Mmmmm...I like it. It's warm yet wonderfully herbally. There is a sweetness. I'd have thought too sweet for a guy to wear but of course wear whatever makes you happy,. I'm puzzled why women keep thinking lavender is for the fellas. It's a gorgeous and calming scent. It transports you to a summer garden with bees buzzing everywhere. I don't think it reminds me of old ladies at all. Quite a modern grown up scent. The musk, elemis and Amber do a fine job of softening any potential sharp edges. It's a shame the lavender retreats so quickly but that's the nature of this top note. It becomes a slightly herbally, very balsamic and resinous scent. A lovely scent for a warm night or for casual wear. I get moderate sillage and longevity.

This one seems to have had a tepid half arsed flop of a reception... which surprised me because I loved it at the first sniff. I can mainly smell lavender and "unspecified herb smell" and a bit of musk, which is exactly what I wanted somehow; I don't seem to like lavender with vanilla for example. IMO it is masculine but i don't care, and I think this is meant to be its USP anyway. I don't find it sweet, but it's also not bitter/dry. Longevity is very good on me and I can smell it all day, even when I wear it to work at my smelly smelly job!! Only thing I'm not keen on is the opaque bottle.

Obsessed Intense is a magnificent herbal aromatic perfume with great longevity and performance in this 70F, low humidity weather. If you like Burberry Touch for women, you will likely enjoy this as well. Herbal, perhaps sage, is the prominent note for me. Unisex, straight down the middle. Nothing girly here. Very respectable for such a great price.

So good, poorly marketed it seems. A shame to see it discontinued. I'm not sure if I like the intense version more than the original Obsessed, but I'm glad to have both. (Well okay my mom owns the original but she'll let me borrow it anytime I want 😆)
