Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme Intenso Eau de Parfum 40ml is the 2014 deeper, more characterful interpretation of D&G's classic Pour Homme line. Built around an aromatic lavender-basil opening, a tobacco and Moepel wood heart and a deep base of labdanum, sandalwood, cypress and musk, it's a confident, masculine fragrance designed for evening and statement wear.

Character
Pour Homme Intenso opens with fresh aquatic notes lifted by aromatic basil, lavender, geranium and marigold — a clean, herbal-fresh top that prepares the way for the composition's deeper heart. The middle introduces Moepel wood from South Africa — a relatively new fragrance ingredient — alongside tobacco, hay absolute, clary sage and bran for a confident floral-balsamic-honeyed signature. The dry-down rounds out into a powerful base of labdanum, sandalwood, cypress, amber and musk, lending the fragrance serious depth and longevity.
Who it's for
This fragrance suits men who like rich, characterful masculine fragrances with serious depth — particularly fans of tobacco, honey and amber-led compositions. It's a strong evening, autumn-winter and special-occasion choice, and a confident date-night reach for those who prefer their fragrance to project rather than whisper.
How to wear it
- Apply to clean, moisturised skin straight after showering for the longest wear
- Spray onto pulse points — inner wrists, neck and chest
- Two to three sprays is plenty; the EDP projects generously
- Avoid rubbing wrists together to preserve the herbal-aquatic opening
- Layer with an unscented body lotion in cooler months to deepen the amber-tobacco base
