Zegna Intenso Ermenegildo Zegna for men

The best product of 2012.A fabulous upbeat fragrance.The heart accord is brilliant.Similar to Very Irresistible by Givenchy.Wonderful notes of chocolate,exotic fruits,woods & vanilla.

Yes, there is an accord here that is quite similar to Code. However, the wood is not as strong, and I found that too "synthetic" in Code so I am glad this one is not too similar. The wood seems to try to emerge once in a while but the syrupy/ambery qualities keep it in line. It lasts a long time but is not too strong (I only used one spray to the chest). I found it reasonably natural smelling and suggest that anyone who thinks the wood note in Code is too strong to try this one, assuming you otherwise like Code.

Intenso is better than Colonia, but nothing new. It's a cedar based scent, with some spices added and a touch of vetiver.
Clearly inspired by Code, weaker than Code and also much cheaper.
It's subtle and inoffensive, good for office.

I picked this one up from a store in Brisbane airport for around $ 50 approx. The scent is quite good, grows on you and works as a mood enhancer. But I am highly disappointed because of its very low lasting power. On me it stayed only for couple of hours even after a generous spray. Not recommended.

با سلام
از انجایی که به عطرهای اسپایس علاقه دارم
این عطر رو هم دوست دارم
ولی بعد از چند دقیقه اون حالت تند و اسپایسی از بین میره و رایحه به سمت شیرینی میل پیدا میکنه
من که دوسش دارم
اما خیلی نامبر وان هم نیست

Sophisticated, modern with a lot of character. I'm not usually easily impressed but this one got me. The fresh and very organic citruses immediately mellow into a heart of the best take on iris I've come across in a masculine scent. It's very soft and nicely blended with cedar, not overly powdery. The drydown is quite sweet but earthy as the vetiver keeps the tonka in check, and the scent retains a masculine dry-woody feeling. Alluring and slightly intoxicating, great romantic scent but versatile enough for day wear.

This is my 3rd Zegna offering, and, by far, the best.

It's similar to Zegna Colognia but more interesting and the scent is more solid/intense.

My wife actually commented she liked this one after the initial blast which she didn't care for. It's rare to get much praise for anything I'm wearing but this got a little.

It reminded me of Declaration without the spiciness. It's a smoother version.

Longevity is good... I applied 4 fragrances today and this is the strongest of the four after 7 hours.

Not much projection or sillage but a nice day/work scent. This isn't going to bump anything off my favorites line, but overall it's really nice.

This remind me of Issey miyaki with fresh starting. But this little to intense but soft.
Longevity are 8-10hours on my skin. Good for day time.

One of the best men's colognes on the market right now, pure class... It has a mixed balance, starts off fresh and clean, then transforms into something like armani code then it goes back to the fresh clean smell. 10/10 for smell but, I just dost think you can really stand out wearing this :s

Since I'm a bit sensitive when it comes to fragrances, I was skeptical when I first caught the aroma of Zegna Intenso. But after time I've found that the initial strong spicy scent morphs into a woodsy/musky scent with just a hint of spiciness to it. I'm grateful the projection isn't quite that strong. I actually enjoy it most whenever I catch a glancing or fleeting scent of it. It acts as kind of a pick me up. I definitely prefer the fragrance in its later stages, after a couple hours or so.

Overall I think it's a wonderful fragrance that works during the day if applied subtly, and is even better at night. Just as the designers intended I bet.

One of better fragrances out there, for sure.

Simply the best cologne I've ever smelt !
I was planning to give my boyfriend a watch for his birthday, but when I walked through the perfume department, this particular and pleasant scent caught my attention immediately.
It's so seductive and elegant, highly consistent for a man of 35 years old.
He is really enjoying my gift because I can not take my hands out of him. =)

Count Draculla's perfume!
It's the most confusing perfume I've ever seen. It opens and ends extremely yummy and sugary which smells like chewing gums and candies that changes to chemicals and medicines; stings. For me only dry out it bearable! It presents a waxy floral pattern which makes it strange and reminds me romanticism literature.
Something extremely waxy in mainstream in the background, covers whole the process. All of notes are seem to be exaggerated to build a linear blend based on the concept of being deeply weird. The only way to absolve its uncommon smell is wearing it on a highly ceremonial and formal dress. For casual, it sucks and too rude for official times and formal meetings.
Although it's so far from my mood, I think for those who can compromise, it's highly welcomed and adorable.

Longevity 8/10
Sillage 10/10

This one is okay. Smells nice, but not very distinctive. Nothing about it really catches me. I have since gotten some other evening frags that are much more interesting (such as La Nuit De L'homme), so I passed on my bottle of Zegna.

just chanced upon this today,had a test spray and loved it after 10 mins so grabbed it as the price had been slashed to £17 for a gift set.yes,I agree with the classy nature and sophistication you get with the scent.it's not screaming loud at u but at the same time love its subtlety.it does last long and yeah does stay close to the skin.the dry down I must admit is really similar to armani code-way too similar.
my only disappointment of the day was I left Debenhams thinking I had a 100ml bottle only to realise it was a 50ml one.Only the tester was!!!

My friend gave me this fragrance, and I was a bit hesitate to wear it, since previously I never could get along with Zegna perfumes. Then I tried it on my skin, surprisingly it develops so well, almost like Canali Style but a bit sour. So I have decided to like it, thanks to my friend!

This fragrance is elegance and class in a bottle. I find it similar to L'homme by YSL however, it's not as sweet and a bit fuller IMO. I describe describe this frag as sweet and somewhat creamy. in the beginning the scent's projection is pretty strong however that dries down after an hour or two and stays on the skin. i smell the frag on me for hours after application though it's projection may not be as strong as the first hour or so trust me it's there. zegna intenso is good for evening wear and intimate settings.

Bargained for a tester and liked it immediately. Yes there are vibes of Code, but the drydown is different, and this is more sophisticated and mature. Surprisingly, it doesn't last long on me, which is one drawback. Think I'll buy it again in the future...

Sillage : weaker than code
Longevity : 3 hours
Feeling : Rich
Feedback : fine
Recommendation : if you think you're old for Code, then you'll love this

Starts fresh, sweet and nice ... can see Armandi Code during its drydown and is following close by Boss Selection on base notes. Like Code and Selection starts better than finishes, and certainly would be, to me, THE alternative to 212 Sexy Man and its friends. Nice bottles by Zegna. I'm thinking now about this new one, Zegna Forte. Really nothing to do with Tokyo and, Issey Miyake Homme Intense ":¬O? I need to try this one again but so far I don't see not a single parallel ":¬).

A fresh aroma and fine woods, a little sophisticated, with a touch spicy, creamy and soft, seem to dominate their base notes printed with dry wood.

It is very suitable for formal meetings, is a sober aroma, not very suitable for dating. This fragrance stays on my skin for up to 8 hours.

This ones is almost 90% similar to the L'Eau D'issey Miyake Pour Homme Intense, specially the dry down, 99% similar.
As the name suggest, it is Intense version of the original and it last more than 5 hours on me, silliage is good and it is truly musculine fragrance.

It is clean, simple, masculine, low-toned but still noticeable and last a decent time on me. I get a very comfortable and mature man feeling with this one! Nice. I will give 7/10 for this one.

Another 'under the radar' scent. The freshness I smell in this is gourmandish. It smells like a sweet piece of candy then morphs into a white cake with rich vanilla frosting. I am almost piss'd at myself for pluggin' anybody onto this gem, but hot damn! this is good stuff.

i detect some woodsy and distinctive kicks to this one and musk musk musk

another good mens scent and high end good ingredients

this one makes me feel sophisticated and simply at the same time, is a very agreeable fragrance for the smell of the one who carries it, with good fastener and very balanced in his elements

excellent fragrance, very long-lasting

As someone already said, certainly floral and vanillic. Powdery even, a sweet though masculine fragrance, best suited to evenings and hot dates, not the workplace. The bottle suggests that this fragrance plays the chiaroscuro game, which it does, leaving one uncertain as to gravity/lightness of this EDT, and ultimately to its very purpose. I have it and use it occasionally for a change, no more than once a month.

I wear this around the office and it seems to get many compliments. Very nice smell to it, not a sharp smell, but strong enough to last most of the work day for me.

really nice lemony floral-vanillic aroma, similar to YSL homme and diesel fuel. Versatile, comfortable and manly.. a fragance to day or night, you can go wrong..

nothing to compare to code or tokyo, what happen with that noses.. =P

very geniune fragrance. outwardles masculine and sweet at the same time. unlike other fresh scents it stands out as seductive yet still clean.

Tried today and think it´s fresh and elegand. Five minutes after aplication I think it a little sweet and it reminds me tokyo by kenzo. At the end it becomes woody. Really a masculine, elegant and distinctive fragrance. I guess its better in winter or cool days. Not for teens.

it's a day by day fragrance... it's ok for an office, or for hanging out with some friends ;) But.. it's not so fresh and doesn't last 2 long...

I was looking for something new and came across Zegna Intenso by chance. It was so distinctive that I immediately liked it. It has a strong, complex scent that is very masculine, starting out lighter and then mellowing to a deeper more earthy/spicy tone. The base scent will last all day. I think it smells more mature and sensual than most of the more popular frangrances available today.

Hello.. I had Zegna Ducati but its almost finish. i can not find it anywhere. if someone who knows this cologne? please write me. thanks..

Excellent cologne I honestly think anyone would easily love this fragrance one of the few colognes I would approve a online buyer to purchase without even smelling it. I guarantee you will love this. Its comparable to Armani Code smells similiar.

a great scent. fresh, clean and light, yet it still brings lasting seduction to the table.

The name of the model above is DAVID GUILLO. I want to know the name of the model in the Z Zegna ad on the Ducati bike!!!

yeah is the best fragrance for men!
but my sister wanna know who is the male model in the pic can you tell me?

after all positive comments, i am going to seize the first chance to test it. :)
thanks for your comments.

While browsing Thierry Muglers new Ice Man at a local department store with the full intension of purchasing my favourite L'instant, by Guerlaine - I was mesmerised by Zegna's Intenso and bought it instead. It's so much lighter and fresher, suits me and is getting heaps of great comments and attention. Thanks!

I love it, the scent makes me feel fresh
and confident

just got me a bottle and i can tell you it realy does embody seduction. it is a very sensual scent. my girlfriend loves it.
