Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Paul Smith Extreme Man EDT
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - CK183 Crave EDP
Calvin Klein's Crave was discontinued back in the mid-2000s and is now hard to find, so this CK183 dupe is a rare shot at the original's peppery, basil-forward aromatic fougere without hunting down a rare bottle.

Season and Occasion Fit

Paul Smith Extreme Man

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

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.

CK183 Crave

Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A bright, spicy-aromatic scent that performs best in spring and summer heat.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Sport

Casual and office-friendly by default; the peppery aromatic profile is too informal for black-tie wear.
