Phantom Intense: the cyborg lavender plunges into the night Phantom Intense heightens the metallic-gourmand duality of the saga: a frosted orange cardamom burst opens, a heart of vivid lavender coated with rum and iced orange blossom pulses, then a base of black vanilla, burning cedar and an amber accord wraps the skin in a futuristic aura.
Top notes
The house announces an opening on frosted orange blossom, lemon and cardamom, an accord that pairs citrus freshness and a white floral facet with a hint of green spice.
Heart notes
According to the house, the heart brings together lavender, clary sage and rum absolute, a classic aromatic pairing of the men's line heightened by an amber-liqueur-like note.
Base notes
The base combines tonka bean, moss and cedar, a gourmand and woody foundation that the house describes as the anchor of the accord. Wikiparfum reports a similar breakdown, placing lavender in the top notes alongside orange blossom, lemon and cardamom; clary sage and rum form the heart, while vanilla, cedar and moss make up the base.
What the label declares
The label lists Limonene, a molecule that signs the top citrus, as well as Linalool and Geraniol, molecules present in both lavender and clary sage. Coumarin, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Farnesol, Citronellol, Benzyl Salicylate, Citral and Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane are also listed. Three colorants are declared: CI 60730 (Ext. Violet 2), CI 19140 (Yellow 5) and CI 17200 (Red 33).
