Dior Homme Intense by Dior is iris first and last: soft, powdery and cool, with an earthy edge. Lavender opens it briefly, clean and aromatic. Then the iris settles in, dusted with a violet-like powder, while ambrette adds a musky warmth and pear a faint, ripe sweetness. The base turns drier, with Virginia cedar and vetiver giving it a woody finish. It launched in 2011 and is mostly worn by men who like their scent refined rather than loud. Voters reach for it in autumn and winter, at night, and it suits an evening out. Most wearers vote it long-lasting. On sillage, the vote leans strong. A 3ml decant lets you wear it through a few cold evenings before you commit to the bottle.
