We’ve all been there: we spritz on our fragrance and leave the house only to get where we’re going and notice that our scent is fading. It’s frustrating, right? Well, the problem isn’t you – it’s your cologne. It doesn’t have enough staying power. The solution? Look for the word ‘Extreme’ on your next fragrance bottle. Perfumers apply the word to more concentrated iterations of well-known classics. Why? Because the ‘extreme’ versions provide a bolder olfactory experience, with deeper and richer notes that linger on the skin for longer. These bad boys pack a punch with higher concentrations of aromatic compounds than a standard eau de toilette, making them more robust and long-lasting. Here are our top five extreme fragrances for men.
