- In this video I let you know if Spicebomb Extreme from Viktor & Rolf is still worth buying in 2023!
Since its release Spicebomb Extreme from Viktor & Rolf has been massively hyped and popular throughout the fragrance community.
The brand says;
It has explosive composition, which highlights aromatic lavender in unique way thanks to hot and tart spices. Lavender is mixed with caraway and black pepper, leaving a trail of hotness above masculine shades of tobacco and subtle, comfortable vanilla.

I am 70. I got Extreme and women have gone crazy over it. AND they are younger women. Lot of compliments. I like more subdued fragrances usually. Armani Code is a fav for me.
Yes this one smells great on other people. Armani code also a true classic!
lol I died reading this
Lol! I see you old playa 👍🏾
Go ahead, playa !!! Bang them old hoes 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
At 70 it doesn't matter what fragrance you wear 😊 ...
I love this! Great for the winter!
Solid winter standby!
Love the video G stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Thanks Antwain appreciate it my man.
Great review
Appreciate it my man thank you.
Good video, breakdown etc
Thanks Vance!
I’m 22 and into those spicy + vanilla fragrances, and I love Spicebomb Extreme. I remember first trying it in a Sephora and knew the hype was for me. This, CK One Shock (Cheapie), Burberry London (Cheapie), Dior Homme Intense, Givenchy Gentleman Reserve Privee, and Maison Margiela Replica Jazz Club are my biggest go-tos in the winter.
All amazing fragrances and lend themselves to the cold winter weather. DHI is my personal favorite from that list!
By the fireplace maison margeilla is a great addition if you’re into spicy chestnut
Great video 👍🏾 Gerard I love the original SpiceBomb never smelled this one but really don’t think I need to pick this one up. Honestly the original last for awhile to.
Thank you my man 🙏🏼
Gerard, I love Spicebomb Extreme by Viktor&Rolf in the Fall & Winter. It is one of the best designer scents in the colder weather. I also love Bvlgari Man In Black in the colder weather as well. Great video as always.
Thank you for sharing!
Ordered and waiting for my Spice bomb , hope i will love it as i really love Vanilla and tobacco
I think you'll love this one then! Let me know
Picked up Spice and Black Vanilla this past Monday from Walmart. Did a couple of test sprays on skin and I was impressed. This fragrance is designer quality that punches way above it's $20 pricetag. I thought Blue Cedar and Cypress by Cremo was good, but Spice and Black Vanilla is greatness on a different level. Glad that my local Walmart had it in stock and I was finally able to add it to my collection. Can't wait to rock this fragrance to a Steelers home game in December.
Mac it really is damn good. Of the 3 I mentioned in the video, my wife prefers it over all of them.
I’m 100% with you on this Gerard! I own Spice & Black Vanilla, MIB, & Infrared. As a result, I’ve never pulled the trigger on picking up Spicebomb Extreme. I’m an older guy that prefers more mature scents and generally navigate towards frags I feel comfortable wearing to the office. Unless I come across this for a great price, like at a rack store, I don’t ever see myself owning a bottle.
Thats where and WHY I grabbed my bottle. Good price at the rack. Its nice but like you I prefer the more mature takes.
It's worth the hype. It's personally my favorite fragrance
It’s July and I’m getting butterflies in my stomach at the idea that I’ll be able to wear this again this autumn and the freezing winter
Summer is gone to quick my friend!
I actually really like the night vision edp, despite my general indifference to sweet modern men's frags.
CK one Shock still has me using it constantly. I have tons of different fragrances and I always reach for the cheapies
I love spicebomb infared as well
Exactly! Shock is excellent just a really addictive cheapie.
cheap frags are shite
Haven’t smelled Spicebomb Extreme but love the OG. I had and sold Spice & Black Vanilla because it was ‘meh’ for me. Definitely need to revisit MIB because I remember liking it when I sampled it at a duty free a long time ago. Nice breakdown!
Thank you brotha. Yea MIB is excellent.
OG spicebomb is better IMO. Extreme is very loud, very perfumey if you will
I bought the spice bomb extreme a few weeks ago. I love it!
Nice pick up Jalon!
How was the longevity and projection?
Since it’s a new batch
Just tested the original Spicebomb at the Airport Duty Free and bought it on the spot😊
So good!
I have the red, the green edp and the original. I. Like the original the best. I find it to be smoother and just generally more pleasant.
The OG is great very wearable and versatile in most situations.
Spicebomb Infrared is my winter favourite! I like the EDT better than the EDP; but the EDP still rocks!
Thank you for this review.
Very well done. 👍😉
Appreciate that Wayne thank you brotha 🙏🏼
Whats edt and edp means ?
I’ve been layering this with a vanilla bean roll on oil with four sprays of sb extreme, three on the chest one on the back of the neck. it makes this vanilla rye whiskey smell… sensational. 💯 lasts 9 hours too
Wow this sounds really nice. Do you recommend a roll on oil?
Sephora has several frags from this line on the shelf. After using Spicebomb and Spicebomb Extreme from the store a few times -- the last two times side by side, I found I liked the original EDT better and found a 90 ml for $50, so... Also grabbed Infrared EDT 50 ml for $45 which has a lot of awesome "red" notes, and Nightvision EDP 90 ml for $72 (through the Sephora sampler). Eau Fraiche is on my decant wishlist, but would blind buy for the right price. Extreme is still too expensive for me to buy something so redundant in my collection.
All fantastic points. I can't remember if I mentioned to test this at sephora in the vid.
I have Cremo Black spice and vanilla the solid version for a few years. Month ago I bought V&R Spicebomb...never smelled before.
And to my nose they are pretty similiar, I tought spicebomb will be a new experience to me, but they are the same and cremo is a fraction of price.
They are very close. The cremo is a bit fresher to my nose. I actually did a video comparing the two.

Hey G, do you end up returning any/a lot of the perfumes that you purchase? I'm really curious about whether you do, or if you don't mind having a massive collection of pretty decent fragrances.
If a fragrance doesn't meet high standards for me, I generally return em'.
Occasionally I will Jack and just get a store credit for something else but that’s usually if I really can’t recommend something or use for future content. I also give some away. I sort of have a system in the sense I rotate things in and out but I’ve noticed I’ve gotten rid of less over the last 6 months. I’m due for a cleaning haha.
@@gerardgeorge Thanks for the fast reply Gerard! That really stands out. I'm also fairly surprised by your response- your collection must be enormous by now lol
I have and I love Spicebomb OG and it is ok. 😁 And probably in near future I will buy Night vision or Infrared edp.
Yea infrared is awesome. I also like nightvision edp.
Infrared edt is better than the edp
Hype or no hype, Spice Bomb Extreme works for me, lasts a long time and I get more compliments wearing this than anything else I've used.
There you go!
Is it true that is reformulated and doesnt project that great?
@@HisokaM0rowit project good
I have both spicebomb edt and sbe. For me the edt is way better but I get it why most women would love this
Yea I can see it but it’s definitely not my most complimented.
Hey Gerrard, Spice Bomb Extreme is without a doubt my most positively complimented fragrance. It’s annoying when your wife doesn’t like a fragrance. I have a similar scenario with Dior Homme Intense which I bought a big 150ml bottle and struggle when to wear it.
I can see this being a big compliment getter. Steve I feel you on the DHI. My wife thinks its just ok.
My wife also don’t like Dior homme intense.. I just wear it anyways 😶🤣
My girlfriend doesn't like ADG Profumo and now I'm questioning my future with her lol
F*ck her, over spray and call it a day.
I tried it at Saphora and it just smells like old Church to me....and thank God it didn't perform because I couldn't stand it. Love your content 🤝
I appreciate it brotha thank you 🙏🏼
Does it have similarities with tom ford tobacco vanille? I saw that the scent profiles are same and am thinking of buying this over TV to save few bucks
Not really to my nose this is far more spice than the TF
What do you guys think? Spicebomb Extreme or JPG Le Male Le Parfum for a vanilla heavy winter scent? I've been on the fence about picking this one up for awhile...
Le Male Le Parfum! More complex and more versatile!
I personally like Le Parfum but more but its not as vanilla heavy as spicebomb.. You may want to try Givenchy Gentleman EDP as well.
By The Fireplace by Maison Margiela. It will change your life.
I really enjoyed the overspray (is that one word or two?) story. Just think, you could've had one corner of the Bar all to yourself. 😊
Great point! Little alone time never hurt anyone right!?
@@gerardgeorge Exactly, especially if you happen to be pulling for the other team.
Great…Honest Review! I agree that Spicebomb Extreme is good only for Winter but…Spicebomb infrared is much better for Winter!!! SB Infrared is almost Perfect for Winter. SB Infrared smells like Christmas in a bottle.
Thank you Greg appreciate it 🙏🏼
Not the best performer in my case, the OG is longer lasting in my case. But the quality is through the roof ! Nice review
The OG is kind of slept on I'm with you.
love your accent
Thank you!
Azzaro wanted by night is way better and lasts longer and is so smooth and a complement beast, I've had both and both are great but would go for the Azzaro 100%
Wanted by Night is excellent
I agree.
I'm wondering if it is worth picking up Initio Rehab if you already have SB Extreme. I've heard Rehab has more depth and wearability and is more likable overall.
When I tested Rehab all I could think about was this they are too close for me to own both.
This one's on my radar. I got spicebomb night vision edt and its longevity is 2-3 hrs at most. Very pleasant but weak performance with SB night vision edt.
Yea it was just ok for me too.
How do you like the original Spicebomb? Perhaps a follow-up review needed on that one for comparison 🤩 !
I like it! Its a more wearble, fresher take on the DNA. Really nice scent.
I’ve never had a scent get more compliments in my live. SB extreme is the real deal
I wore it this week!
Bvlgari Man in Black is October in a bottle if you live in New England. Spicebomb Extreme is more playful and I found it kind of boring. The MIB is more serious and complex. You are 100% correct!
Wow fantastic description! My birthday is also in October so maybe I’ll make this my scent of the day!
Man I can't get enough of this scent. I just want to eat myself because I smell so good. Easily became my favorite. That vanilla when it settles gives you that warmth with that spice 🔥 Idk about you but this is definitely super masculine and sexy and gives me that confidence. Never understood what girls meant when they love gourmand scents but this is what they mean when they say something is sexy. Because they literally want to eat you as do I. I would say this scent can wear you if you are skinny so more recommended for masculine guys or pack a little more muscle
Glad you love it!
November 26th 2023
Wife and I went Black Friday shopping. I saw Spicebomb Extreme at Sephora. I tried it and thought it was awesome. Wife couldn't stand it, "it's too strong", she said. I sprayed it on my wrist. They were out of stock. On the way home my wife smelled it again and thought it was great. Ordered it online and saved money.
Nice! Yea its always good to try a fragrance a couple times. There have been fragrances that my wife has hated at first then comes around to it.
The way you pronounce the letter "a" in words is funny and cool at the same time lol. Are you from boston?
Thank you! I am hahaha
@gerardgeorge you remind me of the movie "the town". They're from Boston too lol
How does it perform during summer? Is it advisable to wear during summer?
You could but I would keep it to evenings
Totally agree with your point of it being super straightforward and plain. Personally, Id only reach for it for it's longevity and projection. Smell wise, Herod by PDM is better
Love Herod
Herod costs the same as my monthly salary sir.
I bought Spicebomb Extreme about 8 months ago without smelling it first. I was not impressed at all. Then while watching this vid I sprayed it on my wrist and damn it smells much MUCH better from the first time I sprayed it!!!! I’ll say that my atomizer is garbage on mine which is quite common sad to say. Sprays big droplets
Sometimes you just gotta give a fragrance some time. It’s happened to me as well so I don’t like to give up on a fragrance immediately. Glad you like it!
Mine wasn't in your face powerful. I found it to be only slightly spicy and not too sweet. Didn't find that it projected all that well either. But I liked the scent. Typically like a better attention grabber for Fall and Winter. This is fine, it's very good, but way overhyped and not great. Going to try Man In Black after your mention.
Yes definitely try Man In Black. Its my favortite of the two.
I limit my collection to 20 so I try to avoid redundant. I already own Man In Black so I've not really gotten into the Spicebombs.
Stick with the MIB!
I stayed in bunker hill last winter walked to a bar I think the tavern at the end of the world an I had the fragrance with me I remember getting few compliments that evening it worked out pretty good for me that night they had live band playing an tons of Celtics fans😂
Yes sir! You must have been in Charlestown. That's where they filmed the Town!
@@gerardgeorge yessir I also stay in somerset a lot for work got few friends I met that live in Brockton
@@gerardgeorge great movie love that movie my friends older guys an man the stories they tell me how it was growing up in Boston is unreal MOBBED OUT
i got 90ml for 68 ml for extreme and got the 50ml for 30 of original is extreme good like many people say?
I like it it’s just not my favorite in the line.
On an average use,how long would it last until the bottle runs out?
Man if its the only one your wearing everyday...a year maybe?
I do get a headache from spicebomb extreme. What ingredient could it be that causes that?
Its just super strong. More likely a aroma chemical that just doesn't agree with you. Its not uncommon.
Thnks by the way
You’re very welcome!
I Love this fragrance, wife not so much and she bought this for me 😂
Yeah most vanilla frags are a tough sell for my wife.
I dont get the greatest performance from SB Extreme. Its moderate, get about 6 hours, but people rave like its an 18+ hr scent. My bottle is from 2022, though I do enjoy the scent in cold weather. Fellow Masshole 😊
Masshole!!! Love it
That Cremo is legit !!!!
That's my wifes favorite of the 3 I mentioned!
Do u think the extreme is better then the red one I forgot the name
I lean extreme they are both great though. Infared.
I've never had one compliment wearing this. Yet i have some cheapos and get compliments. I put 4-5 sprays on and i cant smell after 4-5 hours.
Yea thats how it happens for many. I know what you mean.
Cool Buaston accent!
Thanks David!
Alright, at least you gave some alternatives. Not a bad vid I guess but the title was click baity lol since you ended up recommending it anyway. SBE is a staple for a reason and I still feel that way - the only thing that can compete with it is Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille and who is paying that price just to compete with something just nearly as good, if not better? Tbh I like the scent profile of SBE more because it's even more masculine than the Tom Ford. Which just even feels weird to type, but that's just how good SBE is. Like I said, it punches way above its price point and the performance is still phenomenal. The only thing I own in my collection that outperforms the SBE is Tom Ford's Ombre Leather. And that stuff won't come off of your clothes for MONTHS so yeah, definitely a skin-scent for Ombre
They are both unisex imo.
Dolce& Gabana still gets lots of compliments 🥃🍷
Yep!! Still excellent
Would you say spice bomb Extreme smells similar tol Xerjoff Naxos
Very different fragrances.
How long spicebomb extreme lasts ?
I get a full days wear on skin but will last days on clothes
For me, Natura Homem Tato gives me the same benefits and is much cheaper
Interesting I'll have to check it out.
Le Male Elixir or Spicebomb Extreme?
Haven’t tried elixir yet but will definitely try it.
7:44 I find it extremely confusing how my Cremo Black Vanilla and Spice is almost clear.
Definitely lighting because it’s orange.
because the vanilla ages over time if you macerate it
Is this ok for a teenager??
Yes definitely.
Is this a fragrance that’s possible to wear everyday, during fall and winter? I’m a student btw
It’s a strong one and may not be ideal for class. The OG Spicebomb is probably a better choice.
@@gerardgeorge How about something like Afnan 9pm? Or maybe YSL Y EDP? Do you Think they’ll work as an everyday fragrance in a class room during fall/winter
@@jeseriksen9598 definitely y edp
@@gerardgeorge Bet. Do you have any fragrances I should check out also? And I really enjoy your content!
Did nothing for me. It's OK . The hype was off the charts. Man in Black is better, but that again is not for me.
Understood. This is why I wanted to do this video for the newbies mainly.
So, what is for you then, since you’re so special and nothing is good enough?
The og is best to my nose. Typical when it comes to fragrances. ..opening on extreme is great, then gets sweet tobacco, like a whethers original in a smokers purse. It is likeable, not for hot weather. That's my opinion.
Wow great description!
Spicebomb Extreme - The Patriots Offense in a bottle - Vanilla Centric 😂😂😂
Hahaha. Man I miss the good ole days
@@gerardgeorgeas a Steelers fan. I’m glad those days are over lol
Can teenagers use spicebomb extreme?
Ofc
Definitely
For me cremo spice & black vanilla doesn’t smell like SBE at all it smells more like the original spice bomb
At times it does the same for me then I get extreme it’s back and forth.
I bought it 10ml from my country online, to me it smells so much like Latafa Khamara. I don't know anybody smell like that.?
Haven’t smelled the Lattafa yet but thought that was cloning another fragrance.
When can I swing by to get that one? Your wife is not happy with it. I will take it 😂
On a serious note, in Spain, some stores are not carrying that one, and the buzz is that may get discontinued.
Interesting! Didn't realize that. I will have to be strategic with when and how I wear it this fall and winter.
I disagree i use several sprays but i really enjoy spicebomb
Fair enough!
why dont you mention what batch code do you have, if you talk about differences in batches? -,-
Just to clarify I could care less personally about batches. I think its WAAAAYYYY overblown. If you like the smell that's all that matters.
@@gerardgeorge Here's the thing, the newer batches do perform weaker and if all reviewers made that distinction, the viewers would save money by not purchasing it anymore or to at least seek out the older batches to avoid disapointment.
I have to agree with your wife. I have smelled this fragrance multiple times and I just do not like it.
Yea I thought it was important to mention because this one rarely gets any negative feedback on UA-cam but I don’t find that to be the case in wearing it.
I have infrared, intensely and absolutely. No need to buy extreme. Same sweet scent to my nose.
Yea you are definitely covered!
What do women think? Ultimately that's all that matters.
We’re simple creatures hahaha
Mine Spicebomb Extreme is from 12-2021. Last 2 hours and dies off. EXTREME in DISAPPOINTMENT only 😡
Damn! Maybe a couple others have mentioned something similar. This thing is almost too much on me.
Bought this fragrance from the internet, without being able to test it first, and before watching this video. Hahahaha
You broke all the rules!!! Hahahaha
Bulgari Man in Black is a better version, both very similar
I agree!
Man this stuff to me is VERY over rated by the YFC!
I’m trying to sell my bottle
To me it smells like potpourri
Bvlgari Men In Black is wayyyyyyyy better! Like 10 times!
I can't disagree man I love that MIB!
Two 100 mil for 120 usd I got lucky
Nice finds!
Love Man in Black and Spicebomb Extreme both. I own both Spicebomb Extreme and Infrared, and I have to say I prefer Extreme.
At least we can both agree Nightvision EDT is a let down.
Understood Danny totally get that. I think I just like the cinnamon and fruity element to infrared.
@@gerardgeorge absolutely, just different strokes. I think they're both nice, I just have a clear winner.
That said, I love Man In Black as well, but I think they're pretty distinct from each other. When people say they're identical I just don't get it. There are some similarities sure, but I could easily tell them apart.
I like the og Spicebomb, the Extreme was too much of a good thing imo.
Haha I know what you mean.
Cremo Black Spice + vanilla NOT EVEN CLOSE AT ALL TO SB EX. DONT WASTE YOUR CASH.
Thanks Glenn
As for experiences? Man, girls act really funny when I wear this scent profile lol must be the vanilla and tobacco. You get the overly playful "touch" at work where they just rub all over you and stuff. This fragrance really brings this out of them in the cold weather. Perhaps you might not like it because you oversprayed it that one time...just two is enough, even for the winter time. So I don't even know what a "light spray during the summer time" would even be like lol - mine only gets use in cooler weather tbvh unless I'm feeling frisky
I do like it I’m just conservative with the sprays now. This one lingers hard.
Spicebomb Extreme, not masculine....okay my guy lol that is reaching a little too far. The gay guy working at the store sprayed it on himself cuz I said it was a good fragrance and he was like "yeah but not on me unfortunately" and I was like oh my bad because I totally forgot we are 2 diff types of men lol
Lots of women wear SBE. If you want a more masculine version buy man in black.
@@gerardgeorge "Lots of women wear SBE" That's a lie! Plus, MIB isn't more masculine than SBE.
I have a feeling you wear this around your wife, even though she doesn’t like it 😂
I try not to push it hahaha
Your wife won’t like it cause she will know that other women will love it
Hahahaha great point.
Its reformulated, in 2022 it wasnt
Thanks Karim
But the brand denies that it is refrmulated. I think it’s because new batches are not macerated
It is mid at best. I never wear it
It’s got a lot of hype to live up to that’s for sure
Looks like a judges gavel
I can see that haha.
It’s a panty dropper according to the ladies not men😆
As long as they trustworthy
OG spicebomb is better imo 🤌
Solid scent. I like man in black over both but it’s definitely closer to the OG Spicebomb than the extreme. My favorite sb is infrared.
@@gerardgeorge I'd have to agree. Black is slightly better than OG. I haven't tried Infrared yet
Great review
Thank you!
@@gerardgeorge i was searching for an old batch of this and found one from 2019. I'll test it within a month and report back if that other batch is really as crazy strong as they say
