i sprayed 3 times on my neck yesterday and another 3 on my shirt. It lasted 11 hours on my skin with mild projection. for London weather it's perfect this time of the year it was 4 degree Celsius and cold. I find the lasting power in the heat/summer is only 6 hours as the heat makes the fragrance jump off the skin. also smells better in the cold as it has warm amber/vanilla mandrin notes

This was one of the first fragrances I bought when I decided to update my perfume selection. I had a job interview lined up and felt what I had was good but a little narrow. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd end up falling in love with the art of fragrances and start a massive collection. It's so beautiful and you described it perfectly. It's a shame what IFRA does to these scents over time but I'm glad it still has that inspiring, blissful effect. One of my absolute favorites to wear in the fall when the sun is out and warm but there's a gentle, brisk breeze. I think I'll wear it right now. Thank you so much for all your hard work and passion, Aaron. It just occurred to me though, I wonder what would happen if I layered it with your Oud creation. Guess I'll find out! :D

I'm not complaining cos it is what it is, but the reformulated newer version of this is a shadow of what it was, it used to have more depth, more of a richness and warmth about it. It is still nice now but it doesn't give me them feelings it did back in the day. And that peachy touch in there has practically gone now 😔 but it is what it is and things change

I think you should really, really try Égoïste and Antaeus by Chanel next. Égoïste is the only designer fragrance that's been intentionally made to smell torrid and sexual. It is also the favourite creation of Chanel perfumer Jacques Polge. And Antaeus is an animalic (it contains synthetic castoreum) leather fragrance done in a classic french, Chanel way. Similar to Kouros, but even better.

A reviewer on Fragrantica described Antaeus as a threesome between Kouros, Drakkar Noir and Shalimar which I thought was quite funny and accurate. On the one hand it has that bold and aggressive opening but the projection of the dry down is clean and soapy, almost barbershop like, whereas close to the skin it’s dense, resinous, leathery and a bit sweet. I actually think the current formulation is office safe provided you allow 30mins to an hour for it to settle down first. Egoiste I didn’t get at first; this isn’t a fragrance known for its great opening. Opens a bit sour. The drydown is delicious cinnamon and sandalwood.
@vukasinstanisavljevic4387

@@EOTA564 I agree. Antaeus is quite wearable now after the opening. But the opening is my favourite part. Égoïste I couldn't get either. The opening has a majorly synthetic citronellol top note. But somewhere in the mid drydown is my favourite part, where it gets musky with some ambrette and a major carnation note.
