What does Kouros Eau de Toilette Tonique 2014 smell like?
Bergamot, star anise and aldehydes give the top a bright, lightly spiced start. In the heart, geranium and patchouli pull the scent towards the earth, while frankincense and Virginia cedar lay a dry, woody base. Oriental and animal facets sit among the accords, but the fresh side stays in front.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. Most voters place it in daytime, office and leisure wear, with evening and night out further behind.
