The review
On paper, Extreme Purple is an outside bet if you want Ultraviolet for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Ultraviolet's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
It is $89 per 100ml.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Perfume Parlour publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot, mint and green notes, turns to coriander, amber and woody notes, and settles into vanilla, ambergris and musk. That is the brief Extreme Purple is working from.
Top
- bergamot
- mint
- green notes
Heart
- coriander
- amber
- woody notes
Base
- vanilla
- ambergris
- musk
Cool mineral freshness over warm amber vanilla, futuristic in a distinctly 1999 way.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.

Of the 8 twins of Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet we can price, Extreme Purple is number 5 on price per 100ml.
