What does Kouros Eau de Toilette Tonique 2008 smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the small number of votes means these ratings are only a rough guide. It is positioned as a men's fragrance.

Citrus leads: mandarin orange and bergamot come first, while marine notes and ozone add a cool edge. Amber and woods sit beneath them, giving a woody, lightly spicy base, with a faint animal trace in the background. Zara Absolutely Dark and Hermès Eau de Mandarine Ambrée have a close profile.
