eau de Toilette
The bottle of Givenchy Amarige Eau de Toilette is not appealing when compared to other bottle design for perfume. Indeed, I should call its bottle design fairly simple. Maybe it’s because it’s classic product from Givenchy and that’s why they want you to concentrate on the scent …

Flora by Gucci Gucci for women

5:40 PM in Madagascar by Kenzo
