Oriental perfumes have been experiencing a sustained boom in Europe for years – and for good reason. They combine depth, sensuality, and longevity in a way that Western fragrances often fail to achieve. The N°2 Intense Eau de Parfum by Asabi is a particularly successful example of this category: a fragrance that is both elegant and expressive. In this article, you will learn everything about the fragrance profile, its longevity, and whether this perfume is right for you.
What is the Asabi N°2 Intense perfume?
Asabi is a fragrance brand that specializes in the Arabic-oriental perfume tradition, placing great value on high-quality raw materials and meticulous craftsmanship. The Asabi N°2 perfume belongs to the house's intense fragrance creations – compositions with a particularly high oil content and a correspondingly powerful radiance.
The "Intense" in the name is not just a marketing promise, but a clear sign of quality: the concentration is higher than that of a normal Eau de Parfum, which is clearly noticeable in both the sillage and its longevity on the skin.
The fragrance profile: Oriental, floral, woody
The Asabi N°2 Intense Eau de Parfum carries its character in its subtitle: Oriental – Floral – Woody. These three adjectives describe a fragrance strategy that uses contrasts deliberately to create complexity.
Top note
The first impression is fresh and floral all at once. Delicate jasmine, light rose accents, and a slightly spicy freshness open the fragrance, providing an inviting start that does not feel too heavy.
Heart note
Over time, the true centerpiece unfolds: a rich, creamy, floral core infused with oriental spice notes. Here, the Asabi N2 perfume intense displays its full character – warm, sensual, and complex.
Base note
The base relies on classic oriental anchor points: sandalwood, oud accents, musk, and amber provide depth and a lasting dry-down that remains noticeable on the skin for hours. This woody base is typical of the finest Arabic perfume traditions and gives the fragrance its characteristic long-lasting effect.
Longevity and sillage: How long does the perfume last?
A key argument for oriental intense fragrances is their exceptional endurance. The N°2 Intense Eau de Parfum by Asabi is no exception. Thanks to the increased perfume oil content, you can expect a wear time of 8 to 12 hours – and even longer depending on your skin type and body heat.
The sillage, or the scent trail you leave behind when walking, is also remarkable. Two to three sprays are completely sufficient for most occasions. For particularly dry skin, it is recommended to apply the fragrance to slightly damp skin or skin prepared with a neutral body lotion – this noticeably improves adhesion.
Who is the Asabi N°2 Intense perfume suitable for?
The Asabi N°2 Intense is a unisex fragrance with a tendency toward feminine softness – yet it possesses enough woody depth to be an exciting choice for men as well. It is particularly suitable for:
- People who prefer deep, warming fragrances over light, aquatic compositions
- Fragrance lovers who want to transition from Western perfumes to oriental creations
- Autumn and winter months, when warm fragrance notes are at their best
- Evening occasions, dinners, or festive events
- Collectors of Arabic and oriental perfumes who want to expand their portfolio
In summer, the fragrance can feel somewhat heavy due to its intensity – here, a reduced dosage or application on clothing rather than directly on the skin is recommended.
Buying Asabi N°2 Intense: Where and what to look out for?
When purchasing an intense perfume, authenticity is crucial. Many cheap offers on large marketplaces do not come directly from the manufacturer or a specialist retailer and offer no guarantee of genuine products.
At the Da-Meso shop, you receive the Asabi N°2 Intense Eau de Parfum – Oriental Floral Woody as a guaranteed original product, curated by a team specialized in Arabic and oriental fragrances. This ensures that you not only get the right scent but also the complete fragrance experience in its original quality.
Tips for proper application
- Use pulse points: Wrists, the base of the throat, and the inside of the elbows are ideal application points, as body heat activates the fragrance there.
- Do not rub: Simply let the perfume soak in after application – rubbing destroys the fragrance structure.
- Less is more: Especially with intense concentrations, two to three sprays are perfectly sufficient.
- Apply to clothing: The fragrance often lasts even longer on fabric than on skin. -->
