Desire Extreme by Alfred Dunhill, launched in 2017, is a bold and assertive fragrance that blends the sharpness of citrus with the warmth of leather. Blood orange and bergamot open the composition with a bright, zesty freshness, while saffron adds an unexpected depth of spiciness. The heart notes of cypress and clary sage introduce a green, aromatic quality that cuts through the sweetness, leading to a base of patchouli, amber, vetiver, and leather. This combination creates a scent that is both grounded and intense, perfect for those who want a fragrance as complex as it is commanding.

Application Tips
Desire Extreme has a strong presence that fades over time from bright citrus to warm leather. Apply one or two sprays for a balanced experience — the top notes will last about an hour before giving way to the deeper, more complex base. It’s best worn in cooler weather when its warm and spicy accords can shine without overpowering.
