What does The Game Intense smell like?

Gin fizz comes first, then iris and patchouli pull the scent in a powdery, woody direction. Labdanum absolute and ebony settle underneath, while the fruity, gourmand sweetness leaves a smoky, oriental trail.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it suits evenings and nights out best. It reads masculine. Lolita Lempicka Eau de Minuit and Roberto Cavalli Nero Assoluto have a close profile.
