St Dupont Intense is the male half of the Intense duo launched by St Dupont in 2009. The masculine edition of the duo is an elegant woody-oriental scent with top notes of lemon, lavender, and bergamot, which create a strong aromatic opening. Middle notes of saffron and orange blossom add a touch of spice to the aroma while preventing the lemon from dominating the fragrance. A complicated base featuring tonka bean closes off the scent, giving the upper notes a smooth, slightly dark layer that keeps the evening fragrance interesting throughout its many stages.
