What does Love Don't Be Shy Extreme smell like?
Love Don’t Be Shy Extreme is a concentrated, floral-forward reimagining of the high-sugar original. While the DNA remains unmistakably gourmand, this version introduces a double dose of Bulgarian rose...
The fragrance is widely recognized for its impressive longevity and projection, with most users agreeing it lasts all day and clings heavily to clothing.
Opinions on the "Extreme" flanker are polarized; while many appreciate the added Bulgarian rose for its sophistication, some enthusiasts find the difference between this and the original version to be subtle.
It is frequently compared to the original Love Don't Be Shy, though community members note that this version feels floral and "grown-up" rather than strictly "juvenile-sweet."
The scent is most popular for evening wear and special occasions during spring and fall, though its high sugar content makes it a risky choice for hot summer days or professional office environments.
Common critiques focus on its "cloying" potential if over-applied, with some users describing a medicinal or "bubble gum" quality in the opening that may be off-putting to those sensitive to synthetic sweetness.
