Nothing groundbreaking …
… but that doesn’t mean it’s terrible.

You can definitely tell it’s in the Y family. It’s not even close to being “intense”, but honestly that’s the biggest flaw I see in this one. Yes, you heard me right. The biggest flaw in this one is that they call it “intense”, when it’s not as strong as its older brother, the EDP.

I like it though. Is it worth $160? Not if you have any of its relatives. If you don’t have ANY of the predecessors, or you're an absolute fraghead who loves YSL, then grab it.

This one is like they made the EDP without the sweetness. Performance is about the same as the new EDT. 2-3ft bubble with a decent sillage trail that lingers well. Longevity is 6 hours on 5 sprays.

So/so release, but it still smells good. It’s just a variant of the line.

If “cash grab” had a smell, it would be this. Synthetic, uninspired, lazy, immature…and just straight up boring.

Smells very similar to the edp but less sweet and more mature. I‘d prefer the edp tbh.

Y EDP's sour apple sweet note is divisive, but also integral. Y EDP Intense lacks that note and becomes a bland & artificial fresh scent.

Y with the generic factor to the max? Considering all flankers somewhat had their purpose this is just a boring version of the EdP, clear no

More mature than the typical Y, I would like to smell this on a man, as a masc-attracted woman.
