The Intense Squad is our living library of creators, storytellers, reviewers and fragrance personalities: the people who shape how the fragrance world talks about scent. On November 4, 2026, we brought part of that community together in person in New York.
An evening at Fogo de Chão
We met at Fogo de Chão in Downtown Brooklyn for an evening of dinner, conversation and fragrance: what everyone has been wearing, reviewing and recommending, shared around the table instead of in the comments, with more than a few moments on the mic.
A first look at what's next
The Squad also got an early look at fragrances that haven't been released yet. We can't name them yet, so keep an eye on our channels: you'll hear about them soon.
Moments from the night
Thank you, New York
Thank you to everyone who came out, and to the team at Fogo de Chão Downtown Brooklyn for hosting us. The Squad keeps growing, and so will the invitations.
