Glitter ball
"This is grade A 100% pure Colombian cocaine, ladies and gentlemen. Disco Shit. Pure as the driven snow."
Within the Nicolaï line-up, "New York Intense | Parfums de Nicolaï" may be the community darling but its spicy-vanilla-fougere masculinity seems incompatible with me. I decided to sell that one and get myself Number One Intense instead. This is a lovely white floral composition and a close second to the miraculous "Odalisque | Parfums de Nicolaï".
Tuberose is clearly in the lead here, while it is backed by orange blossom and a heavy civet-purr. The feeling is prickly dry-bitter in the opening and warms up as a pleasant sandalwood-moss slowly takes over.
There is a powerful, almost stinging 80's vibe which makes this one feel ultra-feminine. On a scale of 1 to 10? Well over 200! As my personal taste gravitates to the green and white florals, I find myself perfectly comfortable in the ladies' section of the perfume store. But with this one it took quite a while before I could wear it with confidence. Now I can tell you, once you mastered Number One Intense, a "glitterball and spotlights" entrance is part of the package.
