The lumberjack in a leather jacket...
Hello everyone,

this is my 250th review (!!!) and I wanted to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU. All those personal messages saying, for example, that I've saved you TIME, MONEY and NERVE - that I should keep doing what I'm doing and so on. at the end of the day, that's exactly what drives me to do it (not the trophies, followers, or that confirmation, or MONEY, because I don't get a penny for what I do. It's purely a hobby and has been for 24 years and I want it to stay that way! )

Anyway, I really spent a few days thinking about which fragrance to choose for this little "anniversary" and it had been planned for a long time that I would choose something special from Clive Christian or Roja, for example, but for a few days now the Bottega Veneta pour Homme Extrême has been looking at me over and over again like this... come on then, let's go for it! come on then, let's go for it!

What do we have here:

An extremely reduced fragrance. Reduced to what it should stand for, no more, no less. It has hardly developed at all, but it doesn't need to. I'm writing things down now = please read the following words, then close your eyes and you'll be able to imagine something and smell it - BET?
So,
imagine a mottled gray gentleman (possibly 45 years old) leaving the house early in the morning wearing a flannel shirt
(like a lumberjack) and goes into a fir or pine forest with a leather jacket to chop wood and you smell the clear scent of the forest, plus the slightly balsamic wood and the scent of the leather jacket. And the labdanum contained here is never really noticeable/perceptible, but it gives the fragrance this unique timeless aspect.

And...?

The performance is good and especially the durability is good+ to very good.

Unfortunately, it is very difficult to see or get hold of a sample or a bottle. So if you do - be quick...!

If I really wasn't convinced, I wouldn't recommend it to you!

And now have a nice day/evening, or whatever you read this review, LG the Benny

Hard material
I tested it in a little fragrance salon back then. A sprayer on the arm and found it appealing at the time. So I bought it and after a shower at home I put two sprayers on my neck. That was the disappointment. The smell is very very strong. Very rough and for me very peppery. Absolutely not my cup of tea and I did not find anybody this scent appeals to. It is too much on my face and has little magic. The performance is already good but not my taste at all. Surely your one or the other lover will give it. Unfortunately, a fragrance that does not even begin to appeal to me

Familiarity from the bottle
The first time I smelled BV PHE was with a small sample attached to an order.
After a few days the first time sprayed on the back of my hand, it almost knocked me over. The scent is insanely "dense" (for lack of better words) and you first have to process what you take in nasally, at least as a scent layman. So it wasn't love at first sight, I immediately stamped him as too extreme and unusable for me as a young student. BUT: That stuff stays on the back of your hand longer than it does for a breath, so I kept getting a rush of it in my nose, and well, "too extreme" became "interesting" and it became real love.
It reminds me somehow of an evening in the warm wooden living room with my parents and grandparents without smelling old-fashioned. It simply creates a very pleasant warm and familiar feeling in me, which I cannot satirize myself with.

The fragrance is obviously very polarizing, especially among the younger public. But I think you have to give it a chance and let the depth of the fragrance work its magic on you.

On the subject of durability, I can perceive well in about 5-6 hours, afterwards only very close. The Sillage is in my opinion good, not particularly obtrusive.

Conclusion: I love him and am happy if he is similar to others. That was my first comment by the way ;)

Bottega Veneta pour Homme (un)revisited
Just a more concentrated version of Bottega Veneta pour Homme for whom can't appreciate the classy lightness of the original. Completely identical to it to any extent, just a bit bolder. Given there's no other difference, I prefer the original just because of its subtlety.

Gorgeous balsamic woods and powdery leather. This has class written all over it. Only buy this if you have the wardrobe to go with it.
