Intoxicated by By Kilian is a mesmerizing Oriental Spicy fragrance, crafted for both women and men. Launched in 2014, this alluring scent was created by master perfumer Calice Becker. Intoxicated is a decadent and rich fragrance that weaves together the warmth of spices, the deep richness of coffee, and sweet gourmand notes. It evokes a sense of indulgence, mystery, and sophistication, making it a perfect choice for those who enjoy bold, sweet, and spicy fragrances with a luxurious feel.
The fragrance opens with a captivating blend of invigorating cardamom and rich, dark coffee, immediately drawing the senses into a world of warmth and depth. The subtle brightness of bergamot and the airy, slightly metallic touch of aldehydes add a fresh contrast to the spicy opening, creating a complex and engaging introduction.
As the fragrance develops, the heart reveals a beautifully spiced combination of nutmeg and cinnamon, adding to the richness of the composition. The smoky, earthy note of tobacco deepens the warmth, while ginger adds a zesty sharpness and the floral freshness of geranium balances the spicy intensity. This middle phase introduces a dynamic contrast between sweet and spicy, making the fragrance even more intriguing.
The base of Intoxicated is where its gourmand side truly shines. The sweet and indulgent notes of caramel, vanilla, and creamy mocha create a deliciously warm and inviting foundation. These are enriched by the smooth sweetness of marshmallow and sugar, while the resinous depth of balsam fir and the earthy, woody presence of patchouli provide balance. The inclusion of coumarin adds a slightly nutty, hay-like undertone, creating a long-lasting, enveloping finish that is both comforting and luxurious. Intoxicated is the ultimate fragrance for those who enjoy the perfect blend of sweetness, spice, and warmth, making it ideal for cooler seasons or evening wear.
