I was finally able to obtain a tester of Lapidus Black Extreme - the bottle looks nice dressed in black and silver.
The fragrance notes are - Top-Orange, Black Pepper, Violet Leaf Middle - Orange Blossom, Cinnamon, Safron Bottom - Cistus Labdanum, Tonka Bean, Cedarwood.
Thought it is not listed I get a very stong Wintergreen note in this fragrance. The orange blossom and safron create a very sweet middle that follows all the way down to the base. That sweetness is very much like others on the market - Jaguar Excellence, 1 Million, etc. BUT what makes Black Extreme unique is that strong Wintergreen note that keeps pumping in the background which cuts the sweetness. I feel that Wintergreen note is like a node to the original Lapidus which is also sweet but herbal spicy.
I was really happy with this one for it is unique but *sigh* so short on sillage and longevity about after 2 hours it starts fading down really fast for an Extreme scent
