Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

The honeyed florals and deep amber-patchouli base are lush and enveloping, making this a standout for cooler fall and winter nights, yet its luminous orange blossom keeps it wearable in spring. It's too rich and intense for most summer days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its pronounced sweetness and sillage make it best for romantic nights or elegant events, while its opulence can overwhelm in close quarters like offices or sporty settings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense envelops you in a luminous swirl of orange blossom and opulent honey, softened by voluptuous ylang-ylang and rose. As the fragrance settles, amber and patchouli emerge, infusing the composition with rich, resinous depth and a hint of animalic allure. The result is a golden, syrupy floral that feels both regal and deeply sensual, shimmering with elegance and leaving a memorable, enveloping trail. Perfect for evenings when you want to radiate confidence and warmth.
