Just got my new bottle of Chanel Egoiste (traded for it blind). My first impression upon spraying was "OPIUM." My first thought was that this smells similar to Opium PH (edt) although they share only the vanilla note in the base. I did not spray it on my skin yet because I am wearing FDM today, I sprayed it on a card. Am I crazy to make this association?
