J'adore Intense

J'adore Intense by Dior is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum in the designer price tier. It opens with ylang-ylang, moves into rose and jasmine and dries down to vanilla. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

• Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.

Heart

• Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
• Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.

Dry-down

• Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
