Opium Parfum
The opening declares itself immediately: plum-tinged spice erupting through jasmine and bergamot, sweet but never polite.

Bel Ami

Hermès · 1986
Bel Ami Hermès
Bel Ami opens with an austere wash of sage and citrus, the cardamom lending a faintly medicinal edge that feels more apothecary than cologne counter.
