Cologne Intense is an aromatic, citrus, earthy scent created for Men in 2015 by perfumer Luca Maffei.
Review
This scent is classy, refined, and crisp. It blends citruses with Incense, Tea, and Lavender, creating a fresh, warm, and aromatic scent that is easy to wear. It boasts a casual elegance that can be worn for any occasion, any time or place, and any season. It has the carefree lightness of a Cologne, but comes in the Eau de Parfum form, and lasts all day. It has been compared to Zino Davidoff.
Inspiration
Cologne Intense captures the refreshingly earthy essence of a sunny morning after a rainy evening. This scent captures the essence of a gentleman’s cologne from yester-year, paying homage to Jean Marie Farina’s original 1709 creation, while adding a modern twist for today’s wearer.
Notes
A bright citrus blend of Bergamot, Lemon, Petitgrain, and Neroli are blended with the crisp, earthy nuances of Tarragon and Lavender. Superessences of Incense and Mate are softened just a touch with Jasmine Absolute, as a warm, earthy base sets in. Patchouli, Amber and leathery Labdanum add depth to this light composition, while Oakmoss and Musk heighten the smoky and spicy nuances above.
