As the name suggests, Michael Kors Extreme Journey Eau de Toilette really takes you on a sensory adventure, transporting you to exotic deserts with its spicy-warm fragrance. A traditionally masculine scent, images of cowboys in old Western films sprung to mind when I first smelt Michael Kors Extreme Journey. As the fragrance settles on the skin, it seems more refined and modern but still has a leathery heat and effervescent spicy tone to it, which is truly intoxicating.
This Fragrance Smells Like…
Subtly spicy pink pepper plays with refreshing grapefruit in the opening top notes, which are balanced by aromatic nuances that draw you in to explore the rest of the fragrance. Deep woody tones, patchouli and papyrus warm the heart of the scent, which is powered by a Desert Woods Accord. The sensual leather of the base creates a powerful, rugged experience as the raw aroma partners with resinous myrrh and oak moss for a wild, textured finish.
What’s The Story Behind This Scent?
Inspired by a thrilling race through Saharan sands, the warm and exotic scent takes several exciting twists and turns as different notes rise to the surface, mimicking the rising of the sun until the final raw woody fragrance warms the skin.
