Description
Chanel is launching men’s fragrance Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau
Extreme and adds it to the well-known collection Allure Homme. The
first perfume of this line was launched back in 1999, and several
other versions splashed the market afterwards – Allure Homme Eau
Fraichissante Pour l`Ete, Allure Homme Edition Blanche, Allure Homme
Sport and Allure Homme Sport Cologne Sport.
Creator of the new Chanel edition is perfumer creator Jacques Polge
who provided this characteristic combination made of musky shades,
tart spices, aromatic freshness and masculine, woody accords. Sicilian
mandarin, mint, cypress and clary sage are in charge of cold, herbal
refreshment. Tart not of the fragrance is provided by a fine dose of
black pepper, and woody masculine accords consist of cedar and
sandalwood from New Caledonia, shaped and softened by sensual musk and
warm tonka beans. This extreme composition is reflected in a
combination of freshness, tartness, sensuality, sharpness and
strength!
Flacon of the new edition has the same shape as previous Chanel Allure
Homme edition in dark color with a silver color ring on the stopper
with engraved name of the brand. Red and white letters on dark body of
the flacon provide dynamics to the edition. The fragrance is available
as 50 and 100ml Eau Extreme.
Face of the advertising campaign is professional surfer Danny Fully,
while advertising video clips were directed (Chanel presented them in
several versions of advertising clips) by Oscar winner Kathryn
Bigalow. Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme was launched in 2012.

@gerasimpedo yes that’s what your suffering from
Hoiseeenlance – :
What’s going on with the performance/sillage of this fragrance? I received it as a gift and the batch code is 2401, which is made in December 2017. It was bought from official Chanel dealer. This frag’s projection/ scent trail vanishes after literally 20-30 minutes maximum and is becoming skin scent for over 20 hours, but what’s the point of having a skin scent for 107 Euros? I own the non-extreme version too and it projects for at least 1 hour after applying leaving scent trail and bubble. I literally tried applying 10 sprays on shirt + body and it’s like nothing happens. Can anyone that owns newer bottles like mine share their experience with it?
I am very disappointed after all the hype it received and all the talk about EDP not being reformulated and such.
EDIT: Is it possible that I am getting Olfactory fatigue with this frag?
DionGymnmen – :
This energizing fragrance is difficult to classify.
It is at the same time fusing and intense.
The opening is made on a sparkling note of mandarin peel decorated with camphor and mint scents. The spicier heart reveals the amber-musky note of clary sage.
The warmer wake is composed of a combination of white musk, tonka bean, cedar and sandalwood.
In 2004, Chanel unveiled Allure Homme Sport, one of the first french fragrances to exploit the territory of sport.
In 2012, the brand reinvested this olfactory territory and launched a challenge: Allure Homme Sport Eau Extrême.
Jacques Polge thus imagines a full-bodied composition more powerful than the original with also more amber. This fragrance that combines elegance and sport is for men who are looking for a signature fragrance that they can wear all year round whatever the occasion.

Smelled it on someone else and it was unreal.
So good!
supersecurity – :
Gorgeous fragrance. It opens up very fresh and dries down in a sophisticated, tonka bean dominant scent. It is pure class in a bottle and smells like it can be worn at any occasion. However, due to the strong projection and sweetness, I do not think this is appropriate in the high heat. I once wore this on a hot summer evening and it was sooooo strong. I was choking myself out for two to three hours, with four (sample) sprays to my neck.
This will be my uplifting ‘freshie’ for the autumn and winter.
Scent: 10/10
Projection: 9/10 (First 3 hours very strong projection)
Sillage: 9/10
Longevity: 7/10 (Only weakness, basically a skin scent after 3 hours)
Versatility 10/10 (Be gentle on the trigger when spraying this on before going to the gym. You can kill people with its projection. One spray max.)
Uniqueness: 8/10
Total: 9

Let’s keep this one to ourselves folks,
It would be best ,and yes a bit selfish, if don’t tell everyone about this magnificent Fragrance, let’s keep it our little secret ,we don’t want everyone rocking it and turning it into another 1 million ,Sauvage,or Aqua d gio, LOL
чирик68 – :
Smells like the drydown of the original Allure cranked up to an 11. This is like a “winter” version of the original AHS, but still works in the summer, too. My favorite scent to wear when dressing casual or sporty, like when I’m wearing sneakers.
torovin – :
If I could only have one Cologne for the rest of my life, this would be it. Any occasion, any season, any reason. I’d take to the grave if they let me.
arisserg – :
As mush as I love this fragrance (lots of quality compliments gotten), it just doesn’t last on my skin on a seaside town with hot and humid climate.
Max I’ve gotten was 5 hours with only an hour projection before turning into a skin scent (10 sprays).
Genrih1845 – :
This is my highest performing fragrance, even over Eros, and even over JPG Ultra Male. 12 Hours after my four sprays to the neck and 2 to the wrists a lady complemented me on how i smelt, even though i could not smell myself and my wrists smelt like nothing.
Even if you don’t smell it, its still there.
I think i found my first 11/10 Fragrance, amazing smell, compliments galore, beast performance and jaw dropping versatility. What a great one!
wadim802 – :
After just about drinking my way through the majority of a 100ml bottle of bleu de chanel edp, I decided to pull the trigger on my next chanel target. Allure homme sport eau extreme.
Such an awesome fragrance..ok it’s a bit generic and not particularly unique but man can this thing project. Longevity is strong aswell, lasts pretty much all day. This Is the only juice I’ve bought where Ive actually been able to smell my own Sillage trail.
I love this one because it’s a combination of a lot of my favourite notes. Orange, mint, Tonka, musk, pepper and cedar wood.
It’s Expensive like all chanel products but it’s quality stuff. Had to get the 100ml bottle. Go big or go home right?
rruuss – :
This has been a completely random gem for me! I’ve only just discovered this through watching some reviews online – usually when a perfume has a strong orange note I get slightly off-put but this gives me the completely opposite feeling. I think it’s the Tonka bean that gives this so much character and it just smells creamy/soft.
Such a pleasant smell to have around you, it’s an all-rounder for weather and even for where you are (office/going out).
Great fragrance and top quality!
alex123456789 – :
Eau Extreme is my love at first sight many years ago.
This fragrance is great smelling at that time and I have to say I love it. Anyway the greatest time of Allure Homme Sport line is gone, it doesn’t stay at the top nowadays. Back to the day Allure Homme Sport has been released it so famous and unique, it fresh, it clean and so sweet at the background how good it is…
I still love it, but not my best fragrance anymore, it too hype and were used by a lot of people around me.
Scent 8/10
Silage 8/10
Longevity 7.5/10
Uniqueness 4.5/10 ( You can smelling it everywhere )
Still one of the best fragrance but were killed by it own hype.
desten – :
I kinda like this, i do not own it, i smelled it at the store, it is long lasting, inoffensive, and ‘clean’. However do not blindbuy it. It does smell like an expensive detergent.
It reminds me of a clean toilet. I imagine if someone asked what it is, and i answered chanel, i will get laughed at. It is not bad, but i expected something special… Imo not worth the 100£, for half the price there are better options…
Aerohopleneriepf – :
Do I really need another fragrance? No, I don´t think I do actually. This is SO versatile! There are a few others that deserves to be mentioned, BDC and Sauvage. BUT Eau Extreme plays in a leauge of it´s own. Works in every season of the year. Office, dinner with friends, night out, supermarket, church etc etc
I have the new EDP version, and this one gives me about 7-8 hours of clean smelling.
Just buy it, you will not be sorry! 🙂
AlelveDoorB – :
Very fresh, very smooth and very well done. But not very unique.
svetoy75 – :
this is a good scent and i feel like it works best in the fall and spring. This is so well done and well blended it’s just easy to wear and easy to like
when a fragrance smells good, it’s easy to wear (and not wear you) and ppl enjoy smelling it in the air and on your persons then that in my opinion is what makes a fragrance go past that “good” level and goes way above.
this is easily a 8.9-9.5/10 i mean even though i think it works best in semi-cool conditions that doesn’t mean you couldn’t rock this all year, it’s absolutely fresh enough to do that and you could wear this for almost any event in your life so that’s another reason why this is hyped constantly.
price is really the only downside to this fragrance and that’s just the territory that comes with it rocking the Chanel name.
Personally i think it’s blind buy worthy provided you actually give it a chance.
Even when you over spray it that’s when it seems like this gets those insane compliments very unique to this scent because of it’s nature, can’t get away with overspraying everything all the time but this one for some reason just works when you do (generally speaking)
psv3 – :
Hmm… very hyped fragrance.
Given that this is such a good scent good performance good longevity.
It is a no brainer.
I love this and in my opinion it is still not appreciated enough.
Andreyderka – :
@FAST & fisken23
This is not a review. Just adding a perspective. Fragrances perform differently on different people. Your health condition, skin type, whether you smoke, being diabetic, age etc etc. You’ll be surprised if I say that what mood you are in matters when it comes to applying fragrances. Not a degree, this I say purely based on my journey of 15 plus years, and after enjoying may be a thousand fragrances in these years. Fragrances as cheap as 5 dollars or as high as 500 dollars.
I would always suggest to first test the fragrance on your skin, if you could. May be visiting a local Macy’s would help or may be getting a sampler guides you better. See how it goes and then decide which one to go for. I agree that edp is dense where as edt is crisp but I have seen it working differently on different folks. That’s why you see a mixed response here. Some say edt is better whereas for some edp is holy grail.
And the last thing, these both are among the best fragrances produced in modern perfumery. Period.
perman – :
@fisken23 I have tried both, not sure why some people say EDP is horrible. It’s one of my most complimented and longest lasting fragrance I own. 4-5 sprays and people can still smell me 2 feet away at the 5 hour mark. EDT felt even more sharper than the EDP (and EDP has sharp opening already) and EDT doesn’t have that strong creamy/woody base like the EDP. Just get the latest batch at the store dont go around looking for an overpriced EDT.
Darkman58 – :
Can anyone please tell me if there are any differences between the edt and the edp-version? If so, which do you prefer?
Thanks!
Danehaoxjlyrk – :
@jotalopez
Not necessarily expired because I bought mine back in 2012 at Macy’s and it fits your description perfectly. 6 years have passed, still trying to understand what is it about this fragrance that people find to be so good. It is a beast though, even today.
kinoman1993 – :
Extreme? Seriously? Huge disappointment! I bought a 100 ml EDT which according to the batch code was made in January 2012. Although the juice smells nice and classy at the opening it soon evolves into a quite generic, sweet and powdery smell that lasts only a few minutes before becoming an unnoticeable, close to skin scent. I’m sure it has nothing to do with my skin chemistry but with the production date as it was made back in 2012, so I think my bottle had already expired. I have used other Chanel fragrances such as the awesome Allure Homme Edition Blanche and I had no issues with this. There are better Chanel fragrances out there, but this is not one of them. I’ll stick to Edition Blanche.
axolotllll – :
Interesting fact = this smells a lot better in cooler or cold weather. Getting wiffs of this in cool air is awesome. Scent less moisturiser also really helps this one. But in temperatures below zero it won’t perform.
ErerlidgE – :
DONT smell this on your hand or paper because it Will smell bad, spray it on your friend and Walk after him and smell it!! Thats how you self will smell when you put this masterpiece on!!
laghsomzole – :
This is a slight dark scent. An orange, mint, woody, tonka scent.
Its striking.
The tonka makes up like 80 % of the scent. Its a chic magnet, yes it summons compliments.
It lasts obviously, 4 hrs after I sprayed it I walked into the building of where I work and the secretary immediately noticed it.
gagarinneon – :
Chanel is the perfect example of a designer fragrance house. Its designer line exemplifies what it means to be designer. They are easy to wear, perform great, have mass appeal, are not challenging, and can’t be that interesting because then they wouldn’t have as much mass appeal. 9 or 10 out of 10 people that smell this are just going to think, smells good! This is soft and warm and woody and also sporty and fresh. It’s not artsy or intellectually challenging although it is sophisticated and nuanced. And it smells great.
Right at the open there is a whole, skin on orange. Natural, not overly bright or unnaturally juicy. After that the tonka is the only note distinct enough to easily pull apart from the rest of the blend, the rest are all shades. The females around me find this to be very masculine. Smells much better on my skin than on paper.
It’s fresh but comforting and begging to be embraced physically.
Lots of males and mostly females have complimented many of the fragrances I wear. But this is the only one where two grown men stopped me in public to ask what it was so they could buy it.
My favorite Chanel designer fragrance. Brings people in close to you. I have a newer EDP bottle.
Accigipse – :
For ages this was my one and only scent along with the original allure sport. Since then I have tried a lot of the top rated designer and some niche.
This is still the boss and gets the best and most frequent compliments
Never have any doubts when wearing this like I have with others (to sweet? Too loud? Too feminine?)
Higher quality than most other scents, you can tell with the smoothness of the dry down and brilliant lasting power
Can’t see how a designer can beat this
shurik19792010 – :
I´ve bought it from notino. The longevity was extremely disappointing, the scent was barely noticeable after 2 hours. Nobody felt this on me. The scent is beautiful & sexy but because of longevity issues, I will never buy this again. I returned it to e-shop.
rolexreplica48278 – :
I picked up this fragrance recently and yeah it’s kinda okay but not the top summer fragrance. It smells a bit like powder and after only 30 minutes which is a disappointing however it is inoffensive ,most people will like it and it’s versatile.
Use: A good office fragrance, not very professional but still inoffensive enough. Day time fragrance when you go out to do what you normally do.
Scent: 6/10
Projection: 6/10
Longevity: 4/10 (smells like powder pretty fast imo)
Versatility: 8/10
Compliments: 7/10 (if people notice it)
Clickshop – :
This is a beautiful fragrance, however I would prefer this to be worn my girlfriend as I find it quite feminine. The longevity is also poor and doesn’t last long at all.
пахан71 – :
For me is Chanel house number one, definitely Chanel never makes a mistake,this perfume is a real example.
CAHSEE is fantastic fragrance,one of the most beautiful design editions.I have CAHS like this Eau Extreme,I highly recommend both.This is a perfume for every occasion for all seasons,very versatile.
A simple perfume for men who have a taste.
10/10
cey064speagoessenda – :
Powerful. This and cologne sport are the best and classics of the collection. A Head turner, guaranteed compliments. Gets more compliments than the played out chanel blue line up
CrornBenAbnog – :
Not sure about this one, i have every Allure Homme fragrance there is and this one with the original Allure Homme are the least favorite of mine.
All i get it is tonka, thick heavy tonka with a bit of woods and alot of sweetnes.
Only tried this scent in the warmer months so i might change my mind in cold weather but for now it’s a fragrance i can’t seem to like.
Jorewal – :
Like the original Allure Homme Sport (AHS) but woodier.
Good performance & sillage.
However, the scent is, unfortunately, made woodier by none other than tonka beans. Personally, when dominant, tonka beans are just not a good smell to wear. One of the my least favorite woody notes.
In short:
– AHS EE = AHS + tonka beans = Woodier AHS
– Performance = Good
– Better than the original AHS? No!
dimanja23 – :
I recently picked up a bottle of this scent and I absolutely love it. I find myself spraying it on even if I’m not going anywhere because I just want to smell it. Unfortunately on my skin it doesn’t last long at all.. with in 3 hours of spraying its almost completely gone
Will I buy again: probably not because for the price tag it should last a little longer. (CAD $110 for 50 ml)
Batch code: 4704
makdanil – :
I’ve smelled this scent somewhere before.
From another house, but I believe this came out first.
Anyway…
This is a nice scent…Suit and tie or semi-casual wear.
anywhere at any time.
not a must have…because the retail price is really high.
but if you have to get it or you blind bought it…Know that you didn’t waste your time getting it.
A nice musky, woody, semi-sweet scent.
I used six sprays…both wrist, back & front of my neck, chest, and front of my shirt.
Will I buy this again? No(But i’ll make sure this bottle last).
What’s the strength of this? EDP.
Does this fragrance enter BEAST MODE, good, just okay or weak sauce at best? Beast Mode.
Can you use it as a unisex scent? No.
Am I willing to trade this fragrance? No.
Should You Skip It, Sample It First or Blind Buy It? You sample it first(it’s Chanel, so it get’s pricey).
Is it the old, new formulation? New.
What’s its availability; in production, limited edition or discontinued? In production.

Until next time, I’ll catch you on the flipside.
pology – :
For me this is classy citrus with some aquatic aspects with added tonka for smoothness and sweetness.
For me I cannot think of when you would wear this outside a white collar workplace. It is too formal and simple smelling for me.
The brighter,more citrusy, Versace pour homme smells more elegant and projects better. It seems more playful and versatile without the sweetness or smooth tonka to me. Did I mention that Versace Signature/pour homme is cheaper ?
Anyways I hear this does well for the younger me 18 to 25, so it has that going for it.
I would rather have versace Dylan Blue for that.
Try it out and see what you think, I personally do not love this one.
magnat084 – :
After reading all the reviews, I bought a decant of AHSEE, smells amazing, long lasting. When I finished my decant, decided to get a 150ml bottle. To my dismay, the scent lasted for 3-4 hours MAX (1st hour strong-ish projection, completely undetectable by the 4th hour).
Thought I got a bad bottle or something, so I went to a Chanel boutique to try it out, and that gave the same bad performance as well! Reformulated maybe? Not quite the powerhouse it once was.
P.S. 2017 batch
asassin88 – :
I like this, may do a bit better for someone else. On paper this smells better than the others in the allure line in the opening. But something about the dry down, does not work with my skin chemistry. There’s something off putting about it I haven’t smelled before. Really wanted to like this.
vru346Unlogrere – :
I like this one. It is potent and fresh. It is likelable and unique. It has a bit of a ‘tooth’ and character which I enjoy. I can see this being suitable all year around day or night. I find myself reaching for this far more frequently than BDC edp.
Scent: 8/10
Sillage: 9/10
Longevity: 9/10
maliwb – :
I love this smell.
Initially I was not sure about the tonka bean note for summer days. I thought it would be perceived by others as too sweet, maybe even cloying as some people say here. But after I asked what people think and got a reaction that I actually smell fresh (not sweet) I became more relaxed about its sweetness.
It is my go-to fragrance right now and the more I wear it the more I like it.
I don’t find it being a “beast” in performance category. Just average, maybe even below average. After about 2 hours it becomes a skin scent and in 5 hours people cannot detect it on me. For example, 1 Million Cologne lasts longer and projects stronger on me to the point that it even becomes annoying. I don’t know what’s up with my skin chemistry, but I find that all of the so called “beast mode” perfumes do not perform well on me. Got used to it. So I can’t blame AHSEE directly.
It performs much better if you spray, let it dry for a minute, then spray again on the same spot. 2 double sprays give me a better projection than 4 single sprays on different spots. So my recommendation is at least 2x on each side of a neck if you want to get noticed.
A batch code of my bottle is: 2101

Sex in a bottle. Heads will turn.

One hour? Must be a fake.
I get 12-15 all year round. That is if using a regular bottle spray, not from a sample spray.
kuznetrus – :
For the people that complain about longevity heres a tip. Spray awat from you nose. This makes you go nose blind incredible fast. If I spray more than 2 sprays I can’t smell it for more than 10 mins. It’s very strong. This also doesn’t perform that well in hot humid sticky weather. It becomes way too powdery and that also may affect longevity. Spring, Fall, and Summer nights are best for this while winter is okay.
Дарья Юрьевна – :
I love this, but in my opinion “De La Marque Brune” by Armaf is a perfect clone of both this and the original Allure Homme Sport and comes at a fraction of the price. I recommend you to check it out!
-=ARND=- – :
Guys kindly recommend me among this one or edition blan, performance chet… Feed back is much desired, versatility and compliments are the main factors!!!
droyan – :
Don’t always reach for it but when I do it is very pleasant. Citrus, mint, tonka, lasts forever, projects well, non offensive. What more do you want? The more stuff I’ve smelt the more I appreciate this one because it’s super smooth and non synthetic. Great job house of Coco
197405 – :
@driimus huh that’s weird mine says eau de toilette but I bought it not that long ago… I think it’s just a mis label or something cuz it still smells the same, thanks tho
killpainkill – :
@Nick30 both this and Edition Blanche used to be sold as Eau de Toilette Concentree and have since been relabelled as Eau de Parfum.
frans2 – :
Does Eau Extreme come in an EDT?? Got a bottle of Chanel Allure Homme Sport eau extreme but it says EDT on the bottom? It shouldn’t
Gremlen – :
Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme is a sporty, powdery, semi-sweet, “sport” fragrance that smells absolutely incredible. It doesn’t have to be unique to get the job done. Most of us wear fragrance to smell amazing. Nice fragrances are great accessories to presenting yourself as clean, properly dressed, and well groomed. This one is not “unique” in the general sense but the sillage this one leave smells incredibly fresh and handsome. I would be hard pressed to find such an accessible men’s fragrance that’s THIS versatile and garners incredible feedback from the general public. Performance is solid and you can literally wear this particular fragrance for any occasions. Literally…. ANY occasion. There is never a bad time to smell fantastic and this one will always accomplish that.
8/10
Yes.. It’s Chanel so it’s easy to pick on this as being “overpriced” but I think it’s worth every penny. One of the better designer releases stocked at your local mall.
DieSeL – :
This one is basically if you took the original AHS, swapped the citrus/aquatic notes out with mint, and amped up the tonka. The mint gives it a very clean and refreshing vibe.
The smooth minty vibe actually reminds me of Versace Eros, and to a lesser extent Le Male.
bananandrabond – :
I finally got my nose on this one. Upon first wearing I immediately got the same impression as Versace Eros. More of a daytime version of Eros. Maybe it’s the mint and Tonka Bean. I like it but I don’t love it. I really wanted to after everything I’ve read and heard on YouTube. I’ll wear the 8ml. Sample I have of this but I don’t think I’ll buy a bottle. I already have a huge bottle of Eros that I’ll never get through. I’m gonna do a side by side of these two. Does anybody else have both and see the similarities?
Boaloboni – :
Just. Get. It.
This is one of my favorite fragrances, it is so versatile and good.
jelcin – :
I can see a girl who loves more masculine scents pull this off. Kind of feminine at the dry down
serg1980999 – :
Wow! Love this fragrance. Smells so delicious. This fragrance has great projection and staying power. Crazy part I never get compliments when wearing. Still love the fragrance.
Can anyone tell why I never get compliments?
andrey59 – :
Brilliant. One of my top 10 Fragrances. Fresh enough to use it in high summer heat and sweet enough for winter and fall. Pretty versatile. Deeper and more intersting version of already Amazing allure homme sport. Performance is great and will get you notice for first 4 Hours and people will compliment you.
Scent:9/10
Performance:8/10
Irina1985 – :
No idea why they called it sport. This should have been a fragrance on its own. Nevertheless, it is sophisticated, balanced and high class fragrance. It lasts and projects reasonably well. Great work scent, that can be used all year around. Without the doubt, one of the best designer fragrances on the market. And yes, a lot better than Bleu.
Sorry, but there just are no cons. Deal with it or buy it.
Scent: 9/10
Performance: 8/10
Versatility: 9/10
Alekc_3 – :
Opens like Allure Homme Edition Blanche,powerful citrus notes, positive point for me because I love Edition Blanche more than other flankers of this line.
then I can smell a watery kind of notes like watery notes in “Acqua Essenziale Colonia Salvatore Ferragamo” but not strong like S.F.A.Essenziale and again positive point for me because I dislike that kind of watery notes.
finally base notes going to play with your nose very smooth and nice.
I give Edition Blanche 10/10 so I think 8.5/10 is good point for AHS eau extreme.
Production date: 2017-11

udachaudacha – :
Amazing fragrance. Nothing really sporty about this one to be honest. The silage and the way it smells in the air is absolutely gorgeous. Beast mode performance. Projects like crazy and lasts for 12+ hours. Smells amazing. I’ve gotten ridiculous compliments with this one. Very versatile. 10/10 in every category. A must have fragrance for sure.
BEN_23_11_84 – :
Too much tonka, not fresh enough for my taste…Longevity is poor, as for any of chanel for men perfume on my skin…
zhd – :
I don’t get the performance ratings on this. I don’t find this to be a scent that lasts or projects that great. Maybe average at best. The dior sport 2017 has better performance than this one. Odd.. Am I the only one?
This scent is nice I can see why people like it, but I think it is a little overrated. I have smelled similar scents out there before but maybe this one does it better? I think what makes the scent nice is it takes a little of the allure sport dna and mixes it with a vanilla type slight mint scent you would find in ero’s or JPG popeye etc. So it has a little of the fresh tones, and allure dna with that vanilla type popular smell..
Scent 4.5/5
Performance 3/5
Prohorsergio – :
Great performance, awesome longevity. If you’re into creamy vanilla scents, you’ll love this. If not, like myself, I don’t recommend this one. The creamy vanilla is almost all I could smell through the life of this, and quite frankly it got old quick. Not a blind buy recommendation from me, definitely sample first. I almost blind bought this due to the hype and praise by reviewers talking about compliments, but glad i didn’t because it’s certainly not cheap.
None the less, it’s definitely an awesome fragrance, just far from my preferences.
mister1970 – :
Warm & Inviting orange & tonka. – (and yes, women love it).
I only wear Eau Extreme in the evening when I’m going out or in the cooler months.
I’m not into heavy, sweet frags, but Eau Extreme is just the right balance of thick tonka sweetness and oranges.
On my skin, Eau Extreme lasts quite a long time (compared to the other Chanels – Bleu, Blanche, etc..)
al1983 – :
I myself dont like the mint note added to this fragrance. When it dries down, it smells kind of sour and weird. I love the AHS/Versace pour homme smell a lot, but both of them dont last long, so sad.
MaGiRuSX – :
@Chazas thanks a lot for the info & heads up, was looking at listings on Ebay being quite sceptical. According to some short research some fakes is pretty well-made, except the content of course, so now i’m definitely staying away from unauthorized sellers
Kindest regards,
dimych – :
For some reason I didn’t know like this fragrance. I bought my cologne at Macy’s. I put some in my arm and the first smell that came to my mind was mont blanc individuel. Smells good but why would I spend 120$ when I can use mont blanc individuel that cost 24$. I was expecting something better than blue channel. I saw many reviews and YouTube videos and everyone has good comments, but i rather buy another fragrance with a different smell. Smell good but not like wow this is something everyone will like. Also I had some test colognes from channel and this smells like the regularallure homme sport.

I also have 2015 – EDP batch and it doesn’t perform beastmode or all day.
Maybe 6 hours, not too bad but nothing great. More important – it doesn’t seem to project much.
Never had EDT, but I tested EDT back then and on skin. I ordered it online from registered fragrance store and got EDP version.
It’s a nice versatile scent, but for the price it should be close to or be beastmode.
The price keeps going up too. When I bought it, it was 92.70 now it’s 106,49 for same 100 ML bottle.
Probably won’t rebuy, despite it being one of my favorite scents of 25-30 I own. Move on to another signature scent when im out.

@dda
have two batches of ASHEE, EDP batch from 2015 and it is as potent as EDT from 2013. Performance is incredible, projects all day and on clothes it lasts for weeks.
People that complain about performance issues on ASHEE probably bought online and got diluted fakes. I myself bought both while traveling from Duty Free.
I would never buy any Chanel fragrances online, unless it is straight from Chanel, there is a reason why Chanel forbids their product sales from online retailers.

smells like a very fresh le male, back bottle worthy

I have a 2012 original version of this along with la nuit 2010 4 batch code variant for sale on ebay.co.uk now for fans of this fragrance.
Its a very nice fragrance, it gets alittle boring after a while though. It has no WOW factor to my nose.

This is my first review, and I am kinda new to this world but I was really disappointed when I tried this one. It was ok scent at the opening, nothing special, but later on it was all powdery and floral, friends thought it was feminine and I just dont like that kind of a scent. I don’t think it’s worth the money unless you really like this kind of scents, it’s just not for me, but must say that it lasted very long, even after I took a shower I could smell it for a quite long time.

I tried this fragrance in the store many times and really like the opening, after 1 hour mark i found that the dry down was very similar Versace Eros, i think this is due to the Tonka bean. And this is kind a hold me back to buy since i have Eros already, and it’s quite expensive also.

Brilliant fragrance as expected from chanel.
This opens similarly to the original Allure Homme Sport but goes heavily musky and creamy rather than the origina
