Drunk Lovers Extrait Extreme: An Intoxicating Oriental Woody

BORNTOSTANDOUT® introduced Drunk Lovers Extrait Extreme in 2026, a new Oriental Woody perfume designed for both men and women. This extrait de parfum was composed by Jordi Fernández, a nose known for crafting bold narratives.

The name suggests a heady romance, and indeed the fragrance opens with a potent swirl of red wine and wine lees, tempered by bergamot and clary sage. It’s a lavish, liquor-laced scent that feels equally at home at a late-night bar or a winter fireside.

The top notes are unmistakably vinous: red wine and wine lees create a fermented, almost jammy impression, while bergamot and clary sage add brightness and a touch of green herbs. The effect is like a mulled wine in perfume form, though more sophisticated.

As it settles, the heart emerges with brandy, Peru balsam, and a rich pairing of jasmine and jasmine sambac. Davana contributes a curious fruity, wine-like facet, while ginger adds a gentle spark that lifts the blend without becoming sharp.

The base is a dark, resinous affair: Akigalawood, oud, and leather form a smouldering core, with tonka bean and labdanum lending sweetness and warmth. The overall impression is ambery, balsamic, and softly vanillic, with a subtle leathery edge.

Official accords describe the scent as wine-forward, woody, amber, balsamic, warm spicy, vanilla, and leather — a complex mix that unfolds slowly on the skin. It’s the kind of fragrance that rewards patient wearing.

Early reviews place the fragrance at a solid 4.03 out of 5, based on 34 ratings. While the sample size is small, the score suggests that this extrait has already found an appreciative audience among lovers of unconventional gourmand-woody hybrids.

This will appeal to adventurous fragrance collectors, wine and spirits enthusiasts, and anyone who craves a bold, leathery, boozy signature. It’s particularly suited to autumn and winter evenings, and to those who dislike safe, mass-market scents.

Drunk Lovers Extrait Extreme is a confident, characterful extrait that lives up to its theatrical name. With its wine-soaked heart and leathery, woody base, it’s an exceptional choice for making an impression.
