Marzipan Extrême
Among drugstore fragrances, Otto Kern is considered one of the best brands. And the Signature line is doing quite well. It's time to take a closer look at one of the (very affordable) representatives.

Signature Extrême starts off very spicy and very sweet. I detect a strong marzipan-like note. Is that the nutmeg? Or is it supposed to be sage? The composition sometimes comes across as a bit strange. At times it is spicier, at times sweeter, sometimes it has this synthetic marzipan flair, then again it is cleaner and more inconspicuous.
As it develops, the synthetic marzipan fades and the fragrance notes tend to lean a bit towards "Noir Extreme (Eau de Parfum) | Tom Ford," but of course, it never reaches that level of quality. Nevertheless, Signature Extrême smells more expensive than it is.
The performance is also quite acceptable for the price: the sillage is perfectly fine and can be detected for about 6 hours before it becomes more intimate.
The bottle is not ordinary and is appealing, except for the cheap plastic in the middle. That could have been of a higher quality. But yes, the price. The spray head, however, is quite good.

The fragrance is suitable for dates and (casual) evening events.

N° 6
Extreme is the sixth fragrance in the Signature line for men. Generally, I quite like scents from Otto Kern. So I had to get a small bottle to test the latest creation.

Shortly after spraying, Extreme is sweet and aromatic. I can't smell pineapple, but I can detect sage and nutmeg. Unfortunately, a dull bitter almond note quickly emerges, which doesn't last long and somewhat overshadows the spicy sweetness.

It also becomes floral, but not too much; I can hardly recognize the orange blossom. Instead, it gets quite earthy, although patchouli is not listed.

The earthiness does recede, but it remains present almost until the sweet-balsamic finish.

For me, Signature Extreme is the weakest scent in the line. The similarity to Signature Man is quite evident, but it also resembles Le Male by JPG, without being able to hold a candle to either.

Due to its sweetness, it is ideal for me, especially in the cold season. The projection is subtle; after three hours, the scent is only very close to the skin. However, the longevity is quite decent at around seven hours. The bottle feels good in the hand, and the spray head is of high quality.

Compared to the regular Signature (orange blossom, lavender, tonka), the spice and fruity notes have been intensified and enriched with resins.

I imagine something different under extreme. Just a "normal" men's scent.

A bit vague & "somehow", but quite good. Somehow creamy-woody, reminds me a bit of Oud Wood. Extremely somehow.

More spice than your spice rack,
alongside sweet freshness & you read the recipe
apron on, date night with candles,
herbaceous, sensual, classic!

Elegance ignites,
where woody notes meet spices,
softness and strength unite,
a touch of pure power.

A bit fruitier and sweeter than the Signature Man. Maybe a bit too sweet, but harmonious and a very good price/value!

Great spicy creamy oriental.
O-flower, cedar, amber, and sage dominate the scent.
Very beautiful, rounded, and soft.

I don't have a direct comparison, but after the first test, it reminds me a bit of D&G the One Edt.
Maybe I'm mistaken too ;)

For the very affordable price, it's a really good contender that doesn't have to hide in terms of sillage on my skin.
