Intense Oud by Gucci Eau de Parfum 90ml

Product Information

Gucci keeps its high quality oud fragrance very linear for 8-10 hours at a high level. It is a bit stronger and darker than the M7. But still round. The projection is GUT. I reached out directly to Gucci, and I’m waiting for their official response. As soon as they respond, I’ll update the post. In the further course the fragrance shows its great class! The saffron, a bit unpleasant for my nose, fades after only a few minutes and the fruity and delicious combination of pear&raspberry is added. Because of the rose and orange blossom the fragrance becomes slightly floral-sweet almost in the same breath, which I like very much. Patchouli as well as amber provide the woody touch, but the oud note is in the foreground here and is mMn predominant. In the final dry-down, it reaches its full potential and evolves into a rich, elegant, smooth, and stunning ambery-oud scent that is just incredible. Aurelien Guichard really managed to pull this one off to smell as niche as possible. The way this fragrance has a polished, smooth, and controlled oud really makes it much more likable than the oud usually is. Even if you are not a fan of oud-oriented scents, there is a high possibility that you will end up loving this one.

Intense Oud Gucci has excellent longevity and will last for 8-10 hours, depending on your skin. The projection is fair as well and will last 1-2 hours before it slowly starts getting closer to the skin. It could be considered an all rounder, but I think it works it’s best on evenings, especially in the colder seasons. In the mid-dry-down, you can sense the smooth kind of leather with a bit of the depth and warmth which comes from the notes of amber. I also get that smokiness and dark kind of feeling as well, which compliments the whole amber-oriented composition very nicely.I really like Gucci Intense Oud eau de parfum. I think it’s a brilliant fragrance for all men looking for that masculine gentlemanly style of scent which has ouds, woods, leather and amber.

To my surprise, and surprise to many fragrance lovers, in 2016, Gucci succeeded in making our jaws drop and award us with one of the best designer’s oud scents of all time. That was the moment we were waiting for.My personal favorite phase of Gucci Intense Oud is when it goes to the mid and the final dry-down – it smells exceptional. So if you’re out with friends, the wife, girlfriend, or for a formal event, it’s going to be a good scent to wear. As of the time of writing this (August 2023), Gucci Intense Oud has not been officially discontinued. Some oud fragrances just hit you with a large wall of oud and wood and nothing else. I’m not a huge fan of those, and find those a bit one dimensional and can be overbearing.

The oud and woody notes are strong but not overbearing. This works well with the smokiness of the incense along with the amber and leather and combining all of that gives off a really seductive and inviting scent you’d like to wear on a night. Unlike its predecessor, the Oud Intense Eau de Parfum does not contain any fruity or floral nuances. It focuses on coarse, smoky ingredients. Even the top note is very intense with tart leather, oriental-sacred incense, and woody notes. Even in the heart note, the perfume remains in the dark fragrance segment. Here things get a little more balsamic with agar wood and oriental olibanum oil. The oud is then noticeable in the base. A Mysterious And Elegant Bottle I would wear Gucci Intense Oud on a night out, or even a night in. It feels like a luxury scent and definitely one more suited to the evening. Projection – The projection of Gucci Intense Oud is great. It can be smelled by those around you from a reasonable distance.As I mentioned, I find the scent more masculine than feminine but if you are a lady that loves smoky, leathery scents then you have nothing to worry about. Is Gucci Intense Oud Discontinued? I have only had this bottle for a few weeks but it’s already the one I want to reach for, and even thinking of getting another bottle already! Gucci Intense Oud Parfum Notes Not only that this fragrance make you feel desirable, sexy, and luxurious, but it also delivers amazing performance, with a scent like this you will breathe uniqueness wherever you step foot in. Another great point about this scent is how long it lasts. It’s an eau de parfum and a woody type of scent so you’d expect it to last, and it does.
