Balmain Beauty Extatic is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Nathalie Feisthauer and Émilie Coppermann. Extatic opens with Rose, Osmanthus, and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Iris, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Amyris, Leather, and Sandalwood. Balmain Beauty's Extatic carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive delight, a "love it or hate it" kind of scent. While some find it a classy, sexy head-turner with an elegant sweetness, others recoil from what they perceive as a generic, synthetic mess. Blind buying? Proceed with caution.

Its sweetness and potential for strong projection make it less suitable for the office or sport.

About

Extatic opens with a juicy, sweet pear mingling with the delicate floral whisper of osmanthus. As it settles, a sophisticated heart of orchid and iris emerges, eventually leading to a warm, soft dry-down. Expect a luxurious blend of cashmere wood, creamy sandalwood, and a subtle, soft leather, grounding the sweetness with a plush, woody embrace.
