by Michael Kors
Extreme Blue by Michael Kors presents a fresh, aromatic profile with prominent woody and musky base notes, featuring cardamom, bergamot, and a cashmere musk drydown. The scent evolves from a bright, slightly synthetic opening into a softer, more natural-smelling musk following a few hours, offering a clean, almost soapy quality reminiscent of established blue fragrances like Bleu de Chanel. It excels in warm weather and daytime wear, delivering moderate projection that fades to intimate after 2–3 hours, while longevity ranges from moderate to long depending on skin chemistry. Many users find it lightweight and unobtrusive, with performance varying significantly across individuals. Reviews are mixed, with some calling it generic or underwhelming, while others praise its pleasant, unique character and strong value for money when found at discount. Overall, it’s not extreme in character, but rather a fresh, understated aromatic musk best suited for spring and summer settings. Many note it's best worn in casual or professional environments where a subtle, clean scent is preferred.
