What does Apex Eau Intense smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, and it also works in fall. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, and most voters read it as masculine and modern.
The top is bright with mint, clary sage, lemon and lavender, a crisp citrus freshness. Honey pomelo and rose oxide in the heart add a soft, fruity touch. The base of violet leaf, ambroxan, cedarwood and patchouli gives a woody, lightly spicy footing, and the overall feel stays clean and synthetic. Calvin Klein Contradiction for Men and The Dua Brand Predator Intense have a close profile.
