L'Eau Kenzo Intense pour Homme

it is new 2015......a great fragrance, airy but soft vetiver surrouded by angelica and woods... it projects very good ... i can swear i smell ISo E super here... but nevermind...The best one from Kenzo!!!

My absolute favourite Kenzo fragrance! Oceanic, sweet, pleasant, feel-good smell which is perfect for the spring/summer Starts strong but I wish projection and performance were better

One girl 2y ago said that i smelt amazing when i were wearing this masterpiece, not me and that girl have been dating for 2y. Do your math or sum

Released this year (march of 2015), this version was introduced in the market as a fascinating and refreshing fragrance. L'Eau Kenzo Intense is a limited edition of the L'Eau Par Kenzo collection, which was launched almost 2 decades ago. I don't know why they changed the name. However, if we translate, L'Eau Par Kenzo means "water by Kenzo", while L'Eau Kenzo is closer to "Kenzo water", which means that, what was once an interpretation, now became an affirmation. Either way, it's the kind of change that I think is unnecessary. The official composition brings marine accord, lime and yuzu, in the head. Then, notes of black basil and Lotus flower are blended in the heart. Finally, cedar and vetiver at the base. The result is an aromatic and floral fragrance (in my opinion), that reaches the skin in a sour and slightly minty manner. It is very easy to notice the nuances of yuzu and lime at this stage. After a while, a drastic change occurs and the scent shows itself more floral, with great presence of the Lotus flower. When it reaches this stage, does not change anymore. I haven't met the female version yet, but this one can be easily worn by women. With respect to the projection, is very good at the start, but then, almost disappears without a trace (literally). But I can't complain about the longevity, since the scent got stuck on the skin for many hours, albeit very close. The bottle kept the pattern, with a dark blue color, becoming very beautiful. Unfortunately, is another one of those fragrances that are coming to market with the promise of more intensity, but do not match expectations. Works very well as an Eau de Toilette, but the term "Intense" only serves to draw attention.

I see the similarity with Invictus, I would say it is a darker version of Invictus, for summer night occasions ( not a clone, but the similarity is there ). Longevity is not bad, projection is very good for the first hour, but then disappear completely. The problem with this one is that you need to spray a lot of it to get a good amount of projection and sillage, but being a sweet scent, if you overspray it, you will literally choke anyone around you for the first hour. So when I know I will wear it, I heavily apply it at least 30 minutes before to meet someone else. If you like the Invictus bubblegummy vibe and you find it a 20-25 dollars, give a try, but I paid it 56 $ when it was released and with that kind of longevity and projection it doesn't really value that much.
