What does No. 1 Extreme smell like?

It wears with strong longevity and good sillage. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring a distant second and summer the least chosen. It leans towards evenings and nights out. Voters split almost evenly between calling it masculine and feminine, so it sits comfortably on either side.

The top opens with lime, grapefruit, ginger and cardamom. Jasmine and cedarwood form a floral, woody heart. The base is led by leather, benzoin, vanilla and vetiver, leaving a sweet, resinous, powdery and leathery warmth. Aus Liebe zum Duft No. 2 Extreme and Pierre de Velay No. 1 have a close profile.
