About this deal

Love it. I usually wear Profumo or or Versace pour Homme, Bulgari Aqua marine, and liked Chrome Aqua a bit as it instantly turned into Hugo Boss Man only not as good imo but I like it. A lot of comparisons get made to ADG Profondo, but do not get confused, this is not a clone of that fragrance whatsoever. You'll mostly get the similarities far in the drydown and Profondo has a notable saltiness that Chrome Extreme does not. I'm going to try my best to describe what this reminds me of and trust me this is not a dig at the fragrance. A great summer and hot weather dumb reach, although I wouldn't wear this to any formal events. Good for casual and work/office environments. Also good for the gym, though it is a bit strong, so I'd go easy on the sprays for indoor situations. Phần cổ tay được xịt nước hoa thường có nhiều tác động như lúc rửa tay, đeo vòng, đồng hồ, do đó để đảm bảo mùi hương được duy trì, bạn nên sử dụng nước hoa ở cổ tay ở tần suất nhiều hơn lúc cần thiết.

Currently in the gym scent line up only because the scent profile is too familiar… not a bad thing. Although similar, it does it well with solid performance. Keeping it at 3-5 sprays MAX for gym wear this one I imagine

Although it is unique for the category, it's still a blue fragrance and may smell "generic" to most fragrance connoisseurs. Azzaro Extreme is really good for what it is, at this price point it might be even better than Profondo. This thing lasts 12 plus hours on clothes and projects like crazy when its very hot from skin. It has got the sillage too. But that projection lasts sadly for only 2 hours on skin before turning into a skin scent. Comes now the Eau de Parfum (without the odd presentation -- Pure/Aqua/Extreme just weirdly had those words written toward the top of the bottle face). I'm liking it Chrome EdP. It definitely PROJECTS well. I wish it were more in-line with that musky aluminum/metallic/dare-I-say CHROME smell of the original. This is a very deep, rich, woody aquatic. I appreciate the pine note a lot. It's not quite "pine" in the Polo Green tradition, but it's a fresh, wet pine.

If you want the best from Chrome line up get Chrome Aqua for super fresh tingling citrus burst (sporty vibes) or Extreme for sweet and comforting yet fresh with some depth and earthiness (compliment magnet). Both are great value and worth every penny even at higher price. Drydown: It smells very creamy, soapy, slightly aquatic, and tiny bit spicy. It is a very simple scent and the florals and bright opening that are smelled on the tester strip are lost on skin. The mandarin orange sweetness from chrome extreme is also found here. Update: When indoors where it’s cool, the scent gets much spicier, Looks like it shines indoors. I would wear a suit and eat nice dinner wearing this. Upon first wear it did really well for me in terms of chemistry between my skin/sweat and the aroma chemicals. Well done, well made. Beautiful and stunning. Oh if they could have just left it at Stage 1. The very short lived, but beautiful STUNNER that burns your nostrils is incredible.TLDR one of the best cheap aquatic fragrances in term of performance and scent quality for the price. Good first buy! Opening: On the opening it is very citrusy, synthetic, and bright. The citrus lasts only a few seconds however. For the first 10 Minutes the scent is very bitter and harsh, but once it starts to dry, it gets much better. Most of the opening is just Bitter though. Comparing it with the original Eau de Toilette(EDT) version, it has some similarities, but it has more differences. For example, both are fresh aquatic-style fragrances, but with different nuances, while the EDT is citrusy, metallic and musky, the EDP is citrusy, floral, woody and sweeter. This new version of Chrome is a good addition, as it modernizes the classic version, bringing it closer to current versions of blue fragrances. Chrome Extreme opens with a big blast of citrus and metallic notes. It’s very vibrant, refreshing and has a big push. After 5 minutes the juniper berries and salt join the party, making the scent brighter and adds depth.

Regardless, Chrome Extreme is still a great buy. Honestly think it’s a better offering than ADG Profondo.In the end does it smell good? Absolutely. Does it have the ooomph that the name implies? Definitely. Of the three that I own, this is hands down the best of the trio by a large margin. It has a fresh and fruity opening, with mandarin citrus. As the minutes go by, the aroma of lavender increases, giving it a very floral and aromatic characteristic, as well as some amber sweetness. In the drying phase a woody base of pine can be perceived, but it never loses the amber fruity presence. Drydown: After about an hour the projection drops off or I have become anosmic. The scent is a warm soapy, oceanic scent. Very realistic and pleasant; the best part of the scent. The amber is rich and smells addicting, while also meshing perfectly with the soapy warm scent of cashmeran. The ocean note becomes deeper as if night has fallen and the scent overall becomes more mature. This scent does perform differently in different temperatures, in colder temps it is a sweeter fruitier scent, while in hot weather it is a sharp masculine aquatic with a fresh oceanic vibe. 10/10

I only have 2 other Azzaro juices. The OG Chrome & United. Extreme has a similarity to the original in it's freshness and nothing in common with United as that's a more sweet woods and Tonka based elixer. Azzaro managed to take Extreme and put a subtle but, unique twist with the green citrus & marine note on top and the mids yet managed to make the woods & amber work very well and nicely balanced throughout the compositions life. Not groundbreaking and yes, there is a bit of the ambroxan in there but, it's not as prominent or in your face as others. First of all it is not harsh with mentioned citruses, it does not give shower gel vibe. It is mild and semi-sweet scent with some delicate "peppery" feeling during first 30 minutes. Regarding notes pyramid I don't know from where does this "peppery" impression come from but it's pleasant. 👍🏼 Performance: Projection is low, but when outside shirtless in the sun, performance gets much better. Approx 1ft scent bubble w good silage if outdoors. Longevity is 7-8hrs.. Then after a few more minutes, the saltiness & the sweet water notes and the amber eventually come thru. It retains this saltiness & the sweet water notes and amber throughout the rest of its journey, along with a musky, powdery nuance. The note breakdown pretty much explains the whole experience of this fragrance. I don’t detect any particular notes other than the ones written down.

EXPERIENCE THE FRESHNESS

Very reminiscent to ADG. Great value at discounter price. Nothing wow but I’ll definitely smell good. Id imagine this one will get some compliments for those who care. As for its longevity, with me it remained between 7 and 8 hours, projecting well for the first hour and a half, then its intensity decreases but it leaves a slight aromatic trace. It seems that the perfumer(s) of Chrome Extreme didn't dedicate a lot of space in the formula to unnecessary fixatives, opting instead for a higher concentration of high-impact top and middle notes (n.b. Chrome Extreme is of EDP concentration). This is apparent in the fragrance's impressive projection in the initial ~1.5 hrs. Longevity on the other hand is decent on me (~6-7 hrs; improves when applied on clothing), with the last few hours spent close to the skin. I have had Chrome on my sink counter since 1997. I was really sad when the original Chrome lost it's whole staying power; it would be GONE in about an hour. Totally GONE. However, and I hate to say it, there’s a caveat. The projection power of Chrome Extreme is misleading; it pops off my skin and clothes very strongly for the first 2 hours, therefore at first I suspected the fragrance would last at least 7 hours on my skin. Sadly it only lasts 5 hours on skin, but thankfully 8 hours into the wearing I can still get wafts off my clothes. I think Chrome Extreme behaves like a strong EDT more than its declared concentration.
