Real talk
Cologne Intense earns its name in the base, not the opening. The top plays by cologne rules, citrus, brightness, easy. But the vetiver and cedar that follow?Cologne Intense
Most aromatic fragrances play it safe. Wood and Absinth doesn't. The absinthe opens sharp and green, that bitter edge most perfumers smooth away. If you want green that bites, this is your scent.Wood & Absinth
