Which Should You Buy?
Tom Ford for Men Extreme is a polarising beast: for some, it's a discontinued masterpiece of masculine seduction, for others, an overpriced, underperforming let-down. If you like your rich, dark scents, this might just be your holy grail, if you can find it. But be warned, some find it a bit strong.
No. 343 takes on Tom Ford for Men Extreme's unusual lemon-fig-truffle-patchouli signature, matching the shape reasonably well, but the citrus opening is thinner, the truffle heart less dark and earthy, and the patchouli-cedar base drops off well before the original's dense, hours-long dry-down.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This scent's rich, dark, and sensual profile, coupled with reports of moderate to strong projection, makes it less suitable for office environments. It truly shines for dates and formal occasions, where its luxurious and classic masculine appeal can be appreciated up close, according to numerous reviews.
