Indeed "Extreme". This IMO is not for women....and I wouldn't want a man to smell like this either. The more unisex scents I try, the more I get the impression, it's just about being harsh, loud and stinky? This is horrible.

Uniquely male. For women, too rough, chuffy.

This smells like a Perfum version of Davidoff's Zino. It's really, really close. Thicker and maybe it's a tad smoother, and dries down a bit slower. A perfected Zino? Maybe but even vintage Zino can be had for a fraction of the price. I love Zino and if I was rich I'd be happy to have Bois 1920 Extreme. I can't say it's better then Zino even if cost was equal. But if you love Zino and have money to blow go for it. Quality stuff. It's like the difference between Terre D' Hermes EDT and EDP. It has a thickness and weight that sometimes can be preferred.

weird... I could have sworn that there is leather in this composition! Well, I find it manly and femme-fatale type at the same time. It is a gothic fragrance to me! With time I get more geranium and lavender and that is still fine. I would not say it is a woody perfume. Does not smell woody to me.

I'm a woman and I absolutely love it. I'm sure it smells good on a man too but on me it smells heavenly. Not too masculine at all.

Bois 1920 Extreme is quite a good suprise. The opening is definitely manly with bitter and smoky green herbaceous accord (sorry but I don't get any fern here). It has a retrò-feel that I quite appreciate. In the drydown it developes to a sweeter velvety bourbon frangrance with Vanilla and Tonka Beans. The whole fragrance is well balanced, warm, absolutely comfortable and elegant. Although Extreme is a quite intense perfume it's not overwhelming and the Bourbon gives the Vanilla and Tonka Beans end a nice character and an exra touch of luxury. I don't know how it would be on a woman, but it's perfect on a man. Like it.

Pitbull friend's description of "boozy" is an accurate one. I think it would make a great summer scent option for men who typically prefer woody-orientals. It has a lighter feel to it than I expected, and it smells delicious.

A tad on the masculine end of the spectrum for a unisex scent, though. I think the lavender note is pushing it in that direction, ever so slightly. Overall, it feels so well done that I wonder if I might still be able to get away with wearing it.

I must add that when my fiance tested it, it lasted approximately 24 hours on his skin.

As the name implies this is extremely strong. Very few scents has the longevity and throw of the 1920's beast.Me and habby tested and although it's an alluring perfume it's way too much and it lacks balance. We both love the opening green and bright as if you get a good dose of mountain air. But in a sec the jasmine kicks in, and although it's not skunky or indolic it's just too rich. The drydown is velvety and luxurius with the full adition of tonka bean.good scent just a bit overpowering.
