Diesel Bad Intense by Diesel 50ml Eau De Parfum Spray for Men

More mischievous than the original, Diesel Bad Intense Eau De Parfum is a deeper, darker interpretation of the Diesel Bad fragrance.

Made for a man who can’t help but seduce, the Diesel Bad Intense fragrance will be his go-to scent for wild adventures and unstoppable exhilaration.

Year Introduced: 2017

Fragrance Notes: Spicy, yet sensual, the Diesel Bad Intense fragrance is the ideal accompaniment to his promiscuous character and untamed nature. A blast of bergamot rips through the composition, exposing the spicy facets of cardamom and black pepper. As the scent sizzles and warms, a powerful cocktail of nutmeg, cinnamon and lavish caviar awaken the dark base of smoky tobacco and benzion.

Onga-onga or stinging nettle is an ever present threat in many parts of New Zealand. A light brush with the nettle on your leg or arm, can leave you with a tingling sensation that persists for 24 hours.

Ongaonga has been linked to unexplained deaths of people walking through a dense patch and being overcome. With this mind, I decided to have a go cutting back a particularly annoying patch on our main track to the paddock we call, Waterses.

The Ongaonga bushes were above and below the track so I had to form a strategy so that I would safe. I found a large set of old tree branch loppers (giant secateurs) in the shed and then opted to take a piece of cloth, that used to cover our cool display cabinet in my old café.
