How it moves
Cognac hit first, the way an opening line should. By the half hour it has become cinnamon, Tonka Bean and oak. What is left hours later is praline, vanilla and sandalwood, and that is the part people follow you for.
What wearers say
4.29 out of 5 across 9,800 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.
- Widely praised as a realistic boozy gourmand, though many find the sweetness heavy and best in cold weather.
- Excellent longevity and projection are frequently noted, with the cognac-cinnamon opening singled out as its highlight.
- Some consider it a hyped crowd-pleaser and note similarity to cheaper cinnamon-vanilla alternatives.
Who made it
Benoist Lapouza composed it in 2020, for By Kilian in France. Launched in 2020 within By Kilian's The Liquors collection, Angels' Share takes its name from whisky evaporating during barrel aging, inspiring its cognac-cinnamon accord.
