Decanted Sample of Dior Homme Intense by Christian Dior

Interesting fragrance- the powdery iris is not for me. Does dry down to a nice note, but I prefer Prada lhomme for an iris fragrance

The "lipsticky" characteristic I've heard so much about is abundantly clear at first whiff of this one... and it's not my favorite.

That being said, so many people rave about Dior Homme Intense being a masterpiece, I feel the need to sit with it a little longer. I've really just started appreciating iris notes in men's fragrances, so I think I just waded into the deep end a little too quickly. :)

I would suggest trying before buying with this one.

Love this scent, but not always in the mood to wear it. Strong and unique.

Very good scent, though the powder is off putting for me.

By far the best smelling powdery fragrance I’ve smelled to date, it’s a must-buy for me.

I’ve heard the hype so I had to try it. Honestly, as many reviewers have said it smells like lipstick. Sweet, powdery lipstick. First wearing and I’m really liking it.

boss mode scent

I wanted the try this fragrance. I like it for the winter. Sweet, sexy, overall great ! Recommended.

Seriously good.  The first few hours are dense and spicy, and for the rest of its life it's powdery iris.  Long lasting and noticeable, my girlfriend picks this one every time over many other niche scents that I have.

The cologne has become one of my favorites.

powdery, light, wears off quickly. sniff while you can

One of the best iris scents for men at the moment. Woody, rich and warm. It can come off as too powdery and sweet but if you layer it with Dior Homme 2020 you'll get a very masculine versatile scent.

This scent exudes sophistication and class. A powdery rich scent you never want to stop smelling. It seems niche quality. Cozy and warm

Decent scent, can come off as unisex due to the powdery nature from the Iris note. Has a slight resemblance to Prada L'homme.

Love this scent. Yes it’s powdery, but also dark and sophisticated. Classic for sure.

A bit too powdery for me, but wonderfully blended.

The opening is alittle to get used to, it has a hint of makeup smell to it. But once you get to that drydown, it’s amazing! I cannot stop smelling the sample. It has this creamy sweet pear note that’s amazing, not the most manly, but I don’t care, it’s smells amazing to me. Definitely for the colder weather.

It was a bit too floral for my taste. Dries down better than it starts, but this just wasn't something I'd be interested in wearing.

I really prefer 2020 over Intense, but I prefer clean smelling fragrances over warm spicy fragrances.  That being said, this one kinda sits in the middle for me.  It's good, but not great.  

This stuff is amazing.  Smells great and lasts a long time.  It does smell a little lipsticky, so it can come across as feminine to some, but there's also a masculinity to it.  It's definitely worth a try.
