French niche line Parfums de Nicolaï has launched Néroli Intense, a new floral fragrance.
Neroli Intense highlights Patricia de Nicolai’s passion for the orange flower. She has mastered the use of the note and the different olfactory properties of its essence and its absolute. Petitgrain Bigarade and Pittosporum flower underline the white flower facet of the fragrance. Slightly fruity and aqueous fresh notes bring a harmonious vibration. Beeswax absolute and a hint of patchouli and white musk offer a wonderful tenacity that remains refined and chic.
Additional notes include mandarin and tarragon.
Parfums de Nicolaï Néroli Intense is available now at Twisted Lily, in 30 ($62) and 100 ($175) ml.

Ooo, sounds perfect!
I agree!
I am so behind…need to get this *and* Cap Neroli.
I feel the same way, honestly.
Cap Neroli startled me at first. I thought I smelled ashtray. Ieww. But now I love it! This new one sounds like a must have too!
Cap Neroli is a bracing blast of citrus and neroli, and is not for the faint of heart. But it’s spectacular. I am looking forward to trying this new Neroli scent. I can’t think of one “bad” PdN scent. I’m loving Number One Intense, Odalisque, Juste En Rive, and L’Eau Mixte. I just wish they’d bring back Le Temps…
Can’t forgive the reformulation & subsequent discontinuation of Le Temps d’Une Fete, which I bought in its first incarnation more years ago than I care to remember in a tiny shop somewhere in South Kensington which I found completely by accident. Bought the reformulation many years later in their Fulham Road shop – it was lovely, but not a patch on the original in my humble opinion.
PdN has discontinued many fragrances I loved, so I feel your pain!
Much loved fragrances being discontinued is the story of my perfume life!
Just picked up samples of Neroli Intense and Cap Neroli this week. It’s possible that I may have misread the earlier comment about Cap Neroli as the “Armie Hammer of fragrances” as something like “will people think of Armie Hammer when they smell you.” And I’d probably be okay with that.
Cap Neroli (so far) seems pretty intense in itself. Don’t know how much more intense Neroli Intense is going to get!
“… people will think of …,” I mean. Erf.
