I love Kiton clothes, so I was excited to try their fragrances. This is hard to find at discounters, so when a bottle popped up on eBay for $200 with just a few sprays missing, I finally made my blind buy. I don't think the reviews describe well how I perceive this, but it's still a relatively safe blind buy. Put simply, this is a marginally more masculine, slightly spicy, and a touch more medicinal (maybe from oud) version of MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait. Wearing them side-by-side, I personally prefer BR540E by a small amount, but BR540E technically is a bit cheaper per ML from discounters, so it would be a great replacement for it. Performance is quite good: all day and with nice projection/sillage. The oud is very "Western" and again, on the medicinal and easy to wear side of the spectrum. My wife doesn't care a lot about fragrances and has pretty basic tastes for them. She likes this one and immediately agreed it smells very similar to BR540. She had the same assessment that Baccarat was slightly better. This fragrance is upscale and would make a great signature scent, wearable anywhere and any season, but does favor the cold a little more in my opinion since it is a little heavy. Definitely is a bit mature (e.g. age 25+). I personally think it's unisex, leaning masculine. Overall, I'm glad I got it. It's a high quality fragrance, albeit I must admit it comes across kinda synthetic. Not necessarily a bad thing. Is it worth its full retail price of $340 USD? To me, no... I think there are more interesting things to be had for the same or less money. It's similar in quality to many fragrances generally around that price point, but wouldn't be my first choice if having to spend that much. 9/10.

Wonderful fragrance. A very powdery and luxurious scent, yet highly sophisticated, with saffron, oud, and musk cutting through. This has the potential to be a signature everyday fragrance due to its versatility. However, I would say it matches very well with suits and office attire, as well as date nights. The scent radiates through clothing, and you will receive compliments from it. I would not blind buy this fragrance, however. This fragrance is not for everyone.

It was the most unique oud leather scent I've ever bought, but €300 was a bit pricey. I can't give a specific example that would remind you of it or resemble it, but you can easily sense the Tom Ford Tuscan Leather vibe. It's a clean, deep, very dark green, and quite unique perfume. I think it's suitable for general taste. I think it's an overlooked perfume. 8.5/10

Incredible scent. If you can find a sample/tester display of this juice it is worth a spray. Absolutely glorious

Amazing fragrance, very sophisticated and with a surprisingly nice longevity. Definitely a buy!
