Kate Spade New York Sparkle Eau de Parfum Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Sparkle Eau de Parfum Intense opens with Pink Pepper and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Hawthorn and Peony, and dries down to a base of Crème Brûlée, Cedar, and Vanilla. Kate Spade New York's Sparkle Eau de Parfum Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

A richer, gourmand-leaning flanker of Kate Spade Sparkle, built on the same black currant and peony frame but sweetened with a heavier vanilla creme brulee drydown. Reads warmer and longer-lasting than the original, aimed squarely at evening wear.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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:
Fall Winter

The dense vanilla creme brulee and cedar base is a cold-weather gourmand, though the blackcurrant and peony opening keeps it wearable into early autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Marketed explicitly as a night-out scent; the sweet, intense gourmand drydown is better suited to dates and evening events than daytime office wear.

About

Sparkle Eau de Parfum Intense is a 2023 flanker of the 2022 Kate Spade New York Sparkle, intensifying the original's fruity-floral idea with a heavier gourmand base. It opens with blackcurrant cosmopolitan and pink peppercorn, moves into a purple peony and hawthorn heart, and settles into a warm vanilla creme brulee and cedarwood drydown. The brand markets it as the shimmer of a New York night out, with the sweet vanilla trail lasting well into the evening. It is sold in the same rounded blue-and-gold bottle as the original Sparkle, distinguished by the Intense line's darker fill and deeper cap band, and is available in multiple sizes including a gift set with matching body lotion.
