XS Extreme Girl

Yum! I've been looking for a good substitute for Black Angel, an exorbitantly expensive scent designed by Mark Buxton. Turns out he created something similar a decade earlier. I managed to find an old tester bottle of this for a song *looks smug* and it's hard to tell the difference, except perhaps for the longevity. This manages to touch so many bases: fruity, soft, spicy, sweet and yes, sexy. I think women will love this one for its sweet/spicy combination, and I think that men could also wear it. On me the ginger and cinnamon are most prominent, but the tobacco and leather notes make an appearance after half an hour. I suspect , because it's an EDT, that this one will fare better and last longer on the skin in summer evenings. At the moment, it's a bit thin for winter nights, but great in the daytime. If you can find it, this is the spicy scent that works in the summer that you might be looking for. Or Black Angel if you can afford it!

It just makes me happy smelling it- uplifting soothing smooth, with depth but not heavy, not hot in it's spiciness, not overtly spicy,- unique. One of a kind. It's all been said- a little bit of heaven! I'm so grateful to have been able to put away a couple for later- I treasure it and am saddened by it's near extinction.Some resemblance to the lovely and long discontinued Theorama. On me and to my nose and my spirit, this comes closer than any other fragrance to the same "vibe" essence, texture, flavor- of my most beloved (and also nearly extinct) Balenciaga Pour Homme which is not to be confused with any other Balenciage men's fragrances- not even close. Theorema bears much more of a dirrect olfactory resemblance than Balenciaga does to Extreme Girl.

Yes, this I like. There is an ice cream I really like, mascarpone with forrest berry ripple and sprinkled with pistachio. This delicate and pretty perfume remind me of that ice cream. But, it is so much more than just a pretty, girly ice cream fragrance. It is as mentioned before very longlasting and after a while there is like the ice cream also being sprinkled with some kind of liqeur. I am so close to remember wich one, but it ́s escape me all the time! I don ́t think the name is that good, it isn ́t girly and it isn ́t small... it ́s rather full-bodied, alluring and seductive without being to much. More of an golden brown big sexy mama with the curves all wrapped up in a tight leather corset. Put this on your must try-list, pronto!

piccolo gioiello speziato ormai fuori mercato. il nome può trarre in inganno: questo accordo non ha nulla di "girly", piuttosto sembra il fratello più delicato di profumi come Five O`Clock Au Gingembre e Organza indecence. le note iniziali predominanti sono cannella, tabacco da pipa e zenzero, che perdurano ammorbidendosi nel tempo lasciando spazio ad un sentore di cuoio finale. non si tratta di una fragranza aggressiva: direi spezie, con moderazione. non troppo caldo nè troppo orientale. discreto (non nel senso di poco buono, ma di profumo non aggressivo). nel complesso molto gradevole.

thanks for your input Action. Well, I am very happy I ordered a bottle then. I am intrigued because I love ginger, pistachio [though I have never smelled in a fragrance], cinnamon, and almond! Can't wait to smell it! PS- how very kind of you to share a sample of Gucci Accent, as you love it so much. :)
