Trussardi Black Extreme

Well done modern, masculine fragrance. Unusual, mature freshness of citrus and sweetnes of plum, definitely recognisable in this potion together with woody background with a strong leather accord. Oldschool-deodorant-like beggining of the composition make it true "eau de toilette" making cleanness impression. The core and base on the other hand make it elegant, going out really. So I find it quite universal, suiting well morning grooming of gentleman as well as for evening occasion. This is somehow masculine version of "Femme" by Rochas to me - tamed, less sweet with the same bohem character, which I find very nice. The downside is that it seems rather discreet after a while, but I need to test it again soon in milder aura. EDIT: It is quite potent during first 2 hours, then subtle, although very longlasting. There's something extraoridinary with this fragrance, which I love. Definitely test before purchase though.

I can agree with Endymion that the fragrance settles as subtle, although it lasts long and has very own character - not like any other. I do believe though it is a great misconception in the name - which is almost for sure a marketing failure - that many people connect "extreme" with "intense" or just "strong"/"forte". The fragrance is Black Extreme, not Uomo Extreme. It is extremely black, "absolute black" as Trussardi Parfums claim. No one promised it as a strenghten version of Uomo - it's just less bright, deeper - darker, more velvety (plum and iris), black extreme. Anyway that's my feeling. I've choosen this over the Uomo version. I just find it more pleasing, more opulent and versatile to be honest, because it suits both formal and informal occasion.

This is more modern and fairly stronger younger brother of Trussardi Uomo 2011. One youtube reviewer said it's like you mix Drakkar Noir and Bleu de Chanel, I totally agree. First you get marine notes and lemon with plum, then later it settles down with leather and woody notes, very masculine and done so well, it's divine. Beautiful elegant black bottle with heavy cap, box made of suede leather (never seen that before), everything is quality here and you get your money's worth. I don't understand negative reviews about this fragrance, maybe name is misleading because it's not extreme, however smell and presentation is top class.

One of the first perfumes i ever got, one of my favorite scents of all time and i often find myself wanting to repurchase, the smell is a fruity/sweet soft leather, and i find myself loving it and thinking about it alot, easily a 10/10 scent for me sadly sillage and longevity are not that good but its moderate and i think worth the price

Excellent perfume, very classy. A rich leather scent with marine notes to help keep it fresh. The contrast between the lemon notes and the marine accord. It's not a heavy fragrance. This perfume reminds me of Trussardi Uomo 2011. It's good for the Spring and Fall. I love Trussardi Black Extreme. Two Thumbs Up. Rating : 8.5 / 10
