About

Scandal Intense Eau de Parfum is a bold, contemporary gourmand that envelops the senses in a sultry embrace of lush ylang-ylang, creamy vanilla absolute, and spicy cardamom. The opening is a flash of warm spice leading straight into a heart of opulent florals, layered over a plush, almost edible base of vanilla and cream. Touches of synthetic musk and amber add modernity and lasting power, while the overall effect is intensely sweet, cozy, and deeply feminine. This fragrance radiates confidence and indulgence, making it perfect for nights out and cooler seasons.
