What does Dior Homme Intense (2011) smell like?

Florentine iris absolute leads the opening, while Ecuadorian ambrette seed in the heart softens it into something creamy. Virginia cedar underneath adds a woody line that balances the sweetness. The overall impression is gourmand and oriental, with a touch of spice.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and lean towards evenings and nights out. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most see it as masculine and classic. Carner Rima XI and Givenchy Gentleman Givenchy Réserve Privée have a close profile.
