About this video

There’s plenty to explore on the designer side even if you spend most of your time looking at niche fragrances. Dior Homme Intense, CH Men, Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme and Y EDP Intense join Boss Bottled Absolu, Spicebomb Extreme, Ralph’s Club Elixir and Acqua di Gio Parfum in this selection.

Bottled Absolu’s guide is useful if leather, resin and woods are what you’re after. Spicebomb Extreme gets a closer comparison with Noir Extreme EDP, which puts peppery tobacco and vanilla beside a creamier gourmand direction. Let the fragrance itself earn its place; the designer or niche label won’t tell you which one you’ll enjoy wearing most.
