*SHIPS FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY

Zaharoff EXTRÊME is a bold, audacious, and luxurious fragrance that takes the foundation of Signature Pour Homme and elevates it to new heights of sophistication and intensity. It’s a scent that embodies power, precision, and timeless craftsmanship, both in its olfactory composition and its exquisite presentation. 

Fragrance Category:

1. Woody-Leathery:

   • EXTRÊME is a rich, complex fragrance that combines smoky woods, leather, and resinous notes to create a scent that is both rugged and refined.

   • The use of temple oud, birch, and cashmere woods in the heart adds a deep, earthy, and smoky character, while the leather accord in the base gives it a bold, masculine edge.

2. Spicy-Aromatic:

   • The opening of black pepper, cardamom, and rosemary introduces a sharp, spicy, and aromatic freshness that sets the stage for the fragrance’s intensity.

   • The basil and apple notes add a subtle fruity-green touch, balancing the spiciness and adding complexity.

3. Resinous-Oriental:

   • The base of frankincense, myrrh, and patchouli gives EXTRÊME a warm, spiritual, and sensual depth, reminiscent of ancient incense rituals.

   • The sandalwood and vetiver add a creamy, woody smoothness that rounds out the fragrance and enhances its longevity.

Key Characteristics:

• Bold and Audacious: EXTRÊME is a fragrance that makes a statement. Its intense blend of smoky woods, leather, and spices creates a powerful and commanding presence.

• Luxurious Craftsmanship: The use of high-quality ingredients, such as temple oud from Indonesia, frankincense from Ethiopia, and Guatemalan cardamom, reflects Zaharoff’s commitment to excellence and luxury.

• Timeless Elegance: The inclusion of classic notes like myrrh, sandalwood, and vetiver gives the fragrance a timeless, sophisticated appeal that transcends trends.

Inspiration and Storytelling:

• Automotive Legacy: The connection to the Mercedes Black Pearl finish adds a layer of luxury and heritage to EXTRÊME. The bottle’s design, with its iconic pearlescent black plating, pays homage to the golden era of automotive craftsmanship and precision.

• Olfactory Artistry: EXTRÊME is a reinterpretation of Signature Pour Homme, pushing the boundaries of perfumery to create a fragrance that is both familiar and thrillingly new. It’s a testament to Zaharoff’s ability to innovate while staying true to its roots.

• Spiritual and Sensual: The use of frankincense, myrrh, and sandalwood evokes a sense of spirituality and sensuality, creating a fragrance that is both grounding and intoxicating.

Target Audience:

• Luxury Enthusiasts: EXTRÊME will appeal to those who appreciate the finer things in life, from high-end fragrances to luxury automobiles.

• Confident and Bold Individuals: Its intense, smoky, and leathery profile makes it ideal for those who want a fragrance that exudes power and sophistication.

• Fans of Niche Perfumery: The use of rare and high-quality ingredients, combined with its complex composition, will attract fragrance connoisseurs who seek unique and artisanal scents.

Occasions and Wearability:

• Evening and Formal Events: EXTRÊME’s bold and luxurious character makes it perfect for evening wear, formal occasions, or any event where you want to make a lasting impression.

• Cooler Weather: The warm, smoky, and resinous notes make it particularly well-suited for fall and winter, though its complexity could make it wearable year-round in the right setting.

• Gender-Fluid Appeal: While it leans masculine, its sophistication and depth make it a versatile choice for anyone who appreciates bold, luxurious fragrances.

Comparison to Other Fragrances:

EXTRÊME stands out in the woody-leathery category due to its unique combination of smoky woods, leather, and resinous notes. It may draw comparisons to other luxurious, bold fragrances like Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather or Amouage’s Interlude Man, but its connection to the Mercedes Black Pearl finish and its emphasis on spiritual, resinous notes set it apart. The use of temple oud and frankincense gives it a distinctive, exotic depth that is truly unique.

Final Thoughts:

Zaharoff EXTRÊME is a masterpiece of modern perfumery that combines boldness, luxury, and timeless elegance. It’s a fragrance that honors the legacy of automotive craftsmanship while pushing the boundaries of olfactory artistry. The connection to the Mercedes Black Pearl finish adds a layer of sophistication and heritage that elevates EXTRÊME beyond a mere fragrance—it’s a contemporary icon of luxury.

Each cap and plate is finished in this iconic shade, creating an artifact of timeless German engineering and precision. Like the vehicles it once adorned, this color shifts and plays with light, revealing subtle depths that speak to those who appreciate true craftsmanship.

But EXTRÊME is more than its extraordinary presentation - it's a bold and audacious reinterpretation of our iconic Signature Pour Homme, pushing the boundaries of olfactory artistry to thrilling new heights. Available in both 120ml (4.0 oz) and 60ml (2.0 oz) presentations, each bottle features our distinctive plating in Mercedes Black Pearl.

From George Zaharoff:
