Kouros Eau d'Ete 2006

A beautiful light Kouros scent a bit minty and similar to Kouros Sport Cologne. One the very best "waft on the air" scents. A fabulous summer fragrance!

This summer 2012 in the Greek Cyclades I tried it and at first it was a delight. It is surely lighter and more aquatic than the iconic original Kouros. By this it really feels modern all the way and it works indeed great under the heat of the sun - by the shores of turqoise waters, or during heat wave nights - when clubbing in windling white washed alleys on small islands in the greek archipelago. It seems really to have been made with this environment in mind. However, after a deeper sniffing analysis of the mix you can detect the many poisonous chemicals in the liquid. This makes you reluctant to use this summer edition on your skin, even more so after having read the ingredient list ("Studies indicate that methylparaben applied on the skin may react with UVB, leading to increased skin aging and DNA damage") It is indeed a deadly cocktail and it ruins your relation to this product and the confidence in the reformulated Kouros line.

Just received this today on 31st October 2019 from oldchunk store. First sniff I feel the DNA of Kouros clearly, very masculine, old-school, clean, soapy. At first I didn't surprise about the scent despite YSL added mint note in this juice. Imagine you spray classic Kouros with toothpaste, yes, it's harsh kouros and minty! But in next few hours, I can enjoy the summer vibe. Fresher, lighter, and more wearable at outdoor than classic Kouros.

Amazing fresh soapy summer scent. Opens with a big splash of fresh mint, then rosemary and white musk. Great projection, one of a kind cool sensation when it touches the skin. Amazing fresh clean perfume!

i don ́t know other versions of kouros, but my first impression of this one is a nice fresh mint,very masculine, then fades to soapy scent, like a fresh shower...not sweet, just soapy...and then it becomes musky and stays on the skin...well done, and really wearable on summer! really nicer for men, but i have a 10mls bottle and should discover when to use it, maybe on office...later i come back here again and tell you all...:)
