Uomo Intense

“Not terribly original and very similar to Dior Homme Intense or YSL La'Nuit de l'Home. Having said that, this is probably my everyday scent in the winter and I like it slightly better than the other two. it is dark enough to satisfy me and safe enough I wear it to the office in the winter/fall and at night even in the spring. Nice longevity. I have read it is discontinued but I still see it in stores.”

“I have an old batch (22TNOYJ) (pre-neck choker)My absolute favorite winter scent. It's extremely addictive, sexy, dark, rich, masculine, rough and smooth at the same time. It really blends well with my own body chemistry. I get unsolicited compliments quite often with this one. I prefer Valentino Uomo Intense to Dior Homme Intense or Givenchy Gentleman EDP. It performs very well, very good projection and sillage for hours and hours.”

“#445 in my "Tour de Fragrance"I get what smells like a blast of papyrus in the opening, almost like opening a pack of copier paper, and it doesn't disappear in the dry down. I realize it's the combination of iris, violet and leather tricking my senses, but it characterizes this scent throughout for me. Not offensive at all, but not attractive either. Not something I'll reach for with any regularity or will buy again. Born in Roma Intense, Born in Roma Yellow Dream. Born in Roma Coral Fantasy, all much more interesting. I'll see how people react to this, but it's probably getting donated.”
