Body Kouros and YSL Kouros in Egypt
YSL Kouros suits men in Egypt who want a strong, old-school signature that stays noticeable from the morning commute to a late dinner. Kouros is bold and aromatic, best for confident, mature wearers and the cooler months, while Body Kouros is softer, sweeter and smoky, good for winter evenings out. Both make a classic gift for a father or husband.
What Kouros and Body Kouros smell like
Kouros is an aromatic fougère: aldehydes, bergamot, clary sage and coriander on top, a heart of carnation, vetiver, patchouli, cinnamon, jasmine and orris, and a base of oakmoss, amber, incense, honey, leather, musk, tonka bean and vanilla. Body Kouros is an oriental spicy scent with eucalyptus and incense on top, Chinese cedar and clary sage in the heart, and benzoin in the base.
The story of Kouros
Kouros was created by perfumer Pierre Bourdon and launched by Yves Saint Laurent in 1981. Its name comes from the kouroi, ancient Greek statues of young men that inspired the designer after a trip to Greece. Body Kouros followed in 2000, composed by Annick Menardo.
