Now Intense by RAVE

Not even close to what I expected. Smells like a dry martini with two frozen olives. Haha, it’s weird.

I love it. It’s super versatile, has a masculine vibe, and doesn’t feel juvenile. Totally recommended.

The box is gorgeous, with shiny blue fabric wrapping the bottle, which is protected in plastic and rubber with a stained-glass design. The liquid is yellowish with suspended particles, which doesn’t give me the best vibe, though it has an expiration date of 03/24 and lasts until 2029, code M11-240201900, and arrived perfectly sealed from a trusted supplier. Upon smelling it, it’s 100% masculine and transports me to an era when men’s perfumes smelled fresh and clean. It smells like a ranch foreman who made so much money he no longer uses horses, but trucks with GPS and drones for the cattle. It also reminds me of old-time barbershops with straight razors and scissors, where deals were struck away from ladies, sitting in reclining chairs like the 1950s, heavy as a ton. Despite its freshness, it requires a face hardened by hard work, with a strong gaze and pale skin. It’s not for glass-knuckle kids who only know how to play Minecraft. It’s ideal for meeting in-laws and saying without hesitation: ‘family, I’ve come to participate in the wedding date,’ so the father-in-law grits his teeth and the mother-in-law knows her daughter is in good hands. Ladies and gentlemen, this perfume is for warm climates or tense environments where you need to project security. If you like men’s perfumes that smell like vanilla dessert, chocolate, sweets, and frost like Victoria Secret Splash, this isn’t for you.

Honestly, it was a pleasant surprise. The opening is a strong, zesty orange, then seconds later comes the cucumber and watermelon, quite pleasant and fresh. As time passes, sage emerges, staying fresh. After an hour, it becomes more woody, still fresh but with a slightly formal wood touch. Its projection is consistent, medium intensity but constant for 4 hours, with a 2-hour discrete personal bubble. Easy to wear, lasts 6 hours total. In my case, totally recommended. It reminds me of Polo Blue mixed with a Nautica infused with testosterone; it reminds me of those two, 10/10.

I bought it because I read it was similar to Polo Blue Edt, but for me, nothing alike; based on its notes, I expected something fresher, and it’s not like that; it’s more on the sweet side. No complaints about projection and performance; it lasts quite a while. I think it can be better utilized in cool weather, mainly at night.

Today I received this Rave Now Intense by Lattafa. I was worried because it was a blind buy; many reviewers on YouTube say it’s ugly, smells like insecticide, etc. To my surprise, it’s a fresh fragrance, nothing complicated, similar to Polo Blue Edt. I haven’t tested its performance yet since I just received it today, but I’ll update this comment after using it for a few days. For now, okay, with three BBBs.

Hello, my good friend @Abgume, nice to know you like my reviews. It’s a pleasure to share my experiences with you. I hope you enjoy Rave Now Intense as much as I did. As I mentioned, maybe it’s not such a modern or youthful scent, but you’ll see that you’ll feel super masculine, secure, sober, and clean. Sending you a strong hug. Keep enjoying fragrances.

Happy 2024, friend. Sending you my best wishes for health, work, and well-being for you and your family. It’s clear you’re a good person with great thoughts. Thanks for the greeting and for sharing your olfactory experiences. At the end of the year, I used Lattafa’s Ameer al Oudh (not the Intense) and it was a treat. My wife complained because I received compliments from the hostess and a friend, but I loved it; it’s fantastic for this season. A big hug, always have a good life.

It’s a gem, a bomb in projection and longevity. A blend of sandalwood, sage, and fruits, exquisite. On clothes, it lasts days; on skin, hours, even after showering. Perfect for nights, cool climates, or open spaces. It doesn’t fatigue at all. Buy without regrets. 100% recommended!

Dear @jerry7474, it’s a pleasure to know you liked my review. The truth is, Rave Now Intense is definitely worth it. Maybe it’s not the great wonder, but it works excellently to feel sober and clean.

I read everything, and we agree on many points. Now it’s just left to enjoy this little gem. I’m leaving wishing you a year full of success and blessings. Strong hug and we’ll keep sharing perfumes here.

Rave Now Intense: A rustic and elegant aroma that mixes opaque seriousness with formality without losing luxury. It’s sensible, precise, and good-tasting. You can sense its Atlantic navy blue, almost black and imposing influence, with refined woods that break through the leather and a touch of talc in its best interpretation. It’s the scent of someone with cultural level, for a seductive and sophisticated personality. It’s not for everyone; it requires a virile, successful, and masculine man to wear it with congruence. It’s a hit: clean, fresh, manly, elegant, and somber. A beauty that floats for accomplished men who generate attraction. Courtesy of Goné Valo. Excellent recommendation, I was pleased. Scent: 10. Projection: Good in my case, in cold weather a little over 2 hours. Longevity: 8 hours. Recommended.

Spiced pineapple fragrance with soapy notes that make it slightly mature. On my skin, it projects for half an hour and lasts at most four hours. Totally dispensable.
