What does Mercedes-Benz Man Intense smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so those ratings are tentative. Voters pick it mostly for daily wear and leisure, with sport and business close behind; night and evening come further back.

The notes read as a single whole rather than in stages: ambrette seed, geranium and ambrox frame the dry woodiness of oakmoss and patchouli with a clean edge. The accords lean fresh, citrus and aquatic, with fruity and sweet touches balanced by spicy, woody and resinous sides. Its profile is close to Mercedes-Benz Man and Dior Sauvage (Eau de Toilette).
