Yves Saint Laurent Kouros Silver

Blind bought a bottle of this for $50 at Marshalls. I was a bit nervous that I wouldn't like it, but to my surprise this is very pleasant and wearable. Soft apple with sage and a bit of mint is the impression I get. Fairly linear to the end, but the apple does fade away. This is a soft, fruity, but still masculine fragrance perfect for nearly all season. Decent longevity too. I quite like Kouros Silver.

I really don't understand the hate for this fragrance. Kouros Silver is a fresh masculine scent with a touch of sweetness. The apple note gives it it's sweet undertone while the sage and woody notes keep it masculine and cultured. I could smell the amber notes VERY mildly. Sage, apple, and woods are what I picked up from this mostly.Kouros Silver is worth it's price because it does smell expensive and keeps the heart of YSL as it smells mildly similar to some of their other fragrances. This fragrance also has huge sillage and longevity, another good reason for it's large price. Don't be a stiff (like a statue) and give this a sniff, it might be worth it. UPDATE: I have been wearing Kouros Silver for two months now and I must say that it is a real compliment getter! Women and men always love this cologne on me and EVERYTIME I wear it, I get compliments and people asking me what I'm wearing. Forget these other reviews, this is from honest experience, this is a majestic scent!

You would swear by the way people are reacting that this is the first Kouros flanker? There are already a few including summer editions so this isnt really a shock to me. As long as it smells great is there anything else that really matters? Dont judge before its available to test.

Certainly comes out with a bang.A millennial bang loud but utterly bland so as not to offend anyone, totally unisex yet again.Huge quantity of Apple and later the sage comes through....the end. Massive amount of imagination I think not. Go with Joop Go! For a cheaper alternative. Overall good strength and silage but bland and dull, it makes old codgers like me have a nervous breakdown and reach for our leopord print loin cloths and swing from the trees, if ever an aftershave said, death to anything male!! this edt is doing it.

Very simple composition. Opens as a sweet green apple which remains throught the whole time of the scent. Mild notes of sage in the middle but still more apple. Bit ambery at the end. But apple here is the main thing. The note is very smooth almost like with added vanilla and spicy sage gives it a character a bit. More natural smelling than Invictus. Longevity is certainly above average but projection is moderate to high but not killing everyone around. I take this over Invictus any time. Overall for smell is 7/10.
