What does Paradoxe Intense smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters recommend autumn, spring and winter, and it is picked mostly for nights out and evenings. Voters mostly call its character feminine and modern.

It opens bright with bitter orange bud, Calabrian bergamot and pear. In the heart, moss, Moroccan neroli and jasmine add a soft floral note. The base of vanilla, Moxalone®, Serenolide and Ambrofix settles it into a sweet, powdery finish. Its profile is close to Justin Bieber Someday (Eau de Parfum) and Ulric de Varens UDV pour Elle.
