Inimitably tempting!

In the early 90s, I came across Kouros. In the student commune of my then boyfriend, the fragrance made the rounds.
From then on, my nose was stapled to his neck, whenever that was wetted with this seductive attractant. If I may avail myself of Toytiger's lovely image of the "stinking ocelot enclosure," Kourus turned quite a few of us young women into cats in heat.
Incomparably animalistic, coarse, strong and irresistible.

No idea if today's texture is still the same. Kouros is for me a fragrance of its time and forever associated with youth, masculine strength and vitality.

Today's Kouros has not much in common with what I still have as a remnant at home. The 15-year-old aftershave smells, although already diluted with alcohol, much more intense than what is brought today as EDT under the people willing to pay. I am sorely disappointed.
