What does Excellence Intense smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night-out wear lead the occasions, while summer comes last. Most voters read it as masculine.
It opens with aniseed, Sichuan pepper, cardamom and mandarin orange, a sharp, spicy freshness. Orange blossom, iris, violet and marine notes then add a soft floral touch. In the base, vanilla, amber and tonka bean settle into a sweet, gourmand, oriental warmth. Jaguar Excellence and Zara Vanilla Vibration have a close profile.
