Great Replica of Dior Homme Intense

To begin with putting it in a clone category which is what it should be it's very close you will hardly Feel the difference,
The performance is where it lacks to it's Inspired one.
The one who made this clone was a genius because I've never come across a fragrance which is this close "YET",
Performance is where I Find it a little weak but still satisfactory
- Average Sillage & Average Longevity
But If you ask me I think you should go for it..

It is what Dior Homme Intense used to be

I have a bottle of Dior Homme Intense (2018), I recently bought a bottle of DHI (2024) but it's not even close to the old one, not even the color is the same after the reformulation. It's incredible how good Kayaan Clasic is and how close it resembles to the old DHI, i would say roughly 90-95% close just a hint more sweeter. The value for money for this juice is a 10/10.
The persistence is also decent, i would say somewhere between 6-8 hours
As a downside i would say the atomizer could have been better. Also it was a bit hard for me to find this perfume, it was sold out everywhere, i set a stock alert on a website and it was sold out entirely in a couple of minutes.

Dior Homme Intense at it's best

This one smells better that the Dior Homme Intense batches of 2024, resembles more the 2018 version that I own and I haven't even tried the newer version which probably smells totally different.
Excellent value for money considering that I've paid $20 for it.
In terms of performance, at first I was disappointed but every few months that I am testing it, it just gets better and better.

The sweeter Dior Homme Intense

I've heard a lot of positive things about the "Kayaan Classic | Al Wataniah", but not everything you hear or read is ultimately true.
But here my expectations were even exceeded.
Because Kayaan Classic is really very close to DHI.
Perhaps a little bit sweeter, so it could easily go in the direction of Valentino Uomo Intense (2016), but it is more similar to DHI.

Iris is not listed here at all, but it's actually the first thing I notice.
It's that "lipsticky" iris note that DHI is so well known for.
Al Wataniah really nailed it perfectly.
I'm surprised what you can do for little money.

As I said, it becomes a little sweeter than the original as it progresses.
Nevertheless, I would say that you hardly notice these differences in the air, you really have to have a very practiced nose.

Powdery, slightly sweet, with an iris that lingers until the end, very ingenious.
Leather and sandalwood are also somewhere in the background, but never become too prominent for my nose.
They only support the iris and ensure that you get the perfect DHI DNA here.

Many gave the fragrance a 9 in terms of sillage.
I personally don't think it's that good.
However, I do think that it is perceived and I also perceive it well.
But a 9 is almost a beast for me and Kayaan is not that.
But the original isn't any better, I have to say that clearly.
The durability is such that you can get away with it for about a good working day.

Who? When? Where?
- rather not unisex, but masculine
- always wearable except on hot days
- perfect for work, dates, or simply to smell good in everyday life

My conclusion: you really can't go wrong with this one.
Good quality, makes the DHI almost superfluous and the performance is also ok.
Was one of my best blind purchases in 2024.
Unfortunately always sold out very quickly, but if you can find it for a small price you should definitely go for it.

More than a DHI clone

The Kayaan Classic is known as a dupe for Dior Homme Intense, but it is more than that. The DHI is one of my favorite fragrances, but it has shortcomings that the Kayaan Classic remedies. First of all, the DHI is getting weaker and weaker and performs worse, plus this synthetic powderiness is too strong, many describe it as a "lipstick scent". The Kayaan Classic brings this note into the background and replaces it with a more pleasant powdery sweetness. This is very subtle and remains in the background, which means that the fragrance still cannot be described as unisex. The target group is still men.

So far, everyone I have shown the fragrance to has liked it. It appeals to a wide range of people. Nevertheless, I don't recommend a blind buy, as I also know people who hate the fragrance. If you like Dior Homme Intense, you will definitely like this one too.
