What does Only The Brave Extreme smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it makes itself known through the day without filling a room. Most voters pick fall and spring, with summer not far behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and sits comfortably at the office too.

It opens with coriander, Primofiore lemon and mandarin orange for a bright citrus start. Towards the heart, apple, rose and violet add a fruity, lightly floral softness. In the base, patchouli and tonka bean sweeten and deepen it, leaving a slightly synthetic sheen.
