If you’re looking for a fragrance that embodies warmth in a bottle, Intensely is a great place to start. Launched in 2019, it has become a modern classic in the "sweet-spicy" gourmand category. It was created by the French master perfumer Cécile Matton & launched in 2019. Matton is the same nose behind the original SWY edt, and she crafted this flanker to be a deeper, more "intense" gourmand take on the DNA Intensely is an Amber Fougère. It’s thick, sweet, and leans heavily into "edible" territory without losing its masculine edge. With top notes ofPink Pepper, Juniper, and Violet Leaf. Which give a spicy, slightly fresh opening that lasts about 10 minutes. At the heart, Lavender, Sage, Toffee, and Cinnamon. This is where the magic happens. The Toffee note is the star here, it’s buttery, sugary, and perfectly balanced by the herbal sage. At the base it's finished off beautifully with Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Amber, and Suede. Creating a warm, cozy hug of a dry-down. The suede prevents it from becoming cloying by adding a smooth, masculine leather-lite finish. Performance I guess is where "Intensely" earns its name. I easily get 9hrs wear from this without overspraying. The projection is fairly strong for the first 3 hours. It leaves a heavy trail, people will definitely smell you from several feet away.Because of its heavy sweetness and heat, this is not a versatile everyday scent. Best suited for the colder months. Perfect for date nights, evening events, or outdoor winter gatherings. Stronger With You Intensely is a masterpiece of the gourmand genre. It takes the DNA of the original Stronger With You and cranks up the richness, making it deeper and more seductive. If you love scents like Viktor&Rolf Spicebomb Extreme or Azzaro Most Wanted, this is a mandatory addition to your collection. My Rating 9/10 Scent 3 Longevity 2.5 Sillage 2.5 Y/N 1
