Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
I absolutely love it; it’s my number one. Unpretentious, it’s the best woody vanilla I’ve ever tried. Although marketed as masculine, I see it as super unisex. Perfect for anyone wanting to go ‘purr’ in autumn and winter. I couldn’t care less about its projection; what matters is that it lasts days on clothes and hours on skin.
Question: Should I buy this or the Intense (blind buy)?
Overly sweet vanilla that you can really smell.
A fetish of my girlfriend and my favourite for winter dates. It smells linear with a constant boozy vanilla. Sweet without being sticky, cosy and addictive. Lasts 7-8 hours with good projection in the first few hours. Ideal for dates or parties, less so for summer days. Recommended.
I bought it blind and fell in love at first use, something rare for me. It smells masculine, with a rough sweetness like whiskey, earthy, dusty, and woody. It’s exquisite and worth all the hype; it has the highest rating on Fragrantica for a reason.
Fantastic perfume! One of the best designer scents: quality, total value, good longevity, projection, and a great aroma. You can tell there’s a good vanilla with wood and a touch of ginger at the start.
Beast mode. More than 12 hours on skin. The sweet ginger is strong from start to finish. If you like ginger, you’ll love it. I adore the scent and always receive compliments. Safe to buy blind.
Exquisite, a pleasure to wear and it doesn’t get tiring. Sweet but not cloying like the SWY.
Sweet yet not cloying thanks to the ginger in the opening; ideal for those seeking something masculine. The projection and longevity are phenomenal, noticeable on myself and others; it even surpasses Azzaro The Most Wanted EDP or Night. It’s commercial but not overexposed, an excellent choice.
Exquisite; I detect some orange blossom, especially at the start.
Very rich and sweet aroma, although for me it ends up being a bit cloying. However, the longevity and trail are very good.
It’s not that I dislike it; it’s rich, but I feel it lacks definition; you don’t detect the notes and it doesn’t evolve into something more agreeable. By the third use, it became cloying for me; it’s strong, suitable for winter, nights, and those who prefer potent perfumes. Good projection and longevity. Do not buy blind (that was my mistake). I do not recommend it; the black version of The Most Wanted is better. It will bring you compliments, women like it, but I haven’t liked it. I feel it’s for young people under 25.
I bought it blind because I already owned the other Azzaros, and the rating is extremely high, even higher than Le Beau. It’s a rich fragrance, but it offers nothing new in the line. It resembles The Most Wanted Intense version very closely; I don’t recommend owning both.
When dry, it smells like Invictus, but with much more vanilla.
The Most Wanted is youthful, with a synthetic sweetness and cardamomo over a caramelised amber base that can overwhelm those over 35. The opening is light, but it improves as it dries with notes of chewing gum, caramel, and smoke. Its DNA recalls Stronger With You; it’s not original, but it works for going out and attracting attention.
An absolute must-have for any collection. Mystery, elegance, and everyone loves it; it’s classy and superb. Performance and sillage are excellent. Although the price is high, it’s worth every penny. Blind buy? Without a doubt.
I haven’t owned the Stronger With You Intensely, but I’ve heard of it and I find it hard to tell the differences… But that doesn’t take away from it being a fantastic fragrance.
Smells like grape, very similar to Alien by Mugler but with vanilla, like grape bubblegum mixed with vanilla. It sounds very nineties, too boring, lacking character and personality. I don’t see it as sexy, masculine, or suitable for going out at night; zero novelty and with touches of lady perfume. I understand why people say it’s great on TikTok, but to me it’s an exaggeration. It’s the best in the line, but I have no intention of trying the others.
A magnificent fragrance. In terms of performance, it lasts four hours on skin. The ginger touch gives it a distinct twist compared to SWY Intensely or TMW EDP Intense, though it remains sweet.
Excellent fragrance, a safe bet if you’re looking for something for a cool evening. It has a very clean vanilla that doesn’t cloy and maintains a warm vibe. It lasts over 9 hours with good projection; if you spray it on your clothes, it will last a couple of days. Although it’s sweet, it has all the right masculine touches and women love it. It’s one of my favourites and every time I finish it, I’ll buy it again.
I just sprayed it on and it’s delicious, but I expected more. I thought it would be very sweet like the SWY, but it isn’t. It opens fresh with a noticeable ginger, perhaps spicy due to a lack of pepper. Then it mixes vanilla and woods with a sweet touch but not cloying. In the end, it settles into a sweet synthetic scent that isn’t cloying but noticeable. On my skin it lasts 10-12 hours, so there are no complaints there. I expected more because it has an extremely high rating on Fragrantica and many praises. It’s not bad, it’s good, but I think it has a lot of hype and is overrated. At €35 I’m satisfied, but if I’d paid more I might have been more disappointed. To repeat: it’s not bad, but it’s overrated on Fragrantica and by many reviewers. If I have to choose between this and Halloween Man X, I’d stick with the latter; both are synthetic, but the price difference matters. In my opinion, Halloween is richer and, although it’s trendy, the coffee note gives it something extra.
A good perfume, it smells like most modern sweets. It has no olfactory signature, but I bought it for the price and because it smells nice.
The best of all for me. You expect something super sweet, but the ginger and woods cut through that completely. I think below 20 degrees it’s a fragrance for any weather or occasion.
My new personal scent. It smells incredibly rich, to an amazing degree. I’ve never in my life tried a perfume so rich as this. It’s the best in my collection, by far. 10/10.
A total masterpiece, perfect for dates or special occasions. It’s sweet without being cloying, with that touch of ginger giving it an elegant, almost citrusy air. The balance is impeccable, resulting in an incredible fragrance.
My favourite date perfume, without a doubt. The longevity is absurd; the scent doesn’t go away until you shower or wash your clothes. The trail is moderate, ideal for dates and intimate moments, but not so much for partying (though fine for bars). The most important thing: the scent. It’s delicious, with a perfect sweetness that women adore and doesn’t overwhelm men, who prefer less sweet perfumes. 10/10.
If you’re looking for attraction and seduction, this is your perfume. A hit on dates and classy night parties. Sweet wood with a medicinal Dalsy dry-down that evolves into vanilla and dry woods. It’s distinctive and sets the mood. Sillage 6.5 (fades after 3 hours), longevity 8 (7 hours on skin/clothes). Price rating 7.5. Overall 8. After a year, I’ve received two compliments.
Exquisite and superbly balanced. The rich sweetness blends with the spice of ginger. Ideal for dates and formal events. I like it more than the EDP Intense, though each is for something different. For parties the Intense is better, but for what I was looking for, buy the Parfum YA. 10/10 and better value.
The worst of my blind buys: it smells irrelevant, boring and generic. It seems like grape bubblegum. I see nothing sexy or masculine. It reminds me of Mugler’s Alien, a lady’s perfume.
I own the Intense and have tried the Parfum version quite a bit; the truth is, I’m sticking with the Intense. The Parfum is a bit more serious and muted.
