Fragrance World Bavaria Man Intense Eau de Parfum
A bold, spicy-leathery men's scent with tobacco and rum up top, leather and tuberose in the heart, and a tonka-benzoin base.
Inspired by Bvlgari Man in Black
Fragrance World Bavaria Man Intense Eau de Parfum is a bold, oriental-spicy men's fragrance, opening with tobacco, rum and warm spices for an intense, confident first impression that doesn't ease you in gently.
What does Bavaria Man Intense smell like?
The heart moves into leather, iris and tuberose, an unusual but effective combination that adds both edge and a touch of soft floral depth to the smoky tobacco opening. It settles into a rich base of tonka bean, benzoin and guaiac wood, giving the fragrance a warm, slightly sweet, woody finish that suits its bold character throughout the whole wear.
- Top notes: tobacco, rum, spices
- Heart notes: leather, iris, tuberose
- Base notes: tonka bean, benzoin, guaiac wood
Performance and when to wear it

Who is it for?
