Hey man how does it change for you? I've noticed that when the temperature is higher the honey is more noticeable and gives another dimension to the fragrance. In the winter the honey almost fades away for me, leaving the fragrance with no buffer between the animalic cover and the herbs .. not the same unfortunately

@@franm.1959 Kouros works great on my regardless of the weather. However, I find that it needs to be sprayed on skin, rather than clothes or hair. It seems that the magic happens when it reacts with body heat. In the winter time, I usually only go with a couple of sprays on the chest and one one each wrist. It definitely seems to do better when I do some physical activity, even if it is a brisk walk. I find if I spray it and just sit around it is not as nice. Because of this, it is more of a daytime fragrance for me.

Had the first generation 81-82, sadly I lost the bottle and destroyed my car the same day, went over to a friend house doing a warm up before a night out last thing before going out I put on some Kouros and dropped the bottle on my carseat (the bottle didn't have a atomizer then), the day after when I came to drive my car home most of Kouros has dripped into the carseat, har to use another a car for many weeks untill I fixed the seat. It was a powerhouse fragrance, not strange to have it then actually, in a club with 500 people 200 of them har cigarettes in their mouth, on the dancefloor there was smokemachines going on with regulary interval, some people drank cheap beers from taps and their breaths smelled like sh*t, others dressed like true rockers with 100% leather boots, pants, vests, jackets and still sweated in smells in theirclose range of old sweatty leather and three days since last showers, and everything mixed with girls chemistry of hairspray and noose sticky deodorants, Kouros keept you in your own cloud with a fresh aura (atleast then) , it would be Nice to find a bottle from those first years again to realize what we carried with a proud straight neck then, macho absolute.

I you're wondering what this smells like it's a punchy dry woody/musky/soapy scent. Key word is dry which is why many people don't like it.

Curious how the most recent formulation compares. I have heard rumors it has been recently improved. I own a vintage bottle from, I believe, the 1980’s, as well as a bottle from roughly the late 2000’s, which I actually prefer (though both very similar). However, I also owned a bottle which I purchased in 2013 without silver shoulders, and this was completely different and rather atrocious. I think many reformulations can be blown out of proportion, but this one was very different and lacked any depth. At any rate, one of my all time favorites, especially during Autumn.

Wonderful review for one of my favorites! I started with the white shoulders and it was an instant click for me so I knew I had to get the vintage. Now I own quite a big collection, one 100ml 1981 Charles of the Ritz, 3 X50ml Parfums Corps + one 100ml Invigorating After Shave(navy-blue bottle), and also 4 X50 ml Sanofi...for the moment I think I'm ok, but I find it to be very addictive so I'm always open for more Kouros. I think my next direction is towards the flankers. As for the fragrance itself, the older the better.. I find the Charles of the Ritz the most natural of them all, smooth and balanced but not the most potent. The 1989 Parfums Corp is the beast of my collection with big loads of civet and honey. Sanofi starts to resemble the modern Kouros of today, with a sinthetic vibe almost medicinal( urinal?) but with a nice dose of civet. Love them all!

I’d love a vintage bottle but the prices are too high for something that you really can’t wear that often. It’s a shame because it’s a true monster of a frag and I personally love it

Sometimes vintage bottles can be found on eBay for a good price , especially if they are not listed as vintage. But I agree it’s not easy to find them.

MrSmelly1977 there’s a few on eBay. But the prices are mental. Even the minituares are silly money

Hello, I was wondering if I should get this or Antaeus by Chanel. I haven't tried Kouros but I absolutely LOVE the smell of Antaeus. I just turned 21 and I love really strange fragrances like Tom Ford Oud Wood Intense, TF Beau De Jour, and Moschino Toy Boy. I haven't owned a bottle of Antaeus but I bought a small 5ml decant and can't stop smelling it. What's best, in your opinion? Kouros or Antaeus?

I've only compared them once, but I found Antaeus to be much more balanced and pleasant

The Kouros introduced in the 80',was one,that was so good, a art of perfume. But times change...to negative. It was because of the civet,natural civet. After reformulation,the synthetic civet dominate to much.. And now its stinks!!! What a waste of such a great parfume!!! The real Kouros,the one where its begins,are hard to find,with skyhigh prices. If you have one,store it in the fridge...and be happy!!

Old formula was unique, lasted, had class, suttle yet strong in a good way. New formula scent is interrupted with a soapy smell and doesn't last.

is the new formulations still worth buying?

Now THAT would be awesome. Love this review as well but Parfum's vintage made their version of Gucci envy. Really tempted!
