Yves Saint Laurent L'Homme Parfum Intense is a Parfum launched in 2013, created by Dominique Ropion and Anne Flipo. L'Homme Parfum Intense opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Violet Leaf, and Artemisia, and dries down to a base of Suede, Woody, Leather, and Cedar. Yves Saint Laurent's L'Homme Parfum Intense carries a Favourite verdict, a balsamic-led wear.

This one's a discontinued charmer, loved for its sexy sweetness but widely criticised for its frustratingly poor performance as a "Parfum Intense." If you can get past the vanishing act, it's considered liquid gold by its devoted fans, who mourn its loss and hoard their bottles for special occasions.

About

L'Homme Parfum Intense opens with a bright, peppery zest of lemon and bergamot before settling into a sophisticated heart of orange blossom and violet leaf. The real depth emerges with a warm, sensual amber base, intertwined with soft leathers, suede, and creamy benzoin, creating a smooth yet woody dry-down with an intriguing animalic edge that's both sweet and refined.
