The review
On paper, Kouros is a reasonable bet if you want Kouros for less.
Palermo Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Kouros's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Palermo Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on aldehydes, coriander and clary sage, turns to carnation, cinnamon and patchouli, and settles into leather, musk and civet. That is the brief Kouros is working from.
Top
- aldehydes
- coriander
- clary sage
Heart
- carnation
- cinnamon
- patchouli
Base
- leather
- musk
- civet
Honeyed civet and hot skin over aromatic herbs, either magnificent or offensive.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
