The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020 by Lancôme, Idôle L'Intense is a Chypre Floral fragrance created by perfumers Shyamala Maisondieu, Adriana Medina-Baez, and Nadège Le Garlantezec. The composition opens with bitter orange and mandarin for a fresh citrus lift before transitioning into the heart of Turkish rose, Grasse rose, and jasmine sambac. These floral notes create a rich blend that is further enhanced by the warmth of musk and patchouli in the base, grounding the scent with earthy depth.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays for a balanced scent that develops over time. The top notes will fade within an hour, but the warm base notes will last throughout the evening.
