This is as close to smelling heaven as you can get on earth. Lasts for a really long time and is my eternal favourite, and I own more than a hundred designer perfumes.
medic24rus – :
I had this version when it was first released. It had the lipstick note very pronounced at the beginning, the first hour. Then, a strong cocoa note mixed with powder vanilla. This last combination remained without changes for the rest of its show. The thing is that it was very heavy and strong and headache inducing for me. DHI 2007 was very strong for about 16 hours with only one spray. I had to give it away. I decided to get the 2011 reformulation, which is softer in every aspect, though it is more linear and shorter lived than its predecesor. A must have anyway.

The Newer versions will never compare to the 2007 to 2009 versions.

Very lovely scent, it’s like a blast of iris and vanilla with extreme performance, very nice when applied in winter time and in my opinion deserves all the love its getting.

Got a bottle with silver stem, first formulation from 2010 for sale 99/100ml if anyone from the EU wants it, hit me up. The scent is strong but still airy, you can’t choke yourself with this. The difference between this and my 2015 version is that the vintage has a big blast of iris in the opening, the 2015 has a lighter pear fruit note. Longevity is 12-14 hrs on the vintage and 8-10 on the 2015, which is beastly because tobacco vanille doesn’t last more than 10 on my skin.
skurenko – :
I haven’t worn Dior Homme Intense (Original version) in a long time and am fortunate to have an almost-full bottle. This scent smells amazing. The iris, leather, vanilla in this scent is alluring with the cedar backbone. This scent has gotten me a lot of compliments over the years and it is sexy, mysterious and appealing. This is not a t-shirt and jeans fragrance. Wear this dressed up on a cool/cold day.

I dislike the scent.
But others love it, when i wear it.

I actually have one from 2007 and have had others from like 2012 and they are worlds apart. The strength in the 2007 version is like Mufasa to Bambi, no comparison. The Iris is super strong, the Vanilla is bombastic, the Amber is very present and the Cedar later in the drydown comes to you. The lasting power on this can be as much as a week on clothing and on the body, 24 hours if not touched or longer. I can’t believe the power of this truly is amazing. The 2012,2013, 2014 version just don’t last the same way. The lasting power of those are around 5 or 6 hours and certainly is watered down too. The smell isn’t the same either, it’s super light. All in All, if you can find versions from 2007 to 2011, do so, you won’t be disappointed.

Vanilla, Vanilla and Vanilla …
When I tried Dior Homme Intense for the first time, I found it sweet (very sweet) like a Carrot jam. I think Vanilla is most powerful scent in this fragrance. Vanilla scent is so powerful that other scents have pulled over. I understand the comments about the “lipstick smell” and I am agree with them. I like “DHI” but I didn’t realize that why people keep saying “sexy” about this fragrance or others fragrances.
What is the criterion of fragrance to be considered as “sexy”? I think people called the “sexy fragrance” when they received a good feedback from other people about perfumes they wearing.
اولین باری که این عطرو تست کردم برام خیلی شیرین بود (خیلی) . رایحه ایی به شیرینی مربای هویج. به نظرم وانیل قوی ترین رایحه در این عطر باشه به طوری که رایحه های دیگه رو تحت تاثیر قرار میده و حتی کنار میزنه. من کامنتایی رو که نوشتن بوی مواد ارایشی خانم ها رو میده درک میکنم و تقریبا موافقم با این نظرات .
در کل عطر دوست داشتنی هست ولی اینکه که دائم میگن این عطر خیلی سکسی هست رو درک نمیکنم. اصلا معیار سکسی بودن یک عطر چی هست ؟ فکر کنم هروقت مردم یه بازخورد نسبتا خوب نسبت به یک عطر میگیرن (گاه از روی صداقت گاه از روی تملق) میگن که این عطر خیلی سکسیه 🙂 . احتمالا هیچ ربطی به نوع رایحه و بالانس و هنر عطرساز و پیچیدگی های یه عطر نداره.
ETHETEGEW – :
و دیور اوم اینتنس یه عطر پودری و وودی بر پایه ایرس که همون زنبق خودمون میشه که رایحه وانیل برای تثبیت کردن بالانسش به کمک میاد یه عطر با پخش بو و ماندگاری در حد خودش عالی و بسیاری خوشبو که فیدبک های خوبی رو به ارمغان می آورد ولی کاملا به خاطر حظور وانیل یه هوای خنک تا سرد میخواد تا خودشو نشون بده آمبلانژ روایح عالیه تو این عطر در کل عطر همه پسندیه و تو کارای دیزاینری خیلی خوبه بوی نزدیک بهش رو میشه ولنتینو یومو رو معرفی کرد این عطر رو راحت میشه بلایند بای کرد و ازش لذت برد البته نسبت به مدلای قدیمی دچار ریفولموله شده ولی باز خوبه

This is precious so divine. Enough has been said about its powderiness and the lipstick vibe don’t be put off by that it’s a masterpiece one of the best creations in fragrance industry. I love it! It’s hard to choose between this and the parfum version both are great if you want more masculine and stronger version go for DHP!
gpk380speagoessenda – :
Just got this recently and can’t believe it’s took me this long to get it!this is amazing!like others have said this is one of my favourite of the Dior homme line!the vanilla and wood are the best mixture and are really noticeable !this lasts all day on me and I can still smell it on my clothes days after!the Dior homme is the best range of aftershaves /perfumes I have ever had! Cannot get over how strong and noticeable it is!sweet yet woody!
Mefti678elipseskism – :
My favorite from the Dior Homme Line. It’s hard to describe a fragrance like this, I mean, it’s amazing!
Some say it’s too metrosexual, other say it’s feminine, but I can’t understand why! It’s sexy (my girlfriend’s favorite one), it’s masculine, mature and chic.
When wearing this you must feel like “Hey girl look at me, see how serious and sexy I’m”.
Basically, Masterpiece!
I’m curious about The Parfum version, I’ll try it later.
iqs790Bessinepome – :
Yessss.today I bought it 8U01 2008 batch for about 70$ yes its potent but in compare with 2011 has less vanilla more powdery.I own 2015 batch .2008 is more similar to current version than the 2011.I havent opened it yet to judge anout performance.I will update my review soon.

Quality seems good: Th scent smells coherent and complete. It also lasts all day and projects very well.
The smell is however quite feminine, in an “adult woman” way. It reminds me of my grandmother (no idea what she wore), and my girlfriend was horrified when I put it on. She forbade me to ever wear it around her again 😀 that’s a first – and fine by me.
It is soft powdery and somewhat sweet. Not for me.

Thief – :
As I like to wear powdery fragrances during the cold season, I started hunting around for a new one and tried out Florentine Iris by Ermenegildo Zegna and Dior Homme Intense Eau de Parfum. The latter caught my eye because it comes in a beautifully designed bottle: sophisticated and refined without looking as “baroque” as some other men’s fragrances. I consider that a big plus since I associate a certain minimalism with gentlemanly understatement. As I’m an interpreter by profession, I often have to wear suits to work. In my opinion both fragrances lend themselves perfectly to a more formal attire due to their powdery notes. They’re equally long-lasting without being overpowering. However, on my skin the dry-down of Dior Homme Intense is less flowery and sweet than that of Florentine Iris. After a day I can still detect a slight whiff of lavender, vanilla and amber, which I find very soothing. It feels a bit like being enveloped in a soft cashmere cardigan after a long day’s work. Neither the original Dior Homme Eau de Toilette nor the newer Dior Homme Parfum version have the same soothing dry-down. Oddly enough, the perfume doesn’t smell as powdery and doesn’t last as long as Dior Homme Intense Eau de Parfum. If you’re looking for a powdery fragrance, I’d recommend that you try all of them to find the one you like most. For me it’s clearly Dior Homme Intense Eau de Parfum. 10 out of 10 points.
PS: Now that the weather is getting gradually warmer, I find myself wearing Florentine Iris more frequently than Dior Homme Intense. I think it’s the more flowery component of Florentine Iris which I find a little more in sync with the warmer season.
Booneeageld – :
Very good perfume with superb longevity. Heavy but not suffocating. The only problem I found the more it dries out the more distinctive vanilla appears, so next day your cloths starts smell women perfume.
рарог – :
I blind bought a large 5oz bottle of this because I heard that it is similar to my beloved discontinued Shalimar Parfum Initial:( not wanting to use up all my P.I i figured this could be a great alternative. When i finally got this in the mail i was suprised how similar it is but….only similar in the opening. It opens with a beautiful iris and vanilla/leather . After a while it turns dark and seductive with a chocolaty leather and iris still lingering. The dry down is the most masculine part imo, it smells of vetiver and leather but still has that yummy warm chocolaty smell. It’s quite beautiful! It’s a different animal than Shalimar Parfum Initial but i don’t mind. I find this very alluring, mysterious, and unique. I haven’t smelled this on any one that i know and it’s not a fragrace a non perfume loving women would think to wear. Longevity is around 4 to 5 hours on my skin and sillage is soft but i continue to get whiffs of it through out the day. It lasts much longer on clothes up to 8 hours. It is definitely a unisex scent as long as you don’t mind a slightly masculine drydown in perfume. Im really loving this and i feel amazing wearing it! It makes me feel powerful , sexy and classy.
Update: I had to come back and say that Dior Homme Intense layers flawlessly with Shalimar Parfum Initial. So any ladies that want to cut back on the number of sprays you use from your treasured P.I , Dior Homme Intense with a couple sprays of Shalimar Parfum Initial on top and it’s amazing. 😉 smells like the beautiful vanilla,carmel leather dry down in Shalimar P.I and lasts a long time this way. Xoxo

артём78 – :
This is nothing like your favorite, typical ‘masculine’ scent. It is rather subtle and unique for a man’s fragrance. Not at all overpowering. In fact my husband has a tester for this and I sometimes spritz it on myself as I love the combination of vanilla and powder that makes it smell so unisex. This is also one of those few ‘can smell it the next day’ perfumes. Extremely long lasting. Can’t wait to grab the full bottle. Pure bliss.
4ord135f – :
I had this perfume a year ago. I bought it because I had the normal Dior Homme before. Loved the tester I tried and loved it the first weeks of use.
But after a few weeks something started to turn over, and I disliked the smell of it. Something food like. At one time in a public space I heard someone say “Hey it smells like coffee cookies (Bastogne cookies from Holland is the right smell) in here.
I was glad I finished the bottled, and I will never buy it again.
Longevity & Sillage are very good though!
orik011 – :
So I want to buy a new fragrance and especially one from the Dior Homme line. I bought samples of Dior Homme and Homme Intense. For the people who say this reminds them of Guerlain Shalimar Parfum Initial, they are 100% right on!!!! I could not believe it. The sample I got is 4v02(2014). Personally I don’t like this one, Dior Homme to me is much better although quite feminine. So if you are a fan of this one and don’t like the reformulated version, you can just get the Guerlain Shalimar Parfum Intial for no more than $40 compared to $80-$160 for Intense.
Skalibyr – :
This perfume combines three things that I don’t like in perfumes: iris, vanilla and sweet notes. But, in this one (2007 formulation), these three ingredients are combined so perfectly, that I actually love it!
stefand – :
Even though it’s smells like lipstick, especially when you put it on, it’s a quality man fragrance that’s real classy and one of my new favourites. Just bought it a couple of weeks ago after trying it out and hearing all the hype, and I was not disappointed. When the iris settles and the powdery and creamy vanilla kicks in, that’s when this really shines. And let’s not forget about the longevity and the projection. Before i bought this i had never owned a fragrence that has a 24 hour longevity on me, but this one does. It REALLY is an intense version and the projection is crazy, people could smell me from 10 feet away easily.
Scent: 8/10
Projection: 10/10
Longevity: 10/10
treyrg – :
Has definitely been reformulated, I first smelled a decant of a batch from 2014; smelled amazing and preformed well. Bought a 2015 batch from Fragrancenet and it was a skin scent and vanished within an hour. Highly disappointed.

Ribolov535 – :
You honestly cannot go wrong with this one – it is the first perfume I’ve ever fallen in love with and I don’t know what words to use to do it justice. What I love about it is the vanilla note; it’s strong, but it’s not too strong and it never leaves your skin.
Strong scent, exudes masculinity and confidence. Would maybe say that it’s more suited for night, but day works too if the winter in your country is harsh.

Since I became a little bit obsessed by Chanel no. 5, I knew there has to be some parfume for men that is a bit feminine with a similar feeling.. So to this Dior parfum I give A+… I dont know about you, but Im very confused about parfumes by Chanel for men, theyre mostly horrible.
If you like Dior Homme, you may appreciate also Gucci Gucci by Gucci, similar a bit sharper

At the moment I am layering it with chanel platinum egoiste and it is great. On its own I find it a bit to sweet.Definitely don’t overspray it, it gets cloying if you do.

Such an incredible fragrance. I already own the regular DH (black stem, 2011) which is why I haven’t purchased this one too, as i’m not entirely sure there’s enough of a difference for me to need both of them.. but this is some truly exquisite juice.
So elegant, smooth, seductive, classy and the fragrance just evolves beautifully as the hours go by. Highly recommend trying this is if you get the chance!
Mr.shad – :
COMPARAÇÃO LADO A LADO – DHI REFORMULADO X VINTAGE
(SIDE BY SIDE COMPARISON – REFORMULATED VS VINTAGE DHI – sorry, portuguese only at the time, soon the english version!)
Demorei um pouco, mas a quem interessar aí vai um resumido “side by side” entre o DHI Vintage (frasco de 2008) e o atual (frasco de 2014): quanto ao aroma, a abertura floral (íris/lavanda) é mais marcante no atual (o vintage mostra mais lavanda). Considero um ponto positivo, pois gosto da abertura atual, embora seja sufocante para alguns. O vintage se mostra mais linear nesse sentido, já deixando escapar um pouco das notas de coração (leia-se baunilha), tornando a fragrância mais branda e adocicada já de início. Passando para o coração/base, noto que o vintage é mais “redondo”, de novo porque o acho mais linear: a baunilha passa a dominar, embora já apareça no início, e o fundo esfumaçado de cedro/vetiver vem somente complementar, sendo notável apenas depois de horas – sendo que a baunilha permanece firme, “à lá” Le Male. Devo destacar que a Dior fez um excelente trabalho em simular a doçura da baunilha com uma mistura de pêra e ambrette (o ambrette dá um caráter musky à base) na versão reformulada, que se integrou muito bem ao resto da fragrância. Quanto à fixação e projeção, na minha pele não percebi diferenças substanciais (acho, inclusive, que o corpo musky/adocicado da versão atual projeta um pouco mais que o abaunilhado/ambarado da vintage, que tende a ser mais discreto na secagem, embora ambos sejam bombas). Em suma, e levando em conta minha OPINIÃO PESSOAL, concluo que a versão atual ainda pode ser considerada uma obra de arte, e se não possui a relativa linearidade e homogeneidade que a baunilha proporcionava na versão vintage (digo relativa pois comparado a outras fragrâncias não é nada linear, rs), continua sendo uma fragrância inusitada (com uma abertura ainda mais explosiva) e intrigante, em minha opinião até menos doce e mais aromática e talcosa/polvorosa (“powdery”) que a versão original. Ousaria “quantificar” – se é que isso é possível – que a versão atual retém 90 a 100% da qualidade (QUALIDADE, em termos gerais, não similaridade de fragrância) da formulação original. (11/11/2014)
UPDATE 2015: Após muito uso das duas versões, complemento dizendo que a base da vintage é uma baunilha pesadamente “esfumaçada” pelo cedro/vetiver; a base do reformulado é musky (ambrette/musk mallow), levemente esfumaçada, mas sem baunilha. A abertura, como já disse, é muito mais potente no reformulado, devido à predominância da íris sobre a lavanda (a qual divide as atenções mais igualmente com a íris na versão vintage).

Firstly, this is not true that only existed since 50ml.I have a bottle of 150ml. Secondly, beautiful perfume! Strong, deep and dark. For a moment forget the present, and go in the past! Unfortunately, the real Horror is yet to. It was back in 71., like a nightmare crying, in a hotel bed on the coast. Now my head is burning, and I could write a million stories, if I ever get out here alive. Tales of love and hate and pain, and my fears would truly frighten any ordinary man, but Dior Homme Intense gave me a sign, and I followed he to a hause of light somewhere in the night. Dior Homme Intense, is the best sweet perfume today, in designer rang. Different from others, incredibly projections, top hot aura, and a feeling of great freedom, that even time can’t win. Dior, ultimate respect for Homme Intense!!!

This fragrance is discontinued since march/ 2011 and hard to find. It could be found from time to time on ebay at price 300$ plus. It soon will become part of history.
The reformulated version is different: three notes were removed and replaced with less quality notes. they removed vanilla , amber and coco and added pear, Ammbrette and lavender.People still confused between two versions and still add reviews in the wrong place as each fragrance has it’s own page. The vintage (silver caller) version is better in terms of quality,longevity,projection, and complement factor.It is real masterpiece.The reformulated version still good and better than most of designer fragrances in the market.The lip stick smell found in the opening is something nice and attractive for women which i wondered why people criticize it too much.
My Overall Rating for vintage (silver caller version) as follow:
sent: 10 / 10
longevity: 10/10
projection: 9/10
silage: 9/10
versatility: 8/10
complements: 10/10

versatility: 8/10

Ok at first I didn’t like this. I thought it was feminem, powdery and lip stick vibish.. But the dry down on this is heavenly after I smelled it the second time I appreciated it more, now I find myself reaching for this masterpiece a lot, and what better time than this time of the year to really bust this one out.
The parfum version is ok, it’s a little more in your face with the leather and iris and some say it’s a little more masculine, longevity and projection are about the same on me though.
The dry down on this is so not those first words I started this review with… It’s so sexy, smoothie and the vinialla leather powder and iris are blended so softly yet here I am, it’s no wonder this fragrance gets so much love and is in the hall of fame.
This juice is quality. It’s different. It’s so seductive. It’s better to wear it and not smell it directly but to waft and let the air mix with it and then let the aroma reach your nose…mmmmmmm I’m getting really deep with this now because I’m wearing it and I,m in the dry down 6+ hour stage where I personally think this beast shines 🙂
Try b4 you buy

I smell warm, creamy vanilla, and perhaps cocoa? I do understand the comments about the “lipstick smell”. This lasts long for me (8+ hours).
Women want to get closer to you when you wear this for sure.

When I have enough money to be able to buy any perfume I want, I will buy this one. I am a woman yes, so usually I spend money on female perfumes, so that’s why… 😉 It’s Dior, so nothing cheap, but it’s worth the money. I in fact don’t like many Dior perfumes, they are too light, very interchangeable with most cheap perfumes (except for Poison), so this one is very very special in the whole Dior range I think. It is very similar to Diptyque Volutes to me.
I smelled it on one guy and fell in love with it / him immediately lol. It is indeed very sexy, yet very sweet for a men’s fragrance, so it’s just for guys who can wear it well and properly. Would say that in fact it’s better on dark haired guys 35+ with dark soul charisma rather blonde sportsmen. I would also prefer to wear it at night rather than at day.
Probably my n.1 in men’s perfumes – if I wanted to get something very very extraordinary.

This is the 2007 vintage version, which I compared to the 2011 reformulation the same day by wearing on different wrists.
Iris, vanilla, cedar, vetiver notes are common to both the 2007 vintage and 2011 reformulated versions, with the iris and vanilla being the strongest. they’re both sweet, floral, and woody, and in that sense, they can into a few different categories, and don’t seem confined to one season, though they definitely leans to the cold weather, as much because of the notes as due to the strength of the fragrances. I’d say it’s more of a formal night scent, given how provocative it is.
To compare the versions: vintage is heavier, more saturated, with a little more projection. The cocoa aspect is much stronger on the vintage, whereas the sweeter note in the reformulation is more like vanilla. The exorbitant costs of obtaining the vintage see
The criticisms of both versions leaning to the feminine side and smelling like makeup and lipstick are warranted, at least to me. Both smell a bit like lipstick and are somewhat powdery, and in those respects, the reformulation isn’t one I’ll be buying at the current pricing (cheapest I’ve seen is $71 for a 100ml on FragranceNet), though it’s important to note that the strength (though not as strong as the vintage) makes this one worthwhile if you are a fan of the scent, as I get a while out of both versions. And it certainly stands apart from most fragrances, save the rest of the Homme collection.
It doesn’t quite live up to the hype, with feminine lipstick smell being a polarizing factor, but it’s something I think that ought to be smelled, as it might make a somewhat unique addition for many fans, especially fans of the original Homme.
Both are 7 out of 10

scent- 9.5 / 10
Longevity – 10/10
versatility – 7.5 / 10

In my very humble opinion, i think this is one of the MOST OVERRATED perfumes! Tried it at the airport and thought i was gonna love it. But that love died out straightaway after i got the bottle. Doesn’t last more than a couple of hours. Gave it away as a gift.

You are spot on in your description, thanks.
I also have Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, and I agree (after the first about 30 minutes, certainly not the start)

Tryed it in a store.
The first impression= I did NOT like it, certainly not, and I was (read more) happy, that I did not blind bought it, as I often do based on reviews here.
I can read here, that some calls it “lipstick” (the start) = I do not know what this is, but it was awfull.
Later – I think it was about 30-45 minutes later – I “sniffed” again on my wrist, and now it was turned into a fantastic smell I really, really love, and I am seriously considering buying it, even I have enough other really good stuff.
Fantastic change.

Loved the bottle, simple and basic but elegant. In my other review I said it can’t be compared to the perfume version being two different things. This one is more sweet, lasting and with an amazing projection.
Definitely not sure if recommend this ir the perfume, they are both very nice. Consider its counterpart it’s dark side.

Smells like a bag of makeup, lipstick and pencil shavings and the cacao and leather sort of lie underneath. Nice scent for a mature woman.

After seeing “DHI” getting endlessly recommended around these parts, I finally decided to try it via a Nordstrom sample.
I can see what all the hype is about; this stuff is quite nice and one of the very few florals I am willing to wear. (Although I suppose it’s really a gourmandy floral.)
The vanilla/cocoa drydown is very pleasant. And it’s long-lasting! That’s rare. Well done, House of Dior!

I have never had the chance to smell it – but I just did a blind buy! Please tell me I made the right decision….

I don’t own this perfume but I tried on and I really like it. My girlfriend says “It is intriguing, it has something different or mysterious”. I agree.
For a moment, in a good way, the notes of this perfume seems to be contradicted! there is contrast in different scents in the fragrance and that makes it more “alive” and intriguing.
I would say it suits men who have that calm, classy, manly and mysterious character.
I might give it a go myself and buy one!

my boyfriend has this and its a knock out every single time i smell it, even if ive smelt it 100 times before on him. very aromatic oud spicy and masculine velvety vanilla scent. i wouldnt say its a sexual or arousing perfume but this stuff smells super good, and epitomizes how a man should smell :o)

It starts with this weird smell of an old drawer with old make up stuff in it, primarily lipsticks that have
lost their caps. It actually smells more off-putting than it sounds. It can be deplorable.However, wait for 15 to 20 minutes during which the lavender(responsible for that old and musty smell) tones down and the smell transforms into this luxuriously delicious smelling blend of iris and vanilla, which then becomes increasingly cosy and delicious with the passage of time.
It has been mentioned on more than one occasions th
