Dior Homme Intense 2025 is a real, distinct release — Fragrantica lists it as a separate entry and the 2025/2026 juice is widely discussed as another reformulation. Community consensus (Parfumo, Fragrantica boards, YouTube first-impressions) is that the 2025 batch is noticeably LIGHTER, less powdery, less sweet and weaker in projection/longevity than older DHI batches — 'like an EDT version of the original EDP.' CRITICAL CAVEAT: every established DHI clone the community vets is benchmarked to the OLDER/vintage powdery-iris DNA (iris + lavender + ambrette/pear + cocoa + Virginia cedar), NOT the 2025 reform; no clone has been broadly tested as a match specifically for the 2025 juice. Ironically, because the classic clones capture the beloved richer old DNA, several are arguably closer to what people loved about DHI than the 2025 release itself. Confidence is moderate: strong, repeated clone recommendations exist but map to pre-2025 batches. Best-vetted survivors ordered by how consistently they're cited (against the classic DNA); weaker/lower-fidelity picks were trimmed.
