I have sampled Bois 1920 Classic at Bergdorf and had become inclined to take home a bottle in the near future. Shortly after, I became aware of complaints about the Classic concerning poor longevity, or weak body, or both. I also become aware that these very complaints prompted the firm to create an Extreme version of the product targeted for solving these initial problems. As I have yet to sample either, it would seem sensible to buy, Extreme, which plays slightly better on user review pages and which costs exactly the same amount.
Now, I have heard that pure EO can converted to a crude but effect fragrance through dilution with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). The idea strikes me that if I purchase Extreme and find it too strong, that I can dilute it with as described. To someone who has better knowledge of these subjects, does this plan have more the appearance of sensible thinking, or more that of impending disaster masterminded by a zealous halfwit?
