What does La Nuit de L'Homme L'Intense smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, spring comes second, and summer gets very few votes. It leans towards night out and evening wear, though it also finds a place at work and for daily use. It reads masculine, and many voters also call it modern.

It opens with violet leaf and orris concrete, giving a floral, powdery feel. Patchouli then lays a woody base, while tonka bean and vanilla sweeten it into a gourmand, oriental warmth. A spicy edge keeps the sweetness in check.
