big brother
the scent came to replace the EDT, where I have to say that it is not a fair comparison between the two scents. The EDT is more citrusy, fresher, the Eau Extréme is more the "sporty" one that wants to assert itself, with its masculine notes of pepper and tonka bean. Becomes masculine-powerful-sexy if I can put it like that.

That reminds me, we had the summer of 2014, around 08:30, we arrived on a terrace by the sea and were about to order our breakfast. Suddenly a light first, then a very dominant cloud comes over from the left side. Since it was still quite early, and I still had no coffee I was like hypnotized and asked my wife: " Honey, that's Chanel Allure Homme Sport or, but something is different". She thought it was similar, and that the guy who was sitting about 6-7m away from our table must have taken a bath in it, because the smell is unbearable. You have to be brave to wear the scent in summer, and those who know the EDT tend to "overspray", because the scent is extremely potent

I can recommend it for the autumn, when temperatures slowly go below 20 degrees, and for the winter of course.
You can also wear it in summer, but not more than 2 sprays of it, because otherwise the scent becomes extremely "toxic".

I don't write comments on the subject of the bottle, because that is always in the eye of the beholder, some people don't like it, so everyone has to know whether they buy a fragrance because of the bottle or not.

The Sillage is "magnifique" as the French would say, the fragrance likes to take up the whole room, and claims it mercilessly.

Durability is great, and I really don't want to write more about it :)

Citrus with pepper, a very successful composition
A long time ago I heard about Chanel Allure Homme Sport for the first time.
Of course, I had to test it immediately, so I went to the perfumery and snapped up the tester. I wasn't sure if it was something for me, so I didn't get it at first, but then summer 2008 or 2009 came and I needed a new summer scent, so... ordered.

The pepper convinced me immediately. Too bad that it didn't last sooooo long, at least I couldn't notice, but it could also be that it is only my subjective opinion with the time, at that time I possibly thought differently

I find the composition with orange, pepper and tonka bean very successful, and I haven't found a new fragrance on the market for a long time, which in retrospect made me so "dependent"
I had bought it 4 times, always in the 100ml version, no matter if in Strasbourg or Outlet in Austria, it always had a place with me in the collection until it was replaced by its big brother Eau Extréme.

I can still recommend the fragrance to anyone who spends a lot of time by the sea, for the evenings at the beach bar or the open-air concerts (well now in times of Corona rather difficult), the fragrance will not disappoint you.

In the meantime I have to say, I still have the big brother called Eau Extréme in my collection, but I think it is more suitable for the cold season, a fragrance is what remains...as long as it is still produced.

Well... I really expected more, much-much more
What do you want me to say?
I am massively disappointed
I already have the Percival of Parfums de Marly and I think it is TOP and has this uniqueness, and wanted to see why Layton makes such big waves.
Was mercilessly disappointed, because about 10 years ago I had bought from Kenneth Cole - R.S.V.P., and the Layton reminded me 1:1 of it, so I must say - bad.
Will stay with Percival, bought is bought now.
Will test it again in winter, because just now at about 20 degrees temperature it's not the burner, there are other crowd-pleasers, which are cheaper or not, but which do their job much better.
I don't advise against perfume at all, as already mentioned, it reminds me personally of RSVP, which is not everybody's cup of tea. But I definitely won't buy it anymore, because it's not unique, and in terms of price, I know of about 10 fragrances that perform better and cost more.
This was my personal opinion, need not please everyone.
