What an honour sir. Very glad you stopped by and liked the review. I echo your sentiments on Aqua di Parma and this one I find accentuates your elegant mannerisms. Its very refined.
Recent follower of your channel and only recently became interested in fragrances. Bought a couple of dozen samples and this to me was the best of the lot. Now own a 180 ml bottle. Absolutely love it.
I have tried this one out a few times in store now because of your multiple mentions of this and I absolutely love it. I think it's the best from the line and even though it's an EDC, each time I've tried it, it has lasted on my all day, albeit a skin scent for about half the time. I will be ordering this soon. Thanks for bringing another beauty to light.
Thanks bud, I am glad you like this gem, its very close to my heart. This is such a versatile scnt its mind boggling , it works in every situation :) and as you say, lasts all day :)
Fantastically thorough and helpful review. Thank you so much for sharing - I now want to try this. Been wanting to find a replacement for Zara Man 2000 ever since it went off the market about a decade ago. I think this one may fit the bill.
Bought but have not opened it/tried it. I’m leaving it closed for my private pilot flying lessons next year. Your review just proves it will be great fragrance for that occasion. Not too strong, fresh professional and classy. Thank you !
"Fellas, AC Here!!" :) Great to see you in this older video AC, thanks for posting it. I am wondering whether to pull the trigger as I want to make sure longevity will be ok. I love Colonia Essenza. Cheers.
This is my most trusted fragrance for serious business meetings, its a deal maker for me :). People just love smelling it on me on business formal settings.
Fantastic review, and all your other reviews are fantastic too, thumbs up and subscribed, thanks again, and I am going to buy more from Acqua Di Parma for sure, cheers!
This is the most masculine Version of the line, it smells absolutely incredible , reminds me of Chanels Por Monsieur with a leather note. I think it’s the best of the Colonia line
Hi Nicky, I have tried all the flankers including the original, and, in my opinion intensa is the nicest and most suited to my taste. I adore this scent.
Your reviews are awesome. I have this one in my collection. I like that you often talk about how a scent makes you feel just as much as how it smells. 👍 😀
To be honest-- where Colonia is lemony freshness and clean laundry-like, the Intensa was cloying and gave me a headache. I never wore it other than on my wrist. I can't see anyone wearing this in summer heat and the DNA is wrong for cold weather. It IS intense, but not in a good way (for me). It's sitting pretty on my shelf. Sorry about that. @@290revolver290
Thank you and yeah, this review was done about 2 .5 years ago and to this day my love for this fragrance hasn't faded. I adore this fragrance even now :)
Smells Good Hello, I've mostly tried the darker ones. I'm thinking of getting either Mancera Cedra Bois or the Intensa - I saw your review on the Cedra Bois and got a sample its really great are there any resemblance between the two ?
Hi Rene, good to see you mate. Intensa and Cedrat Boise are completely different scents. i would recommend both , but if you want to watch your expenses ( which you must :)), then try small decants of both and enjoy them in spring and summer. you will fall in love with yourself :).
Hello again my friend :) Thank you very much for the info. I will order a sample and try them out, when the weather will be more hot here in Denmark. My son bought a deo/Essenza, I know, it's very much appreciated by many, but it's to much 'flower/neroli' for me. I really love the Mancera, a lovely drydown and a wounderful projection. Hours before, I'd sprayed it on my shirt, and sitting 3 meters away, I smelled a wonderful 'something' in my living room, where I let my shirt :) I'm looking forward to get the Intensa sample, I don't think my local shop have it. Have you tried the Colonia Club? (the green one). It has ingredients, I really like but I find it very harsh and to powerful. If you have tried it !? Does it develop into something nice in the drydown ? Because it is to much for me. And, just wanted to mention, that I also have the Trumper Sandalwood as a permanent fragrance in my collection 3 bottle :) ) It is quite stylish and lovely. Anyway thank you mate, and a happy New Year 🎉🎈, Cheers 😊
Rene, thank you. Denmark is a country I have never visited but I soon will. Essenza is not my favorite as the Neroli dominates, that is why I like Icon by Dunhill because the Neroli has been tamed by Cardamom and Lavender. I have not tried Colonia Club yet. I have a go soon. I think you like Mancera and sandalwood cologne because you like the note of Sandalwood, like me. I will soon do a video on 10 greatest Sandalwood based fragrances. Cedrat Boise is one of my all time favorites and it gets me a LOT! of compliments, women love it on me. Happy new year to you too Rene.
Hi Mate, many thanks for stopping by and very glad you enjoyed the review. To my nose this is better of the 3 but to be very honest with you I do not enjoy Essenza because the Neroli note is all over the place. If you like Essenza you must try Dunhill Icon, I have reviewed it , you can have a look, it is marvelous!
