What does Kinski smell like?

The opening is carried by bergamot, aldehydes, juniper, cannabis and blackcurrant. In the heart, rose, nutmeg and magnolia give a floral, spicy middle, while castoreum and marine notes add an animal, slightly synthetic texture. The base dries down to vetiver, patchouli, suede and benzoin, with resinous, smoky and leathery accords weighing heaviest.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is mostly placed in the evening and night-out slots. It reads masculine and classic. Arrogance pour Homme and Léonard pour Homme have a close profile.
