Estée Lauder Intuition is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Alberto Morillas. Intuition opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, Orange, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Rhododendron, Rose, Gardenia, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Amber. Estée Lauder's Intuition carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Intuition is a seriously divisive scent. Some find it a bright, sunny amber delight, others get sharp, bitter grapefruit and even a petrol-like weirdness. Definitely not a safe blind buy, but if it works with your chemistry, you're in for a unique, sophisticated treat.

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.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

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

This scent bursts open with a vibrant, zesty hit of fresh grapefruit and mandarin, underscored by crisp green notes. As it settles, a sophisticated bouquet of gardenia and rose emerges, softened by the subtle sweetness of freesia. The dry-down is a warm, enveloping amber, gently fused with woody undertones, creating a smooth and elegant finish that lingers beautifully.
