Dior Homme Intense

The "Gentleman’s Tuxedo." Dior Homme Intense (DHI) is a Woody Floral Musk that is famous for its heavy use of Tuscan Iris. This gives the fragrance a distinct "lipstick" or "makeup bag" aroma that is incredibly smooth, powdery, and high-end. As it dries down, it becomes warmer and more gourmand, with Ambrette (Musk Mallow) and Pear providing a fruity sweetness, while Virginia Cedar and Vetiver keep it masculine and structured. It smells like a luxury hotel, expensive leather, and a glass of fine cognac.

Fragrance Note :

• Top : Lavender (Clean and aromatic).
• Heart : Iris, Ambrette, Pear (The signature powdery, creamy core).
• Base : Virginia Cedar, Vetiver (Woody and masculine).

Care and Use :

• Apply : This is a dense, high-performance fragrance. The heavy iris and musk, it creates a sophisticated "cloud" around the wearer .
• Occasion : This is not a gym or casual t-shirt scent. It is the ultimate choice for formal events, weddings, winter dates, and black-tie occasions. It performs best in the Winter and Fall; the cold air makes the powdery iris feel crisp rather than heavy.
• Store : Iris-based fragrances are sensitive to light and temperature changes, which can make the scent turn "sour." Always store this in its box in a cool, dark drawer to preserve that creamy, buttery iris quality.
