Using up a sample of extreme this morning. It smells good but if I’m honest the og is much better. This one holds a sliver of the original dna but is definitely its own thing, mostly from the amber and patchouli. It comes across more earthy and dense. Less vibrant and clean and sharp. If I had to rate it I would say 5/10 🤷🏻‍♂️. Smell great brothers. Enjoy the day.

The wife's birthday celebration continues with a Sunday brunch at a fancy French joint with friends. The weather in the desert is nothing short of spectacular so I'm going with a citrusy frag (she picked.) This, along with Naxos, are my two favorites from this House, and actually I think they're both core holdings in a frag collection. This is a vibrant, elegant, freshie with citrusy notes that make it perfect for warmer weather. The top includes lemon, bergamot, and tangerine. The mid is minty with rose. The base is actually musky and woody. It's great for spring and summer, daytime, and generally pretty versatile. Many find it is one of the longest-lasting fresh scents. This is really nice and a bit of a crowd-pleaser. The celebration continues...🙄 8.5 / 10.0
