Warmer, Sweeter and Spicier than the Original - But Not Bold Enough
First impressions.
Montblanc Extreme opens up with a blast of fresh citrus, but then develops into a much darker, warmer fragrance with much more depth than the original. In the drydown it also becomes sweeter and more resinous.
It's very much in the wheelhouse of Sauvage Elixir/Boss Bottled Elixir/Triumph Elixir and even Bottled Absolu, though nowhere near as strong or as bold. It feels like this is where Montblanc took its inspiration from. It also shares the same spiciness as those fragrances and has the same liquorice note found in Sauvage Elixir.
It's by no means a beast mode fragrance, and on me sits very close to the skin. Longevity is better, and I've been able to smell it for most of the day. Personally I would prefer it to be punchier and project better.
It's a 6 out of 10 for me at the moment, as it needs more wear. It's not a bad fragrance, it's just that there are other fragrances out there doing the same kind of thing, only better.
