I like this perfume. It is lighter and softer, than classical Opium. There is no clove in the formula - which makes this scent more pleasant for me, but still it is quite spicy. Tangerine adds light freshness in the opening - I would wear it even in summer.
For me the only problem with the bottle - it is too big! I prefer to have smaller volumes - 30-50 ml.

I'm Chinese, and this bottle...does look cheap. YSL didn't put much thought into it or they just misunderstood everything?

I haven't tried this, but the composition seems fresh. Well actually I haven't seen this one in stores here. Maybe it's not well received...

I agree with Marianne, the original Opium is an extremely heavy scent and all these latest inspirations of the Orient by YSL are softer and less cloying. I believe the bottle design is and should be embraced by the Chinese because of its clean simplicity. Especially after the devastating exposure of all the environmental issues! Less is sometimes better and more effective for some people. A nice effort from YSL I think.

I am Austrian, but my first impression also was that the bottle looks cheap. Like plastic or some kind of imitation. Anyway, in my opinion, the scent is what counts. And I find the original Opium far too heavy. Maybe this special edition is lighter???

I always adore YSL's design but this time...I know it's off-topic but I can't help but express my shock.

I know most westen people would love this bottle design, but in Chinese' eyes, it has a cheap feeling, sth inferior (hope this won't offend anyone.)

I send the bottle pic to my friends(all chinese), and their reaction were all the same: This is from YSL? Can't believe! Don't kid me!

Maybe this is what we called "culture shock".
