Perfumer Reviews 'L'Homme L'Intense' by YSL

[@TheFloridaSam]

Amazing. I got into fragrance heavy 1.5 years ago. This was one of my first blind buys ....I despised it. I was into citrus, fresh, and fougeres. This is 180 degrees from that. As you said, sweet and dense. Now, my nose has certainly matured and I love this. The same with Tom Ford Noir Extreme. At first I was shocked anyone would wear that. Now, anytime it's a cool night I grab for it instantly. It's truly amazing how the sense of smell works and how the brain can react badly at first, then fall in love some time later. It's not always love at first sniff.

[@StuUngar]

My reaction was the same. I got it bc my bottle or regular YSL L’homme came with one of those gift packs and had small versions of other YSL fragrances. I didnt care for either one. Now…one of em I still dont like. I dont know the name of it, but its in a black bottle. Its just too musky and strong. But Intense? That one really grew on me and became one of my favorite scents. I grew to like it more than the original l’homme

[@MoahGentle]

Probably my favourite L’Homme flanker. So classy and elegant. No shower gel freshness to be found here, it’s spices and woods.

[@StevePhilp79]

I absolutely love how you present these reviews. Smooth and articulate. Fantastic.

[@jonvalderrama2538]

I love this one as well! Ulta had a crazy clearance right at the beginning of the pandemic where they had the 100ml of this for $27. I grabbed 3! Great review Aaron love your content and honesty.

[@christianbrewerton710]

This thing is underrated. I got this one a few years back, and forgot about it because the fragrance community doesn’t ever talk about it. This video reminded me that I have it, so I pulled it back out and remembered how good it is

This fragrance absolutely does have that "roundness & smoothness" to it. So agree.

I have around 25 fragrances and this is the best scent out of them all , one of the best I’ve ever smelled 🔝💯

[@serg8251]

Thank you for reviewing one of my favourite Fragrances ever. I have been wearing this one for 6 years now and it still gets me compliments but the older formulation which is called „Parfum Intense“ from 2013-2015 is better than the newer formulations (I’ve had several batches).

[@MrDamburger]

What's your take on the 2022 EDP lhomme my friend?

[@justadudeintheworldman.120]

One of my favorites. I could tell you really liked it too

[@christiancgp7]

I love this one! Works really great in the cooler weather, it feels modern and elegant.

[@fragitude]

I was wearing this just the other day and I find it wonderful. I really like YSL's men fragrances and have six different ones from them.

[@markpeters7772]

I just bought this the reviewers are all over the place on this one from hate….to love. I do like a sweeter fragrance in cooler weather. One of my favorites is Armani Code ‘Profumo I’m glad I found your site, you even get a little into the chemistry of the fragrance. I just ordered this and I hope I love this as much as you do. Cheers!

[@wodkagorba5299]

Love these reviews. They are so relaxing and sophisticated at the same time

[@JMM440xi]

Kudos to you for reviewing this fragrance. Many reviewers on You Tube don’t give this fragrance the credit it deserves. I think it’s awesome. For the price I paid I bought 2 bottles. Great review and I liked your honest approach pointing out both your likes and dislikes.

[@kristianpeterson2571]

I recently found an old bottle of the original L’homme. I loved this fragrance so much . And now there’s nothing out there that smells like it anymore. The current formulation has almost nothing in common with the original. Which is a bummer. But I was able to get my hands on a decant of N older formulation from Steve at Fragrance Fanatic. That was such a nice gesture. Anyway, I love L’homme, and this makes me excited to try out the newer L’homme Intense. Thanks for the great review!

[@connord7701]

Sentimental for me too! This is my grab only one bottle if there is a fire fragrance. Touch wood never happens.

Hello Aaron I'm excited to say I'll get to try one of your fragrances for the first time much love to you 😇🙏

[@colins5142]

I just struck gold- apparently this is discontinued and I just found a 200ml bottle of it tucked away in one of my cabinets. I bought it almost 10 years ago, the thing is brand new. I remember buying it when I was in college and then absolutely hating it after the dry down, and the girl I liked at the time said she didn’t like it. So I put it away and completely forgot about it. Glad I never got rid of it, because my opinion on it has completely changed as of 15 minutes ago. Had to look up some videos about it because what else am I going to do?

[@gcbwoods]

Loved this review 👏

[@onolicious5777]

I literally want to stab myself in the eye! I just bought my first bottle of this and it's instantly in my top three fragrances of all time. Can't believed it's been discontinued. Just scoured the net and found a back up bottle. Sad it's going to be gone.

[@APIB89]

Wow, have to try this again. Never tested it properly on skin. Great content as usual Aaron.

[@thefragadvisor]

It didn’t wow me at first but I wasn’t disappointed because ulta had it on sale for $28. But over time, it has grown on me. Love it but it doesn’t last long on me

[@ryanepps771]

My wife got me this 2yrs ago. At first, I didn't care for it. Now, I love this stuff. She loves it on me too. YSL is my favorite designer house for Frags

[@ATLieNOLE]

Same here! YSL is most definitely my favorite designer house to. Definitely make the most sexiest and sensual frags in my opinion even against a lot of the niche houses as well. YSL Tuxedo is my favorite from their high end line along with Caban. Dior is my 2nd favorite designer house with Prada and Paco Rabanne coming in tied for 3rd.

[@ryanepps771]

@@ATLieNOLE dior is 2nd for me too! Have you tried YSL Caftan? That's my jam!!

[@ATLieNOLE]

@@ryanepps771 Actually I have Caftan, Caban, Trench and Tuxedo from their confidential aka high end line and Caftan happens to be the one I like the least out of the 4. It's just not me, there's just this note in it that I can't seem to get over so I really don't like that one much at all! You should try Caban and Trench if you haven't already, I think you'd like those. Trench is the newest one in their high end fragrance line. To me those are much easier to like than Caftan but as you know it's all subjective when it comes to frags.

[@ryanepps771]

@@ATLieNOLE not a problem. I have tried those

[@ATLieNOLE]

@@ryanepps771 Right on man! You know if frags weren't so subjective we'd all be wearing the same thing all the time so to each their own when it comes to their opinion but I do know a lot of people like Caftan. I'm just glad I bought a decant of it first before buying a full bottle like I did with Tuxedo, (my favorite and one of my all time faves at that) Caban & Trench. It's all good though man cuz I do respect your opinion. You must have a lot of similar taste to me though since YSL and Dior are your top 2 favorite designer houses just like me. Have you happened to try the new Dior Sauvage Elixir yet? If so what are your thoughts on that one because most reviews I've read said the more people like it compared to the ones who don't so I'd be curious to hear your take on that scent?

[@jm77_josemanuel]

Can't wait to try in a store. Sounds great.

[@steventampin6569]

On your point about hoping people see if box is safe, legal and compliant - I just see if the brand is reputable and assume it is. Huge companies like YSL, Chanel, Dior, Hermes, Azzaro, etc. I just take at face value it is legal and safe.

[@plamenski5244]

Great review as usual, Aaron. I like this one too but unfortunately on me it didnt last or project much at all. It was very similar to the original L'homme - skin scent pretty much the entire time. I ordered Smoulder this morning and I can't wait to wear it this fall 🍁👍 Keep the videos coming, sir

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

That’s the difference between designer for £60 and a smaller house like mine. I think it’s great for a designer for £60.00 if it was higher then Id mark it much lower.

[@AutoBodyEverything]

I smelled lhomme intense on a strip and I LOVED it right away… I came back another day to try it on my skin and it smelled like burning smoke and I hated it lol.. I’ve never hated a parfum that I loved on paper. I really wanted to buy this one but on my skin it was a different scent. Most scents are still similar on paper/skin but it must be the natural ambergris chemistry on my skin. But I really loved it on a paper strip.
