Carthusia Intenso di Ginestra is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Antoine Lie and Luca Maffei. Intenso di Ginestra opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Petitgrain, and Neroli, settles into a heart of Broom, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Carthusia's Intenso di Ginestra carries an Acquired verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of frag. Some find the jasmine overwhelming and a bit too 'vintage', leaning into granny territory. Others rave about its unique floral composition, calling it 'special' and a must-have for summer. Definitely not a blind buy.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on white floral, citrus and yellow floral - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

With moderate sillage and longevity, this could work for the office if applied lightly, though its strong white floral character might be too much for some. It truly shines in casual and date settings, particularly during summer, but its 'vintage' leanings might not suit all formal occasions.

About

Opens with a bright, zesty burst of neroli, petitgrain, and lemon, quickly giving way to a rich bouquet of narcotic white florals, dominated by jasmine and a honeyed broom note. The dry down mellows into a creamy blend of vanilla and musk, with a touch of grounding sandalwood. It’s a floral journey with a citrus kick.
