WoodyWhat does Kouros Eau d'Été 2006 smell like?
It opens with tarragon, Faassen's catnip and bergamot, then moves to rosemary and jasmine in the heart. The base of musk, cedar and amber softens it into a slightly sweet, woody finish. Spicy and animal tones stay in the background.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. It reads masculine, and suits warm weather and easy everyday wear for those who want freshness. Kouros Eau d'Été 2002 and Kouros Eau d'Été 2005 have a close profile.
