Guerlain's L'Homme Idéal Extrême, composed by Thierry Wasser and released in 2020, is a spicy, sweet and woody masculine in which all three sides pull equal weight. About half of wearers also describe it as musky, aromatic or citrusy.
The opening pairs bergamot with almond and pink pepper, so the first impression is both fresh and nutty, with a peppery tingle. In the heart, plum brings a dark, jammy fruitiness, cinnamon adds warmth and heliotrope lends a powdery, marzipan-like softness. The base is the heaviest part: cedar and patchouli for dry woods and earth, tobacco for a sweet, slightly smoky depth, and leather for a smooth, worn-in finish.
Wearers are split between calling it moderate and long lasting, and most describe the sillage as moderate, with about a fifth finding it strong. Winter and autumn take most of the votes, and it leans towards evenings, so it is best kept for cold weather, dinners and nights out.
