I have the Parfum. Every time I wear it I like it more. I have a couple hundred fragrances in my collection, and it has found its way into my top 10 favorite cold weather scents. I’ve been debating whether or not to buy Intense. This video helps.
@@jimlittle5769 I have both as well I wouldn’t be mad if you chose Dior parfum, but I think bdc parfum is more wearable, more mass appealing. Dior parfum is closer to niche
@@jbthetestgod BDC Parfum is absolutely more versatile, any season any occasion. Top notch. If I was told I could only have one fragrance forever, it would be BDC Parfum.
As an older gent, I like both, but prefer the parfum version on cold Winter days. I am wearing the parfum version now. One or two sprays is all you need . . . this is powerful ! Thanks for sharing ;)
@@sonkullanc8316 Yes, it's very expensive, but you may be able to pull it off for special occasions. However, it is definitely not something that I would wear every day.
I totally agree with you 💯.. I would choose DHI instead of parfum, the parfum version has a load leather in it makes a headache to me... Excellent review Lady 👏👏👏👏
Wow, didn't expect this review to just bang! Dear Erica, I might not have watched numerous numbers of your vids, but I can definetely say that this is one of your best productions. The overall quality is just there-your knowledge of the two fragrances, your perfect articulation and the way you deliver your opinion, and on top of it all; your passion can be felt throughout each word you've spoken! I can feel your love on these two, and just like you, I also can't deny the soft addiction of DHI: It is smooth and refined; it is sensual, elegant, and sophisticated-indeed. I'm subscribed!
I love the parfum, to me is the best designer fragrance ever. But the smell of dior homme intense is something out of this world. I enjoy so much smelling it that i bought 2 bottles, one to spray when i go out and one to spray in the house when i'm alone🤣
Thank you, Erica. Very useful review. I love DH Intense, already on my wishlist. But, I "almost" blind bought it the DH Parfum the other day. Now, when I come to think about it, I will leave it for later and go for DH Intense. Very much appreciated your video. Plus, the fact that it has the perfect length, is also a big plus for me.
Excellent review. I think both perfume and intense are very very similar as they have the same DNA 🧬 . Difference is potency and strength. Intense is creamy and smooth but perfume is hard and in your face. I couldn’t justify buying both, so I bought the perfume beginning of 2025 because it just got discontinued and replaced with another perfume.
Erica. I had about a 10 frag rotation going. I always come back to Nasomatto Pardon. In the cold here in Austin, Ive been going all out in Pardon, Iommi, and Via Cavour. When I say cold, it is 20s and 30s now. If you havent tried Pardon, this is the definition of class. On first sniffs you will wonder what is going on. The cocoa plus floral plus cinnamon is so smooth and pleasing. I thought the cinnamon would be like cinnamon roll gourmand. It is the essence of cinnamon like a deep soft zing effect. I think James Bond would rock Pardon.
hey beautiful,......i have all 3 the og, intense and parfum, and i absolutely love them all . yes im an iris fan boy i also have all the givenchy gentlemens and pradas edt and edp intense as well as valentino uomo intense , i absolutely favor dior homme intense out of all of them .
Erica, I'd like to know what you think of the new Dior Homme Parfum reformulation. Would you re-do this video comparing Dior Homme Intense versus the new Homme Parfum? DF
I bought the perfume for $194 ,I was going to return it but will give it more time ,it’s kinda heavy but I feel it very elegant,I’m sure in winter will smell way better
I am like other a Big fan of DHI and was looking DHP expectibg it to be better than DHI but it os not in my opinion they are quite different and your explanation is spot on . I find the parfum bit too much too .
I bought both a week ago. Still need to wear them and try them. Still summer here by me so I have to wait. But for now on paper and skin.. they are both good the same but also so different. Definitely seems like the parfum can give headaches way faster than the intense.
parfume is a special fragrance...there is nothing like that in universe. dh intense is realy cool fragrance but there are a lot of fragrances like it, and even better! for example prada lhomme intense is way better iris and versitale fragrance then dh intense..prada is the best for me..second is valentino uomo intense and the third is dior homme intense.even ginevchy edp is realy strong alternative for dhi. parfume is real niche fragrance and even in niches no niche fragrance is like it. its pure uniquness and masterpiece.
To me DHI is a little softer, cozier and you fell more of a powdery/cocoa effect. VUI is slightly stronger, sweeter with a mixed powdery/creamy feel. The sweetnes from the vanilla is a little more prominent, ther is a some initial freshness given by the mandarin orange, and the main difference is the suede which gives it a more mascoline and (to me) interesting smell.
I own & love both DHI & DHP. My first bottle of DHP I still have from 6 years ago. I rarely wear it, but it is arguably the best quality designer ever made that can hold it's on against many niche. It is IMHO, superior to DHI in almost every way. However, DHI I wear Much more often, and I'm on my 2nd bottle within 10 years. It is more versatile and wearable. Its not a manly man scent. More modern well dressed man; a woman could easily pull it off. With that being said, if you live in an area with longer colder winter weather, you might get more wears out of DHP. If your like me (I live in the south), DHI might work better for you.
I got the Parfum today, got it because it's rare and some how it's available on our Duty Frees. it's very good and i feel like it will grow on me but i the first impression i got from DHI was better, and Original is also still available in my country so contemplating if i should get DHI or Original or just get both of them lol (I'm addicted)
DHI is just perfect! I bought DHP out of hype and blind bought it because it was hard to find. If I had the opportunity to try first, i would've never bought it.
it gave me a same vibe of Reflection 45 by Amouage. I dont say the same scent but it realy remained me Reflection 45. if you have a reflection 45 try it. I have both of them so it is not just a felling or one time smelling!
Dior Homme Intense it's a masterpiece, a very unique fragrance, elegant at all. It's one of the most praised in my collection, along with Le Male Le Parfum.
I have both. Intense is overall better for me. Intense is stronger with more longevity and projection. Parfum is a little richer, but is weaker in comparison.
I love the Dior Homme line and own all…except the Parfum- I got rid of it pretty quickly. The rose/oud combo wasn’t good for me. Plus, there was never a time that I could wear the Parfum, and not the Intense, but plenty of times that I could wear Intense and definitely not the Parfum. Intense is way better. Actually, The Original is my favorite!
@@ZeroPurpleRansom if you like iris (powdery) than I’d recommend either Dior Homme Original (EDT) or Intense (EDP). I like the original because it has iris and is very versatile. If you don’t like the iris, Dior Homme 2020. (EDT) is also a great scent…
My favorite is the original homme why was it reformulated ? It was already perfect I don’t like the new homme and why is it only available in Europe? I need answers 😂
DHP is definitely stronger and way more complete than DHI, I give a huge edge to DHP as a perfumer myself in terms of complexity and power, the intense is no slouch but lags behind by a dime, the leather on the intense is more delicate than DHP that is more like a cuir de Russie, but overall the oud animalic notes, the overall blend of everything smells perfect, the best designer fragrance I’ve ever had the pleasure to smell, DHP is a masterpiece 11/10
I got a 10ml decant of Parfum and honestly i get nothing of the usual description people give it. Nothing animalic, nothing leathery, slightly rosy Iris. At this point im considering that i've been scammed and i've been sold Dior Homme Intense and not the Parfum.
Dior homme parfum rugged? Personally to me it is the best designer fragrance ever made. You might get fragrances similar to intense but none close to parfum
Good take on these two. The original is HoF worthy, although I could live without the orange note. Intense is too nice, unobtrusive and loath to intrude/offend [ie Wussy]. Intense is all too typical of the under-performing Designer segment.
Lipsticky-iris = manly & masculine? This is the most faminine perfume in my collection. It remind me of a ladies makeup back in the day Dont get me wrong, i love it. Just that i do not think its a masculine scent
Dior homme intense (old batches) are wayyy better than dior homme parfum. But the new dior homme intense (reformulation) is bad compared to dior homme parfum. But overall i dont like leather and dior homme parfum has too much leather for my liking

buy it. i hav both. love both. parfum better but intense more usable
What do you suggest for summer?
@@mostafaezzat830Prada lhomme
I have both and I can surely say these two are the pinnacle of Mens designer fragrance.
Have both and prefer intense as well. So elegant and intoxicating!
New or old bottle?
where did you find the parfum? i cant find it anywhere
@@ErnestoP6 I got it from fragrancebuy
@@ErnestoP6DH Parfum discontinued
Have and love both, but Dior Homme Parfum is, IMO, THE best designer fragrance there is.
Tied with BDC parfum imo
@@jbthetestgod I have BDC Parfum just slightly behind DHP. Both masterpieces.

What do you think can a 20yo can use parfum Version?
@@sonkullanc8316 Yes, it's very expensive, but you may be able to pull it off for special occasions. However, it is definitely not something that I would wear every day.
For the 2 sprays, where do you spray it, on your neck or on your clothes?
Both are very similar, but as my next perfume will be more for spring I'm going for DH Intense
@ a light spray on either side of your neck or wrist
I totally agree with you 💯.. I would choose DHI instead of parfum, the parfum version has a load leather in it makes a headache to me... Excellent review Lady 👏👏👏👏

Erica was right on time with this video! I was talking to a friend about picking me up a bottle of the Parfum overseas… maybe I need both 🤔
Such a great explanation Erica. You nailed it. Great descriptors and comparison. 💪🙌
I love the parfum, to me is the best designer fragrance ever. But the smell of dior homme intense is something out of this world. I enjoy so much smelling it that i bought 2 bottles, one to spray when i go out and one to spray in the house when i'm alone🤣
I’m one of those that owns both and I like both equally they are both 10/10 for me
Like always a great take.
I’ve been trying to get Dior Parfum.
Thank you, Erica. Very useful review. I love DH Intense, already on my wishlist. But, I "almost" blind bought it the DH Parfum the other day. Now, when I come to think about it, I will leave it for later and go for DH Intense. Very much appreciated your video. Plus, the fact that it has the perfect length, is also a big plus for me.
I have the parfum and I love it,I was hesitant to buy the intense but not anymore,I was waiting this vid thanks Erica.
Parfum was so good I bought a back a couple weeks later.
One of the very few frags I have a backup of. Took me over a year to get my first bottle, and as soon as I tried it, went hunting for a backup.
Parfum is my all time favorite fragrance. Love that lipstick iris note.
But I agree with Erica that lipstick effect with DHI is super amazing. However, DHP hands down the best.
I have both as well as the Original! I got my Intense from Amazon, no problem!😎 I like all 3 with Parfum being my fav!
I own both, and like the Parfum a good deal more. Probably my favorite fragrance right now.

Good review but dunno how you can possibly call DHI versatile
The genuine reaction of tossing back your head and rolling your eyes back while smelling the fragrance strip is just priceless. Thanks for the review.
nice review miss

You are a very wise woman picking the well put together man over the bad boy i see. Love the comparison you made between these two ❤️.
Thank you for the side by side review! I'll definitely pick the Parfum because i want to be complimented by men, not women 😅
One of my top 5 is Dior Homme Intense. Both are great but man if you can get Dior Homme Intense, it is worth it.
Erica, I'd like to know what you think of the new Dior Homme Parfum reformulation. Would you re-do this video comparing Dior Homme Intense versus the new Homme Parfum?
DF
I wear the Parfume version and I get stopped by men all the time. So many compliments 🥰
I have the Intense and love it. Will have to find the Parfume. Sounds very interesting.
I own both and they are fire!
Very good review , we thank you !!!
I'd like to see DIor Homme Sport in the comparison too. Oh, well, great video as always!
Sport smells nothing like these, completely different fragrance.
I bought the perfume for $194 ,I was going to return it but will give it more time ,it’s kinda heavy but I feel it very elegant,I’m sure in winter will smell way better
Hello dear Erica, Great review as always, I do have the perfume, 10/10,keep it up. Wishing you all Happiness prosperity. Have a one.cheers 🎉❤❤
I am like other a Big fan of DHI and was looking DHP expectibg it to be better than DHI but it os not in my opinion they are quite different and your explanation is spot on . I find the parfum bit too much too .
Your review is exquisite. Thank you so much.
Parfum is my all time favorite fragrance. Love that lipstick iris note. It is a must have for any mans fragrance collection.
You’ve must’ve never tried Layton exclusif lol jk. Parfum is definitely one of my favs
New version of Intense is missing a note. I actually layer both of these frags together lol
I bought both a week ago. Still need to wear them and try them. Still summer here by me so I have to wait. But for now on paper and skin.. they are both good the same but also so different.
Definitely seems like the parfum can give headaches way faster than the intense.
I very much agree with your whole assessment. I’m own both, but Parfum feels way more specific in its use.
For the Love of Erica Dior Homme!! 😅❤🙌

its pure uniquness and masterpiece.
exactly
What differences do you get between the valentino uomo intense and and dior homme intense seeing as they are often compared?
To me DHI is a little softer, cozier and you fell more of a powdery/cocoa effect. VUI is slightly stronger, sweeter with a mixed powdery/creamy feel. The sweetnes from the vanilla is a little more prominent, ther is a some initial freshness given by the mandarin orange, and the main difference is the suede which gives it a more mascoline and (to me) interesting smell.
Great video. Intense is my favorite. Blessings, thanx.
Parfum hands down the King of all designer.
I got Parfum on the Dior site, coming today. 😅
Yes Intense is better! I agree with you little lady!!
Little lady 😂
😂😂😂😂

should ı get Dior homme parfum or intense instead of hugo boss absolu ?
I just used up my last pre-2020 Parfum. Is it worth getting a 2024 bottle (w/the embossed bee)
Where is the best place to get the perfum ? also I heard the intense was discontinued, how true is this
I sold my Intense after a couple of wears. It was too musty for my taste.
Hello, is there a performance difference between Dior Homme Intense and Parfum?
Perfection is all i have to say about this video!! Well done my lady! Just a comment no facts! If only tho!! Lol
DHI is just perfect! I bought DHP out of hype and blind bought it because it was hard to find. If I had the opportunity to try first, i would've never bought it.
Agreed intense much better no question

And why ?

I will definitely pick Dior homme parfum cause I don’t like ires scent in intense
Do you like Valentino uomo intense?
The animalic thing you identified into the Parfum version is the Rose. You’re welcome 😊.
It's definitely the leather and oud.
hey Erica, what batch of dior parfum you have? or more easily to tell, 2.5oz or new 3oz?
2.5oz easy to see different with black plastic collar under the cap
I like intense and homme edt. Can’t get hold of the parfum.
Dior Homme Intense is pretty special👌
Agreed. DHI is so hard to beat.
Good! Because I've only ever had Intense! LOL. And really love it.
I have both. Intense is overall better for me. Intense is stronger with more longevity and projection. Parfum is a little richer, but is weaker in comparison.
Love my DHI! Gotta say i love my VUI a little more tho ;)
i have vui its so amazing. should i buy dhi or dhp?
yes buy both. i have all 3. def get prada l'homme intense too. so beautiful
im in love
I have both. And their clones dupes twists. Love it all.

Intense masterpiece
I have the intense
I’m gonna get the perfume
Can't imagine wearing DHI 'year round, day or night'. Not touching DHI when it's warm or hot.
My favorite is the original homme why was it reformulated ? It was already perfect I don’t like the new homme and why is it only available in Europe? I need answers 😂
Because Europe is superior

Looking Good 😉
Intense is a masterpiece simple as🔥🔥🔥
Dior homme parfums heard million times, but can't manage to get 1. afraid to purchase online a fake bottle.😮💨.
Fragbuy has had it available for a couple months. Still does
@jimlittle5769 most of the website only ship to US and Canada. I lived in Australia
This is worn in summer?
I like the Dior homme Parfum but everyone who smells it hates it.
Fragrancebuyca has dior homme parfum get it before its gone👀
Where do we buy Homme perfume? Stores only carry Eau de Toilette
Maxaroma ❤️
DHP definitely has oud...not the new one from 2025, but the one being compared to DHI in this video.
The best parfum on the market.
