About This Perfume
L'Homme Parfum Intense by Yves Saint Laurent is a Oriental Woody fragrance for men. L'Homme Parfum Intense was launched in 2013. L'Homme Parfum Intense was created by Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion. Top notes are Lemon, Black Pepper and Bergamot; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Artemisia and Violet Leaf; base notes are Ambergris, Woody Notes, Benzoin, Leather, Suede and Cedar. At the end of August 2013Yves Saint Laurent will offer another version of the original fragrance L'Homme from 2006. The first fragrance was succeeded by several different versions, most of which were created for warm days. As contrast to fragrances L'Homme L'Eau d'Ete, Cologne Gingembre, LIbre or L'Homme Tonic launched this year, Yves Saint Laurent announces a more intense L'HOMME PARFUM INTENSE. The new perfume, L'Homme Parfum Intense will announce the fall collection by YSL. The warmer and more intense composition is signed by perfumers Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion, created of a blend of citruses, spices, woody and floral notes. The perfume opens with lemon, bergamot and black pepper. Heart of the composition is highlighted with orange blossom and Indian davana blossom (artemisia), along with woody accords and ambergris in drydown. The fragrance arrives in a flacon shaped like previous editions with hexagonal stopper made of silver metal, differing in color of liquid, which is colored in warm amber shade this time. YSL L'Homme Parfum Intense will be available as 60 and 100ml.

The verdict
Best for
Yves Saint Laurent has been releasing fragrances since 1964; Scendira lists 313 of them, with 77 in stock live. The catalogue divides cleanly into the vintage-heritage arm (Opium 1977, Rive Gauche 1971) and the modern gender-fluid line, Libre, Y, MYSLF, Myself, Libre Le Parfum. Prices in stock run $9 to $390. Community's top five right now are the divisive-and-loved Opium Pour Homme EDP (star anise vanilla cedar, 1995), Opium Parfum (1977 amber incense spice), 6 place Saint Sulpice (smoky leather resin, 2017), Y EDP (fresh apple sage aromatic, 2018) and Rive Gauche pour Homme (fougère star-anise, 2003). Family lean is gourmand-forward on the feminine side, fresh-aromatic on the masculine side.
