I have Fougère Royal and absolutely love it. So much quality in it. I haven't Cologne Intense though, but very curious to try it.

Can't believe I haven't smelled Fougère Royale yet. As a fan of the genre, I need to smell the OG ASAP, ugh. Thanks for your great take as always, fam. Keep up the great work. =]

Very informative presentations! I have Fougere Royale and I Absolutely love this stuff and it is becoming my favorite cold weather scent. You described it perfectly and the price I paid was under $63 US dollars and the quality of this juice is simply Amazing. To me Royale is class in a bottle with a barbershop vibe and it does remind me of vintage Safari by Ralph Lauren which I have and is another of my favorites. I was going to try Cologne Intense and now have a much better perspective after watching your review. Keep up the Outstanding videos. All the best.

I do have appreciation for the old school, but in this case I would steer towards Pino Silvestre and spend the difference on a fine Irish dram. That is a legitimately pimp wallpaper, BTW. Thumbs up just for that.

i got a sample of the cologne intense and smells better on paper than on my skin where it smells like hay, straw and grassy so don't know what's going on there unfortunately not for me and in my opinion not like eau sauvage which is a staple for me

Always see these two at Neiman but just keep passing by because they are displayed beside MFK's and Creed that usually takes all my attention whenever I do sniffing test. Will check this the next time.

I have yet to try the Cologne Intense but love Fougere Royale. It definitely takes a manly man to pull this one off. Very similar to Braken Man but better when comparing the price points. This has that barbershop vibe I enjoy so much. Try Armaf Black Onyx. I prefer it to Rive Gauche.

OK, so.....I just came over from Sebastian's Smelling Great review of these. Like Sebastian, Mr. Smelly gives no mention of the significant portion of reviewers who are utterly disgusted by Cologne Intense. Go read the Fragrantica reviews. "Sour milk" doesn't sound like "refined, elegant" to me. When I tell people Chanel Egoiste sucks and smells like an ash tray, I also emphasize that my opinion is much in the minority because most people seem to love it. Fougere Royale 2010 is fantastic. But don't take my word for it.

Wish I had paid more attention the the Fragrantica reviews than this video. This Houbigant Cologne Intense is disgusting. It's extremely disappointing to have wasted money on this and shocking that the makers of Houbigant Fougere Royale could create something this awful.
