Kouros, created in 1981, is an iconic aromatic forgere by Yves Saint Laurent that has left its mark on the world ever since. Born in the decade of excess, Kouros is larger than life... an olfactory powerhouse against which countless other masculine successors have been measured! Eight parts brawn to two parts brute, this scent is the embodiment of gruff masculine vigor!

What may come as a surprise to many, is the fact that Kouros is composed of a great deal of floral notes... a dense bouquet of jasmine (with all of its indolic white-flower goodness) resides over leafy geranium and powdery iris root. These facets are steeped in saccharine accords of honey, vanilla and creamy tonka; however, just as one might expect an overtly feminine feel to emerge, Kouros morphs into a triple-threat, straight-up trouser-bomb with key components of civet, musk and leather! These notes (along with coriander seed, woods and a scattering of spices) imbue the composition with a thick, rugged masculine lilt. Kouros is a heavy-hitting giant that is every bit as commanding as it is memorable.

Kouros is arguably the masculine jewel in the YSL crown. It has managed to withstand the test of time, and remains at the top of the 80s masculine food chain. It commands respect and attention with its merciless projection and longevity. Gents - perhaps a good one one to wear when pitching for that job, or asking for that raise!

With all the bling-tastic appeal of a shiny christmas bauble, John Varvatos Platinum Edition is a punchy masculine from the famed American designer's perfume stable! Packaged in a cool metallic flask with hallmarked dogtag neck-tie, Platinum Edition was launched in 2013 and has swiftly climbed the Varvatos popularity ladder!

Platinum Edition is a memorable and unique scent with a patchouli-leather sucker punch! A bitter orange and bergamot opening belies a heart that is warm and brooding... cinnamon and coriander lay a spice-laiden path that leads to an amber / leather / incense nucleus. Notes of myrtle and sage lend an aromatic twist, whilst patchouli / sandalwood form the foundation upon which all is perched. Platinum Edition – whilst a designer scent – has all the olfactory markers of a niche creation;  it is refined, distinctive and commanding... just the ticket for your man over the cooler months! Lovers of Guerlain's L'Instant Pour Homme Extreme, or Juliette Has a Gun's Vengeance Extreme will find much to celebrate here!

Platinum Edition gives good bang for your buck. It will give the man in your life an individual appeal. Primal and polished in equal measures, this one is a sure-fire hit for the fellas!
