LOL. It's actually much lighter than the original, I own it and it's one of my favorites. I'd describe the smell of the original L'Eau D'Issey as fresh and citric, while "Intense" is still fresh but has a light touch of anise. It's really elegant. |

Definitely a fresher scent with a hint of citric behind it. It's nice.
Speaking of, it's summer...I think that's when this Japanese company makes their colognes. I gots to check out. |

How long do you find it lasts?
Also, anyone tried Kenzo Power? That's another one I want to check out. |

| Hmm that's actually not bad at all. 8+ is ideal but 6 is a good amount. Depends on the person though so will have to try it out for myself. |

Yeah, it's not bad. You can always "re-activate" the scent by going to the bathroom and splashing a bit of water on your face ;) |
