What does Now Intense smell like?
Tangerine, cucumber and watermelon give the top a cool, slightly sweet start. In the heart, sage and basil add a spicy, green edge. The base of cedar, sandalwood and leather pulls the scent towards wood, while the synthetic and floral accords stay behind the freshness.
Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough picture. Its value for money is rated high. The masculine, fresh build leans towards everyday wear. Fendi Fan di Fendi pour Homme Acqua and Versace Blue Jeans have a close profile.
