Cruel Intentions (Tempt Me) (Parfum)

"Cruel Intentions, also known as Tempt Me, is a dark, luxurious oud-centered fragrance from Kilian's original L'Oeuvre Noire period. Its opening combines bright bergamot and orange blossom with rose and violet for a floral lift. The heart introduces agarwood, papyrus, and guaiac wood, creating a dense woody core. Vetiver, sandalwood, styrax, castoreum, vanilla, and musk form a deep, balsamic, and animalic drydown. The composition balances polished floral facets against smoky woods and sensual warmth. Its rich and polarizing character is best suited to wearers who enjoy intense, dramatic fragrances rather than understated freshness."
