From the brand - "Number One Intense is a generous bouquet of white flowers, tuberose at the forefront, on a bed of sandalwood and animalic notes that give it remarkable sillage. It was with this perfume that Patricia de Nicolaï received the International Prize for Best Perfumer, a prestigious distinction for the profession."
Fragrantica - "This is a deluxe tuberose fragrance with a bit of old fashioned thrown in. It is an elegant floral with hints of amber and sandalwood emerging toward the end. If you love tuberose, this one is a winner."
Fragrantica - "After a month this has become one of my favs from this House and a solid reference point on Galbanum. The turning point came when I bought Le Sillage Blanc and both fragrances are just awesome in terms of ingredients, sillage, versatility. I was not wrong as Number One Intense does take a little bit of knowing."
Fragrantica - "An elegant, high-quality white floral scent, NOI is nicely-balanced, its more mellow second act making for a more wearable scent overall. Personally, I would prefer a more sustained intensity and/or a more mossy, prominent chypre base, but NOI is a ladylike beauty. "
Fragrantica - "Number One Intense is the exact opposite of wearing Lululemon and Golden Gooses and slurping giant iced lattes in a Range Rover. It's a kind of rich lady I'm not even sure exists anymore."
