It was the year 1977, disco music was in full effect as was feathered hair and rayon, the year I was born and also the year Yves Saint Laurent introduced the fragrance Opium. At the time the name itself, Opium, garnered much attention because of the word associations with the drug Opium. Regardless of the fragrance's name this exotic spicy blend quickly became a best seller. Fast-foward since its last ad campaign a decade ago, British actress Emily Blunt, is the new face behind the iconic Opium fragrance. Before the actual ad campaign hits world-wide on December 4th 2011 here are a few behind-the-scene images.
