Cologne Intense

Description

Here is a modern interpretation of the eau de Cologne. The scent starts on sunny citrus notes of Calabrian bergamot and Sicilian lemon with green highlights of Petit Grain from Paraguay and bright notes of Neroli from Morocco. Then aromatic top notes of lavender and tarragon and spicy notes of pink pepper. Inside the floral heart blooms a beautiful Indian jasmine, wrapped in precious incense and Maté essences. The intense and deep notes of patchouli and oak moss are warmed by the labdanum and amber. The composition is made complete by a precious musk which give a deep, lasting and unusual power to the Cologne.

History

The creations of Maison Houbigant, with only the finest ingredients, perpetuate the tradition of the Cologne originale. It is a precious Cologne with a conventional structure enriched by modern elements. Jean-Marie Farina, creator of the original cologne at the start of the 18th century, described it as: "A spring morning after the rain: it reminisces of oranges, lemons, grapefruit, bergamot, cedarwood, flowers and herbs of my land, it refreshes and stimulates one’s senses and imagination."
