In my search for Ylang in Gold, I stumbled upon Pure Extrême in the perfume shop and knew right away that this perfume was coming home with me.
The sales assistant also noticed my great joy, as I have been looking for a summer scent that truly blows me away.
The reason I adore this perfume so much is also closely tied to my first love, Carmen Electra 2007 by LR. Back then, I only had a sample, and by the time I could afford it, the perfume was no longer on the market.
However, Pure Extrême only reminds me of that, as the scent is much fresher, rounder, and more elegant than the LR fragrance.
With some floral perfumes, the flowers are too prominent and take away the freshness. That is not the case here; the selection of flowers promises to maintain the freshness and lightness. The pleasant sweetness and freshness come through beautifully on my skin.
Definitely a daily scent for summer and spring, also my favorite for the next summer vacation.
And very suitable for a summer wedding, whether as an elegant bride or as a guest.
However, for an evening out in summer, I would reach for Ylang in Gold.
I can only partially understand the comparison with Chloé; Chloé has more of a fresh laundry vibe and feels more floral.
Both have their own character.
I'm surprised that sometimes a hit like this can happen! A few days ago, I bought the fragrance and of course, I wanted to read the comments and reviews to see if there's anyone out there who finds the scent as beautiful as I do. What I read here really delighted and surprised me... I think it was in 2006 when I got a sample of Carmen Electra from LR and fell in love with the scent right away, but when I wanted to buy it, unfortunately, it was no longer available...
I also feel that the two fragrances are very similar, but this one is much deeper, fuller, and more harmonious.
Thank you for the great review! A trophy! 🤗
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that. With the sheer number of perfumes and the short time Carmen Electra was on the market, I never expected to find a kindred spirit! 😀
It's great that there's an even nicer alternative to Carmen; I wish that for some other scents too!
Thanks for the super nice reply! 😊
