What wearers say
“The top note has no difference with the non-intense version. Longevity wise, I'd say 6 hours (with the first 3 hours being the peak). Sillage and projection is mediocre, not the best but you get what you pay for. It has more of a vanilla dry down unlike the original one that only has a cinnamon-y scent to it. Good perfume and worth the price if you ask me.”
“Just bought a bottle. I have the original edt and that one is great for the price but lacks a punch. The difference with this intense version is that the opening is very sweet and gourmand but in a very nice way. Very good for the winter season. And the price is great. The original edt is spicier and a bit fresher. I really like this new Zara desert line. Bottle looks great.”
“Perfect sweet-warm-spicy fragrance for the price tag. Opening strong with sweet vanilla-cocoa with hints of amber. Creates a masculine sense with incsense, cedar and resins. Lightened up with fresh bitter orange and bergamot to provide balance. Well-crafted, totally worth the price if you are into cozy sweet scents.”
