What does Dark Door Intense smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring trailing behind. It is chosen most for evenings and nights out, though it also finds a place in daily wear and at the office. Voters lean clearly towards a masculine character.

It opens with lavender. In the heart, Ambrette seed, pear and iris take over: the pear brings sweetness while the iris keeps things powdery and soft. Virginia cedar and vetiver settle underneath as a dry, woody base. The Dua Brand Intense Homme and Emir Homme Intense have a close profile.
