What does Pride Intense smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so that reading is tentative. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine, suiting men and women alike.

It opens with pink pepper, ginger and bergamot, a spicy start with a touch of freshness. In the heart, clary sage and patchouli lay down a woody base. Vanilla, amber and musk take over in the base, turning the scent sweeter and softly powdery. Jean Paul Gaultier Gaultier² and Comptoir Sud Pacifique Vanille Ambre have a close profile.
