The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021 by By Kilian and crafted by perfumer Calice Becker, Love Don't Be Shy Extreme is a vibrant Oriental Vanilla fragrance that balances sweet florals with fresh spicy notes. The composition opens with the brightness of neroli and bergamot, which give way to a heart of orange blossom and Bulgarian rose, adding a lush floral depth. Marshmallow and vanilla create a soft, powdery warmth in the base, while musk and pomegranate lend an unexpected freshness that keeps the scent from feeling too sweet.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points for a balanced effect — the top notes are bright but fade within an hour. The powdery base notes will develop over time, ensuring that you carry a warm, floral presence throughout the day.
