Etienne Aigner No 1 Intense Pour Homme Eau de Toilette 100ml
Etienne Aigner No 1 Intense Pour Homme Eau de Toilette is a bold, commanding fragrance from the woody spicy family. Vibrant citrus and aromatic spices open with immediate presence, before a rich, resinous heart settles into a deep, long-lasting woody base. A signature scent built for those who leave an impression.

Why It Works
The opening citrus-spice accord creates immediate impact without being overwhelming, while the lavender-nutmeg heart adds a classic aromatic quality that keeps the fragrance wearable. The base — cedarwood, vetiver, patchouli, tonka bean, and leather — is where No 1 Intense earns its name: rich, tenacious, and deeply satisfying. The interplay between the sweet tonka and dry vetiver gives it a modern edge that elevates it beyond a standard woody spicy.
