Extreme Speed
Michael Korsview all“Herbal and grounded, like a Sunday well spent. For the nights worth dressing up for.”
The story
Extreme Speed by Michael Kors presents a dry, textured aroma with a strong woody and balsamic foundation, distinguished by its prominent cypress and patchouli notes. It evokes a formal, mature impression—reminiscent of Tom Ford Noir Anthracite and Narciso Rodriguez for Men—marked by a dense, slightly asphaltic character and elegant depth. The scent unfolds with a powdery violet aspect and warm spice, notably cinnamon and coriander, contributing to a sophisticated, restrained tone that works well in cooler weather and at night. Performance is moderate, with noticeable longevity on skin and longer on clothing, and the sillage is strong yet intimate, making it suitable for office settings and nighttime wear. The composition stands out for its unique spiced green aspect and complex dry-down.
