Lancome · Idôle

Lancôme Idôle L'Intense is an intense eau de parfum for women from the Idôle collection, in a 75 ml bottle. Lancôme places it in the chypre floral family: a luminous rose and jasmine, tied together by a clean accord and warmed with vanilla. Lancôme says it retains the signature of Idôle Le Parfum, with a clean accord that is stronger than ever.

What it smells like

• Top notes: Isparta rose and jasmine. The flowers are noticeable from the first sprays.
• Heart notes: a "clean" chypre accord, meaning a sensation of cleanliness and radiance, "clean & glow", as Lancôme calls it.
• Base notes: cedarwood and Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, which linger closest to the skin.

The brand says that rose, jasmine and the "clean & glow" accord are the pillars of Idôle, and in L'Intense they become more sensual. The result is a warm floral, with a touch of vanilla.

How to apply it

1. Apply the perfume after a shower, to clean and well-moisturized skin.
2. Choose pulse points: the wrists, the base of the neck, the crook of the elbow.
3. Hold the bottle a few centimeters from the skin, so that the spray is even.
4. Let the perfume dry on its own, without rubbing the skin.
5. Being an intense eau de parfum, start with one or two sprays and add more only if you feel the need.
