Intense He Wood by DSQUARED² is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for men. Intense He Wood was launched in 2014. Top notes are Violet Leaf, Violet, Watery Notes and Incense; middle notes are Vetiver, Guaiac Wood, Cedar and Sandalwood; base notes are Fir, Amber and Musk. In spring of 2014, designer duo DSQUARED² presents a new version of their first and most popular fragrance for men He Wood from 2007. This is its enhanced version called Intense He Wood. The man who is imagined to wear this fragrance is described as a modern hero who lives in a big city and dreams of nature. The fragrance is elegant, refined and strong. Inspired by escape to nature and freedom it brings, the new composition is composed of the elements of "air", "water" and "wood”. Air is represented by musk tones that blend with amber and white fir. Water is captured by crystal incense, transparent aquatic accord and leaves and flowers of violet. Wood part of the composition is embodied by rich, sensual and mysterious notes of guaiac wood, sandalwood, vetiver and cedar. The bottle is made from Canadian Red Alder wood, and each individual bottle is special in its own way, due to its material. The fragrance is available as 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette.
