I am disappointed to report that I had to return my Givenchy Intense perfume. Unfortunately, the plastic sprayer part on the top of the bottle proved to be cracked. While I am thinking it was most likely a result of shipping, I had it replaced by the store twice and those bottles were damaged as well. I did not want to give up my wonderful fragrance, but I was worried that the crack would grow with use and render the spraying mechanism unworkable. Bad bottle design maybe.
The same fragrance was no longer available at ULTA, so I traded it in for Stella by Stella McCartney. I love this perfume! It is so fresh and floral, with a heavy emphasis on roses. Delicious! The fragrance does not seem as complex as some others I have loved, but sometimes simple is best. My husband really likes this and I have found that it is quite long lasting. Highly recommended!
I know also that Stella McCartney as a brand is completely animal friendly, which means no animal ingredients or animal testing. The packaging was green, not the color, but containing post consumer recycled content in the box. Which of course I recycled! A feel good product that smells exquisite.
In conclusion, although this fragrance may not have been my first choice, it is a lovely addition to my perfume wardrobe.
