Intense Oud by Gucci Eau de Parfum 90ml

Product Information

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. 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. There’s a few people online saying Gucci Intense Oud could be discontinued. I don’t think that is the case as of 2023. I was able to sample this in store and liked it, so ended up getting it for this past Christmas as a treat to myself.

Conclusion: For me personally, the Gucci Oud Intense has won. Even if the fragrance composition of the M7 is perhaps more refined, it has something more valuable for me. You notice the outstanding quality of the ingredients. The oud just smells wonderful. What amazed me the most is how the oud that is used is very professionally controlled, it is a polished, smooth, and rich type of oud that you don’t really expect from designer’s houses. Can’t say enough good words about the quality and level-expertise when it comes to fragrance composition.I send 3 fragrances into the race, which not only have oud in their name, but also smell mainly of oud. Or what I think is oud. ¶) Gucci Intense Oud is a very warm fragrance and you’re hit with a blend of amber, oud and incense right from the off. It’s such a seductive and inviting scent, and it had me hooked on it as soon as I smelt it. The nose behind this oud masterpiece is Aurelien Guichard, and he found the core of our wishes when crafting this luxurious fragrance. 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. Gucci Intense Oud smells woody, smoky, and pretty heavy where the most dominant note is agarwood (oud).

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. Overall, if you’re a fan of oud fragrances then Gucci Intense Oud is definitely one of the safest blind buys you can make. Very unique mass appealing oud, that will most certainly get you a ton of compliments! How Long Does Gucci Intense Oud Last? Patchouli, Amber, Musk and OUD? Oh yeah, if that's not a great basis!", I was quite euphoric and taken with it.In 2018, Gucci released Gucci Guilty Oud for which the audience had very high hopes (led by the Gucci Intense Oud) but in my opinion, those two fragrances have nothing in common and I wouldn’t even compare them since the Intense Oud masterpiece would blow away the Guilty version.
