About
About this formula
This is our faithful reconstruction of the Homme Intense profile, a woody composition in the Dior idiom. Expect lavender, fresh citrus-lavender and black pepper up top, a core of powdery violet, violet orris, nutmeg and radiant jasmine, and a long cedar amber, vetiver, oakmoss, warm musk and oud base.
The reconstruction is built on the materials that actually drive the profile — not a vague impression, but the specific aroma chemicals and naturals that recreate its texture, projection and evolution on skin.
This is a intermediate-level build of 18 materials; we recommend macerating the concentrate and diluting to roughly 20% for a wearable EDP. The palette is built around accessible materials so you can source everything without hunting for obscure specialties.
Everything you need to make it is included: the exact materials and percentages, gram-per-100g conversions for any batch size, maceration advice and IFRA notes.
Whether you are studying the genre or simply want a faithful version to wear, this is a dependable, repeatable formula you can return to batch after batch.

Questions
Frequently asked
What skill level does the Homme Intense formula need?+
This formula is rated intermediate. It uses 18 materials and comes with step-by-step maceration and dilution guidance, so it suits makers comfortable with weighing materials on a precision scale. Every material is listed with its CAS number so you can source the exact item.
Where do I buy the ingredients?+
All of the materials are stocked by the major hobby-perfumery suppliers in the US, EU, UK and Australia. Each material includes its CAS number to make ordering unambiguous, and our free Ingredients Guide lists trusted suppliers by region. Specialty bases are flagged with supplier notes in the formula.
How much fragrance will this make?+
The formula is given per 100 g of concentrate, with grams-per-100g figures for every material, and our on-screen batch calculator scales it to 10 g, 50 g, 1 kg or any size instantly. Diluted to roughly 20% in perfumer's alcohol, a 100 g concentrate batch makes around 500 g of finished eau de parfum.
Is it legal to make a clone of a designer fragrance?+
Yes, for personal use. Fragrance scents themselves are not protected by copyright, and our formulas are original reconstructions — our own interpretations, not the houses' confidential formulae. Trademarks protect names and logos, which is why we describe formulas as "inspired by" a fragrance and never use brand logos. Read more on our blog about clone-formula legality.
What about IFRA compliance?+
Each formula includes IFRA notes. The percentages describe the concentrate; your skin-level exposure depends on the final dilution. If you ever sell or gift a finished product you should check the current IFRA Standards for restricted materials and confirm the maximum for your product category. For personal use, always patch-test and follow supplier safety data.
Can I get a refund on a formula?+
Because formulas are digital products delivered instantly, we do not offer change-of-mind refunds. We will, however, refund or correct any formula that contains a genuine material error within 7 days of purchase. See our refund policy for details.
