Which Should You Buy?
Don't let the name fool you, there's nothing 'extreme' about this one. It's a fresh, unassuming scent that's loved by some for its clean simplicity, and dismissed by others as forgettably generic. Perfect for those who prefer their fragrance barely-there.
Dupe Supreme leans into the citrus-cardamom brightness of Paul Smith Extreme Man's opening fairly well, but where the original is already known among fans for fading fast, this version's rosewood-tonka base is even quieter still, so don't expect it to survive much past the first couple of hours.

Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its poor longevity and low sillage make it ideal for office wear or casual daytime use, as it's unlikely to offend. It's not strong enough for formal events or impactful date nights, but its fresh character suits the gym or quick errands.
Seasons
A bright citrus-aromatic profile that suits warm weather and light layering - it has neither the weight nor the longevity to stand up to cold air.
Occasions
Clean and inoffensive enough for the office or daytime casual wear; it lacks the presence for date nights or formal occasions, and fades too fast to bother reserving for a big night out.
