Only The Brave Extreme

by Aliénor Massenet

Diesel Only The Brave Extreme is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2016, created by Aliénor Massenet. Only The Brave Extreme opens with Apple, Lemon, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Rose, Leather, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Styrax, and Tonka Bean. Diesel's Only The Brave Extreme carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag, to put it mildly. Some folks rave about its 'beastly' performance and sweet, masculine allure, calling it a 'compliment monster'. Others find it a 'synthetic mess', cloying and even 'cheap smelling'. If you're after a loud, youthful leather-fruit scent that likes to make an entrance, give it a sniff. Just be prepared for a bit of a love-hate reaction.

Its strong projection and sweet, bold profile make it a poor fit for the office but excellent for date nights or clubbing. While some suggest it for sport, its sweetness and intensity might be too much post-gym. It's great for casual outings where you want to be noticed.

About

Only The Brave Extreme kicks off with a sharp, sweet burst of apple and citrus, quickly transitioning to a dominant blend of warm, leathery amber. A phantom rose note flits in and out, adding a touch of subtle floralcy before settling into a syrupy, tonka-rich dry-down with hints of styrax and labdanum for a resinous finish. It's a sweet, gourmand take on the original, with the leather accord dialled up.
