Black Tag Intense 2022

Both this and Black Tag are amazing fragrances! Performance is mid when it comes to Zara i would say, not the best but also not the worst. Buy the double pack, you will not regret it! Great value for the price!

Great scent. This smells really nice. habdan By PDM comes into mind on the dry down. Great fragrance for the price.

A great men's fragrance that has absolutely awful longevity, as you can, unfortunately, typically expect from Zara. It might last around 2 hour at the maximum before it completely fades away. What a pity.

I don't know why this is called 'intense', Black Tag Sport would be more fitting. Opens with a bright, fresh bergamot and then quickly becomes a very generic men's freshie shower gel type of scent with no stand out notes - smells almost exactly like a (men's) deodorant i've used in the past but i can't pinpoint which one... maybe one of the Nivea ones? It's not bad i guess, just boring.

Very good early on the nose but dries quickly into very mild scent, far from intense. Can agree on the Sport vibe from this one, kind of reminds of Axe shower gel in some ways. Longevity 4-6 hours close to skin.

Smells nothing but the cardamom pepper and bergamot which is put together very bad. I had a very sketchy fragrance named PHYTON HARD MEN (this name makes me shit from laughing) when I was a kid, it waited in bathroom closet for about 3,5 years and this is how that closet smelt like. Layers interstingly well with 1million tho.

It smells OK. But. BUT. Performance is ABYSMAL. It sits close to skin immediately, and an hour later there is no trace of it. No improvement overtime (half a year in a closet). It is bad even by 'Zara standard' (and I've got dozens of their other frags).

First of all, what a weird move to give this fragrance an all black bottle and call it "Black Tag Intense". That gives you a terrible idea of how it smells. They should have given it a light blue bottle and call it Zara Man Sport. Then you would know exactly what you are getting yourself into. This smells like a classic 2004 mens fragrance that has the the word sport somewhere in the name. Fresh, aromatic, vaguely green, vaguely aquatic but not marine. I think CK Truth is the closest thing to this. No similarity to LNDL at all, I'm very surprised by the votes. Is it possible some other fragrance was sold under the same name in previous years? I tried this in summer 2025. No one will think you smell bad wearing this but no one will be wowed either I think. It has a bit of a drug store fragrance vibe. But it's smooth and has that retro charm of just smelling fresh and masculine. I think you could do a lot worse. But you can do a lot better with little effort. A pass from me even though I am a sucker for these retro scents.

I was impressed by the initial spray, thinking it might be a nice unisex but on my way home, the dry down made me realise it's very similar to Magnificently Dubai, which is far more stronger, deeper and complex and I already own (which I would say is also a unisex). I think it's the prominent cardamom in both of them. BTI is leaning fresh/sporty masculine soon after spraying, so for all the ladies looking for something unisexy different - just get the Dubai instead of this.

I tend to think that ZARA uses leftovers from unsold fragrances to make "new" mixes promoted under new names. In the end, what you get is a weird concoction that dries down always in a very typical "ZARA" smell.

2025. I have the New released version of this. For me it's smells like a mix between PR Invictus Victory Edp and Sauvage Parfum.

cardamom is way too intense in this. takes over every other note. smells cheap and overbearing. no thanks!
