What does Aqua Extreme smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as weak, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough picture. It is marketed as a men's fragrance and, with this fresh build, reads as an easy everyday scent for warmer weather.

It opens with bergamot, vervain and aquatic notes for a crisp start. In the heart, lavender, geranium absolute and juniper add a green, lightly spicy line. The base of woody notes, tobacco and labdanum brings an earthy, smoky warmth. Lalique Encre Noire Sport and City Rhythm Manhattan have a close profile.
