Kilian Intoxicated is an irresistibly plush coffee spice fragrance that wraps the senses like a steaming cup of Turkish coffee sprinkled with green cardamom and dusted with warm sugar. The opening crackles with aromatic brightness before deepening into a creamy mocha and vanilla glow, finishing with soft woods and balsamic sweetness that linger with seductive comfort and quiet power.

Story and Positioning
Intoxicated debuted as one of three scents in Kilian’s Addictive State of Mind collection, themed around compelling pleasures alongside Light My Fire and Smoke for the Soul. Today it sits within The Cellars family, a warm woods universe that nods to Kilian Hennessy’s cellar heritage with coffee and gourmand twists. If you enjoy coffee-centered gourmands and spice-driven warmth in the vein of icons like New Haarlem or Golden Dallah, Intoxicated delivers a luxurious, cardamom-led take designed as a signature for evenings, cool weather, and dressed-up occasions.
Bottle and Design
The refillable flacon presents deep black lacquer panels engraved with the Achilles shield motif on each side, framed by a polished silhouette that sits comfortably in the hand. A metal nameplate on the front is finished in gold for a refined look, and the atomizer gives a smooth, even mist. Earlier releases appeared with silver-toned accents and a matching Art Deco-style case, while current presentation features the house’s gold plated badge and enduring black aesthetic.
