False shipping costs

I paid extra to expedite my purchase to be here by Valentines Day. It was ordered on 2/11/26 - with a 2 day delivery (2/13/26). They didn't write the shipping ticket until Friday (2/13/26) and said "ooops - it will be there on Valentines Day"8 (2/14/26) - Then they said "Oooops - it will arrive on Monday (2/16/26) - I had to call Macy's and demand the "expedited" shipping charge be refunded - which is was. Very Disappointing.

Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint Laurent Opium is my mom’s favorite, so when I noticed it was on sale I just had to buy her some more. Spoil your parents while you have them because none of us are getting any younger 💕

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Opium Eau De Parfum Spray. We are sorry to hear that the current Opium Eau de Parfum did not meet your expectations. We know that for many, the original formula from 1977 is more than just a perfume—it’s an icon and a deeply personal memory. Fragrance regulations and the availability of certain natural raw materials have changed over the decades, requiring us to reformulate our classic scents to ensure they meet modern safety standards while staying as true as possible to their heritage. While the current version still features the signature notes of mandarin, jasmine, and patchouli, we understand that for a lover of the original, it may feel like a different experience. We value your loyalty to the Opium name and take your feedback seriously as we continue to honor the legacy of this legendary fragrance.

Won’t. Buy Again

I was so disappointed. I am being generous when I say there is a slight similarity to the original formula. However, it doesn’t last it isn’t deep or rich and I wish I hadn’t purchased it.

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Opium Eau De Parfum Spray. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience with this fragrance was a disappointing one, especially as a fan of the original composition. At YSL Beauty, we understand that scent is a deeply personal and often nostalgic experience. When we revisit or evolve a formula, our goal is to maintain the soul of the fragrance while introducing a new olfactory dimension. It is clear that, for you, the current version lacks the signature depth, richness, and longevity that you have come to love and expect from our house. We appreciate your loyalty to the original scent, and we take your comments regarding the performance and complexity of the current blend very seriously.
