Dior Homme Intense is one of the most seductive and sophisticated men's fragrances ever created. Rich, warm, and deeply masculine, it has captivated fragrance lovers around the world with its unique blend of iris, lavender, and leather. But at a premium price point, it remains out of reach for everyday wear for most men.
Until now.
Introducing Arabella London No 5 — the finest Dior Homme Intense inspired fragrance in the UK. Oil-based, long-lasting, and a generous 100ml. The same iconic depth and sophistication. A fraction of the price. And a formula engineered to last all day and well into the night.
Oil-Based: A Formula That Outperforms
Arabella London No 5 is an oil-based perfume, and the difference is felt the moment it touches your skin. Unlike conventional alcohol-based fragrances that evaporate quickly, the oil base clings to the skin, develops with your natural body heat, and releases the fragrance slowly and powerfully throughout the day.
The result is a scent that is richer, deeper, and far more long-lasting than anything you will find in a standard spray bottle. This is why fragrance connoisseurs have always preferred oil-based formulas — and why Arabella London No 5 delivers an experience that rivals fragrances costing many times the price.
15-Hour Longevity: Guaranteed
Arabella London No 5 delivers a minimum of 15 hours of continuous wear on the skin. Apply it in the morning and it will still be with you when you return home in the evening. Apply it before a night out and it will last until the early hours.
No top-ups. No reapplication. No fading. Just 15 hours of one of the most captivating men's scents ever created, guaranteed.
The Scent: Rich, Warm and Deeply Masculine
Arabella London No 5 captures the full, iconic scent profile of Dior Homme Intense with remarkable precision — every note, every layer, every dimension of the fragrance that has made it one of the most admired men's perfumes in the world.
Top Notes: Fresh Citrus and Vibrant Spices
The fragrance opens with a burst of fresh citrus and vibrant spices — clean, energising, and immediately distinctive. This is the opening that announces your presence the moment you walk into a room.
Heart Notes: Florals and Cocoa
As the opening settles, the heart reveals a beautifully unique combination of delicate florals and rich cocoa. This is the signature of Dior Homme Intense — the unexpected warmth of cocoa wrapped in soft florals, creating a depth and sensuality that is utterly irresistible.
Base Notes: Woods, Amber and Leather
A warm, rich, enduring base of woods, amber, and leather anchors the fragrance and ensures it lasts. The woods bring clean warmth, the amber adds golden depth, and the leather creates a sophisticated, masculine finish that lingers powerfully for hours.
A Generous 100ml: Exceptional Value
Arabella London No 5 comes in a full, generous 100ml bottle — a proper, premium-sized fragrance that will last months of regular daily wear. And because the oil-based formula is more concentrated than conventional alcohol-based perfumes, a little goes a very long way.
The Best Dior Homme Intense Dupe in the UK
There are many fragrances that claim to be inspired by Dior Homme Intense. Most fall short — capturing only a surface-level similarity that fades quickly and bears little resemblance to the original after an hour on the skin. Arabella London No 5 is different. The scent profile is precise, the oil-based formula ensures the fragrance develops and lasts exactly as it should, and the 15-hour longevity guarantee means you can wear it with complete confidence every single day.
When to Wear It
- Evening occasions — rich, warm, and powerfully seductive
- Date nights — deeply masculine and utterly captivating
- Business meetings — sophisticated and commanding
- Special occasions — refined enough for weddings and formal events
- Winter wear — the warm, rich base notes come alive in cooler temperatures
How to Apply for Maximum Impact
- Pulse points — wrists, neck, under the ears, and base of the throat
- Less is more — one or two sprays is all you need for 15 hours of wear
- After showering — apply to clean, slightly warm skin for maximum longevity
- Do not rub — allow the oil to settle naturally for the best scent development
