My friend has this, and at first, I thought that this was definitely Jean Paul Gaultier – Le Male. Surprised to see that it was this.

Bought it for my husband and although I like the scent, I can’t smell it on him. It’s so light I decided to keep it for myself for the beautiful bottle and to layer it with other fragrances using a summer scarf. Nice unisex but for my husband I still prefer the gorgeous and sillage beast Azzaro chrome.
dssss – :
Yeah, this is pretty much a watered down Le Male , didnt change notes much for me, but for $7, not complaining

Ordered the womes version and was sent the mens I gave it to my 7 yr old son and he is so proud of his new bottle of cologne lol im glad it worked out this way but it is a slightly sweet smell and its light enough for him to wear so it worked out in a positive way

I bought them and I’m not impressed. Scent is weak on my skin, I can’t smell it after 30 minutes ( on my clothes 1-2h ).
innowashn – :
I have to say that it’s quite a feminine scent and I would recommend it to women.

This is a great cheap good quality perfume! My brother had this and it was amazing! So sexy and warm! Yummi!
aliosha – :
I LOVE IT! just bought this and it’s amazing. the first time i went out with this on me, 5 random girls came to me and said that i smell very good! jackpot guys 😉

I bought this one for my man and didnt really give it much of a smell..to me it just smelled like everything else on the market for men…..Well we split up and he moved out and forgot to take his scents with him so today I came across this one and sprayed it on….I love this stuff!! I think after the first spray,it drys down into something very yummy.
I think I want to get a bottle for myself 🙂 I think this could totally be used as a Unisex perfume.
At first it smells really manly but then it quickly drys into something soft,spicy & sweet..
Very nice Beckham!!!
Its definitely more of a “male” scent but personally I’m getting sick of smelling like fruit,flowers and powder so this one is perfect for me to have a bit of a change 🙂

A soft, balmy, linear, between the bed sheets, short lived and close to the skin frag, which is sexy, but try it before you buy it..
I applied 6 heavy sprays
O- 30 Secs – Alcohol, not much
30 secs – 15 mins. 6 inch projection. This does not list violet, but it smells similar to that to me, so maybe lavender is most prominent. This is soft, chic and sexy, no doubt, nothing hard core male here, maybe metro-sexual. There is a clear, soapy edge to the lavender. This is not unique and try before you buy; many male youth may find this gross. Ages 18-33
I can’t smell any citrus, orange or green, this is just lavender….
15 mins – 2.5 hours. 2 inch projection. Extremely poor projection, though it is called “intimately yours” so only for your partner beteen the bed sheets, all up close. It becomes a bit basic now. Ages 22- 36
2.5 hours -4 hours. Very close to skin. Faint smell thereafter which is very clean and Unisex
Many may find this very basic and cheap and booring. Perhaps the introduction of powderness may have helped to give it more depth? perhaps so, perhaps not?
I think it is an ok soft smell, but not for me

I tried this fragrance today and not really my type, as Lance said, the fragrance is like the carolina herrera 212 sexy on the start and also a little Le Male By Jean Paul Gaultier.
zpi605InsuffBooni – :
Nice silver paperbox, promising elegant bottle with nice silver cap ,very promising notes.
I always loved blood orange and basil.
So I bought it without testing when it was on sale.
I was sure it must be a super cologne.
What a disappointment 🙁
The scent starts with very strong sage and lemon.
So strong that they are almost headache inducing.
But “fortunately” they disappear after 5 minutes…
Then comes a very synthetic blood orange (try Mandarina Man if you want to know what is a natural,pleasant blood orange note!) and with similarly unnatural basil sweetness and tonkabean.
The drydown is a light sandalwood.
Intimately Yours lasts on skin cca 1 hour with almost 0 sillage 🙁
I will never buy again any DVB scent 🙁
They are overpriced,very synthetic,weak and shortlasting.
rxxx14pro – :
Full disclosure: I purchased the deodorant spray not the EDT.
I am not sure what the chemical differences are in the two above mentioned items. What I get from the AEROSOL can is way too much sweetness!
It is unbearable for me. Headache maker.
wiloterm – :
this is a grower for me. I certainly didn’t expect it smell so similiar to Signature or Signature Story. And its name is very fitting, the scent dies down extremely fast and the scent stays very close to the skin.
Spritz on too little and you don’t smell much, spritz more and you smell like a bottle of vodka just splashed out on you.
There is something in the smell very similiar to that of Banderas’ The Secret, although looking at the notes, nothing is similiar. I like the scent but dissapointed that i bought another bottle of Signature & The Secret mixed together.
PhincPleani – :
Thumbs up with anyone who agree this is similar to Le Male! Also 212 Sexy Men in the first green note.
So I’m a little disappointed, I thought it has some ice, fresh, uplifting moments as it looks. But at least, it is better than the other Intimatelys!
LenochkaRose – :
just bought it today as a gift, tried a little bit
on my wrist in the store, but i really like it!
lovely soft smell!!
ilnur – :
Out of all my experience with DVB frag, this one is soapy, cheap scent of counterfeit perfume, a mix of a drop of concentreated, alcohol and rough other stuff.
I thought it’s gonna be better than the last two, wrong thoughts.
I’ll stick to instinct series and signature, hoping for a nicer one to buy and not another blind buy.
82yurik82 – :
For shit sake, It’s that whole Givenchy Pi, strong, sticky, Tonka bean type smell again, I’m so sick of these scents, there’s some disgusting trend happening here. I get angry whenever I smell these now.
I didn’t get Le Male in this one, I got sour-fruit/tonka SMACK! and it just got softer after a while, but it’s still another sticky-note overkill to me.
combustio – :
Mix a bit of Le Male, a little D&G and a subtle spray of Pi together, water it down a bit and voilá…Intimately Yours!
This new Beckham scent is modern, fresh (but not lemonny fresh) and pretty sophisticated. The only pitty is that it rushes through it’s very nice topnotes and loses projection very quickly. A couple of hours after you’ve sprayed it on you’ll still be able to detect the nice and warm tonka bean drydown, but unfortunately no one else will.
Altogether this is a pretty decent budget fragrance.
slava56 – :
Basicaly this is Jean Paul Gaultier’s Le Male but less concentrated
esseni71 – :
Im excited for this one too. The bottle looks lovely. I have both the original ones, my fave being Night. gypsy parfumista, Pure Instinct Ice has been available here in Canada for a while now. I can honestly say that it smells almost identical to Pure Instinct, it just has a sort of frosted over look to it.
svat2007 – :
Love the bottle! Pure ad bright white!
I’m not a big fan of Intimately but I have a good feeling about this new one. The top seems fruity and fresh, the drydown maybe so so, but at least this is gonna be different from the previous editions! 🙂
Jpidus – :
I love Beckham’s fragrances and just as Pure Instinct outshined the other Instincts I hope this one will out shine the original and the Night…
Blood orange and Amalfi lemon are my absolute favorite citruses and I just adore green notes in frags, the heart sounds floral and manly with an uber-sexy drydown. I CAN’T WAIT!!
I still have not seen Instinct Ice. Does anyone know when or where this is/will be available??
I know this is not an “actual” review but when there is no article and the scent is not out all we can do is gush and hope and ask around…
EDIT 8/8/2010: So sorry I typed this after the perfume page was up and before the article appeared. Upon trying (and most likely buying) this I will delete this and submit a “real” review…
