What does Kouros Eau de Toilette Tonique 2013 smell like?
It wears with good longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters pick summer and spring, with leisure, daily wear and the office named most often. Many call it masculine, while others find it classic or modern.
The top is mugwort, lemon and orange blossom, with citrus and aquatic accords keeping it cool. Jasmine, cinnamon and marine notes form the heart, and the spice warms that freshness slightly. Virginia cedar, leather and patchouli settle underneath as a woody, animalic base.
