About this deal

I couldn't stop being amazed when I saw all the scents YSL had and has. Paris, Rive Gauche, Jazz, Opium, Kouros, those were all terms to me. But beyond that I was still quite ignorant. But that should change with the closer study of the extensive perfume database. Due to the cool-looking course, Body Kouros can also be worn in milder temperatures in spring. In summer I have not tried it yet. It is truly remarkable how the perfumer was able to create such complexity and depth using just five different notes. The mintiness and smoky incense continue to play a prominent role in this stage, contributing to the fragrance’s distinctive character.

Wonderful top note with gently spicy, pleasantly sweet aromas, eucalyptus, slightly oriental, top shelf life and beautiful projection and sillage. Several female compliments at work, (unfortunately none as attractive and sexy as my wife....yes Alice Schwarzer, white, is sexist and not pc...I do not care, complete :))....) Yves Saint Laurent had a lasting impact on the realm of fragrance in addition to his influence in fashion. In 1964, the brand released its first fragrance, Y for Women, followed by the renowned scent Pour Homme in 1971.Metropolitan Museum of Art. 2012. The Metropolitan Museum of Art Guide. p. 64, New York: The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Bluebaron stays on the ground floor and goes purposefully to the YSL shelf...claw towards Kouros EdT...but then...what does it say there? Conclusion: Must live to be 137 years old to consume all supplies of this wonderfully unique fragrance...but with 136 I buy myself another supply...if it still exists! The performance showcases impressive longevity and projection. This fragrance has a commendable ability to linger on the skin for 8 – 10 hours with moderate projection.

And in comparison to the original Kouros no animal is sneaking around. That makes the scent for me in any case wearable and sympathetic. Ysl Kouros was created by Pierre Bourdon in 1981. He was also one of the few Edmond Roudnitska’s students who inherited his inherited rigorous perfume technique of creating perfumes as works of art. When I recently won the consolation prize at a raffle of Molihuacha (thanks again for that) I was very curious what I would get. What can I say? I wasn't disappointed. All these delicious scents! About one, Body Kouros, I would like to say a few words today. If I knew the original kouros inside and out, this scent was completely alien to me until now. Shortly after the first spraying it was clear that this fragrance had nothing to do with the original Couros. A combination of benzoin, synthetic incense, as well as balsamic green herbs with a slight aniseed touch, caused by eucalyptus and some sage filled the air. For me this mixture caused a pronounced cooling effect in the nose. This lasted about an hour before the eucalyptus note weakened somewhat and a woody fragrance interspersed with incense came to the fore. However, the eucalyptus remained in different intensity over the entire course of the fragrance. After another four hours Body Korous finally dried to a dry, almost dusty incense scent. The spicy parts, just like the sweetness, had almost completely disappeared. Instead, only a thin mist of incense with a light anise note remained.

Identifying kouroi and korai

With its blend of aromatic eucalyptus notes and sensual benzoin and incense undertones, this fragrance embodied the essence of masculinity and elegance at the start of new millennia. Ultimately, I always suggest sampling a fragrance before buying a full bottle, but I believe that it offers a unique and distinctive quality that justifies its price.

If the scent had a color for me, it would be a masculine pink cloud. Haha, yes I know... very contrary, right? ;) A description that most people might also say is, I think Body Kouros is very Le Male by nature. There's this sweetie with an oriental touch. But there is a concise masculine chord, and an ethereal (Le Male even maritime) freshness that cushions the whole. Overall, I’m a big fan of presentations like these, and sometimes it is a pleasure to see something different that typical unified bottle designs fragrance brands bombard us with these days. My Experience With Perfume i recommend this one even in the newer formulation. Of course the vintage has better quality and has a more disctinct eucalyptus note but, it's still Body Kouros and it still performs and smell good. This gives it an interplay between human and animalic powdery musks that should have been stronger, and present, without being somewhat one-dimensional.Yves Saint Laurent is the French fashion house founded by Yves Henri Donat Mathieu-Saint-Laurent. The house and designer are often abbreviated as YSL. When it comes to perfumes, from the 80s up until the late 2000’s Yves Saint Laurent was one of the most influential and creative houses that released hit after hit. Today, anything but business and short trips to the store is probably a no-go. Suit and tie attire work best with Yves Saint Laurent Kouros. Uniqueness and value for money You may either love or find this flanker to be nothing extraordinary, but I am grateful that even to this day, there is nothing quite like its scent, and that is the true beauty of this flanker.
