About this video

Starting a fragrance collection is easier when each bottle has a purpose. In this video, I’m looking at where I’d begin, with Dior Homme Intense, Layton, The One EDP and Allure Homme Sport Eau Extrême among the choices. You can use the collection to work out what you want to wear before deciding how many bottles you need.

Eau Extrême has its own aromatic, tonka-led character, so the comparison with original Allure Homme Sport is worth a look. I’ve also linked the Gentleman Réserve Privée alternatives guide for anyone interested in warmer iris. Both give you a more focused next step after the broader collection.
