Not the same.
Wore this scent back when it first came out. ( 80's ? ) It was lovely, spicy and exotic but now something has changed. If you don't mind smelling like your grandma then this is for you. Returned immediately.

Spicy, Bold and Warm
I’ve been wearing the OG Opium for over 37 years. It’s still as sexy and provocative from their initial launch. The scent is bold, warm, spicy, and complex that lingers all day. It’s not over powering but has a presence that people will notice and compliment. I’ve tried to change my perfume so many times but go back the the OG Opium every time. I guess, it’s now just part of me.
