Colonia Intensa Oud Eau de Cologne Concentree, from Acqua di Parma was released in 2012. The perfumer behind this creation is unknown. It has the top notes of Citruses, middle notes of Agarwood (Oud), Amyris, and Coriander, and base notes of Leather and Musk.
Sometimes names can be a bit deceptive but lets get it straight...If you're looking for a powerful woody, Oud centric fragrance, look elsewhere. I like the smell of Oud and it is strangely intoxicating but I don't know what all the fuss is about really? It's down to taste and what you look for. Is it the notes that surround Oud that give a fragrance it's character or is it vice versa? Well it depends... This is typical of an ADP Cologne, stylish, classic citrus in the top and wonderfully fresh feel with nice, gentle Oud in the base. So some pretty special juice and shouldn't be judged on the name because it doesn't deliver masses of Oud, it's great fragrance.
Bought this at the weekend and have worn it twice. My initial review below is fairly accurate as to how I feel about this fragrance...in a nutshell it's great smelling. I was convinced to fork out on it by my girlfriend, she absolutely adored it and as such was very persuasive. I will have to correct my playing down of the Oud element in my first review, this scent has Oud in abundance but it's not at all rough or full on it's soft and very long lasting. The mixture of amyris & coriander with oud is quite a dizzying, sickly combo which takes a bit of getting used to but when you do it's great.
