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.

Smells good it was my first fragrance so I like this.This have own smell I think this is unique enough but only downside is performance it becomes skin scent after 40 minutes you have to reapply it If you want fragrance for warm weather you can try it I'm sure a lot of person gonna like it.

I would say it is similar to Invictus (same family) but it is not a clone or even trying to be a clone. I really love the scent profile but this is really weak. I can put on 10 sprays and it's gone within 2 hours.

Sadly i agree, this is so close to Rabanne Invictus, maybe some notes are in diference, a sweet overdose in invictus, and maybe an stronger floral vibe in kenzo, .. strange coincidence.

more rounded, less sharp than original has a sweeter note with the lime still smells similar, but less fresh soapy clean more relaxing dark watery clean

Nice begining, excellent top notes. However, after 40 min becomes a simple generic scent - fresh wood. Good longevity, limited sillage.

Smells fresh, blue, and aquatic. The opening has a dark, heavy, concentrated ocean scent, if that makes sense. Solid performance on my skin, lasting a full workday without problems. The scent is very linear, so it gets boring after a while. Good for everyday summer wear.

This is sweet, pleasant but fleeting and I wish it lasted longer and was more potent. No this smells nothing like Invictus. Not every modern scent in the last ten years smells like Invictus.

Uhm, I'm a big fan of original L'Eau Par, but this lacks depth for me. It's fresh, yeah, slightly sweet undertone with some woodiness to it. Easily unisex spring/summer fragrance. But it smells so flat and non Kenzo to me. To me 4/10.

It has zero similarity to L'eau par Kenzo pour homme. Zero! Nada! So I can't understand why it's called L'eau Kenzo Intense.

Initially refreshing perfume, which carries some sweet footprints, but without falling into the routine of contemporary masculine gourmand perfumes that break every week in world launches. That perfume to be used without much commitment, for the day at the Club it looks great! Light and creative opening, referring to the seaside, only well flavored, kind of a subtle immersion bath of fresh herbs, along with a lemonade heated by the sun and another light Yuzu tea, very aromatic, relaxing! In drying it becomes a handmade vegetable garden, emanates an amalgamated aroma of riches of herbs that reminds us of gathering people with indigenous roots, or family cultivation, this is beautiful, I like to feel it, the citrus aroma of the beginning remains and the aromatic issue of herbs increases with each movement, referring to the aroma of male. In drying it becomes dense and more serious, the Vetiver in it does not shine so much, but attributes to it a special "what" of remote anthropological ritual, because who stands out here is the Cedar, in raw chips of fresh, half moist, half spicy and highly aromatic; very well there in the fundão, after a few hours, L'Eau Kenzo Intense

I was stearing at the boxes of this perfume on a store shelf for few months. somehow Kenzo distributed them a way before it was supposed to be presented, that is why testers were not supplied. for me, as a l'eau par kenzo fan, it was truly hard to visit the stores every week to check the availability of testers, because I gave myself a word not to make a blind purchases so many times. finally this week testers have arrived. disappoinment. complete. probably it was my mistake to expect a intense version of the first l'eau par Kenzo. this one has nothing in common with the original. however, if someone will be seraching for a new perfume, it will be ok. I couldn't understand the idea. why Intense if it's a first among L'Eau Kenzo (without "par"), and why it's completely different if it's a Intense of L'eau par Kenzo. well anyway, don't make a blind buy.

Yes! I must admit that it makes the impression of being a new and likable summer scent. It is not weak regarding longevity so that's a plus as well compared to other options from this house. To my nose this is not comparable to PR Invictus. Yes, it is a sweet scent as well but the depth is different. Nonetheless I'd rather pass on this because I'm not a fan of too much sweetness going on. If you can ignore or get past its syrupy kool-aid notes then it really is a nice minty, cedar, yuzu combination.

This is a good fragrance for the price. Sour citrusy and strong opening with smooth ambroxan base. Maybe because of the ambroxan / salty accords people are saying it is invictus clone while in fact it is a defferent scent. The powerfull sharp lime and bitter yuzu balance the ambrox bubblegummy sweet effect in a good way. It is pleasant, modern, fresh, complements getter and affordable at discounters. Acceptable performance and longevity.

Recently purchased this, and it is a solid and inoffensive spring/summer fragrance that starts off with a burst of yuzu before settling down pretty quickly (at least on my skin) to a moderate vetiver and cedar in the base. Longevity and sillage are both weak to moderate. Smells really pleasant and is perfect for casual wear in the heat. 7/10

Invictus Legend on a budget. Of course comes with a compromised performance. It’s really good tho. Smells salty, citrusy and ever so slightly fruity, very refreshing. The longevity isn’t bad either, especially considering the price. Definitely would buy this if I was in need of a budget-friendly, spray-away summer fragrance.

Woody-aquatic masculine with unique incense-wood depth that's serene yet strong. Good performance. Intense woody-incense powerhouse with deep, smoky masculinity. Beast mode longevity. Cold temperatures amplify it. The best from Kenzo, easily.

We need to have an option to keep a record of people who leave misleading opinions. If you think this smells like Invictus or is a 99% copy then I can't take your reviews seriously

A 99% copy of Paco Rabanne Invictus. The differences are almost non-existent. An overdose of modern salty aquatic molecules. This is absolutely not the style of Kenzo!

Its ok! But i find it weak, even in the opening(!)

Yeah this smells nothing like Invictus...
