Property related to denseness

Let A be a subset of the topological space of X.
What is the standard terminology for the property that X = the intersection of all the open sets that contain A?
This seems related to A being dense in X but it is clearly not the same.
Is this a stronger property than denseness?
Where does this property stand in relation to denseness?

Thank you,

Paul Epstein
