It didn't help that marketing chose to use all the most common tropes of blue fragrances to place this product: you espect a fruity version of Sauvage, but what you end up smelling in a hurry at Sephora is fig compot in a crowned blue bottle. Unfortunately, decent longevity and projection, but at least it doesn't excel in any of those two, so you will be able to wash it off (fear not).

Never underestimate the sex appeal of a simple, fresh, and clean fragrance in a sea of overly peppery, saccharine, and heavy colognes trying to be “unique. It is rather classic but the take on the style of fragrance is pretty creative I think and it is extremely well done.

The citruses are amazing, sicilian lemon and blood orange, the kind of nice citruses you find in the Light Blue line too. On my second occasion wearing this fragrance, I received a compliment from a stranger on the street who asked about the scent I was wearing. This is its own fragrance but there’s an Aventus vibe/Atelier Cologne Musk Imperial thing going own which is appearing due to the juniper berries that make it tonic like, the woods with the cedar the fig and citrus notes at the top. Even though are are mutliple citrus notes, this is absolutely an aromatic, green scent with a good amount of clean/fresh blended into it. I don’t really know how to describe clary sage to someone whose never smelled it before, but the best way I can say it is like a slightly spicier, fuzzier and even a little sweeter version of basil.K is a fragrance that gives a sensation of cleanliness and masculine freshness, which makes it ideal to wear in the office. If you’re looking for clean, citrus, juicy, everyday summer wear, then this one is definitely worth a look. The citruses are a significant part of the opening notes, their combination comes across as just citruses, slightly sweet, not too sour, but without accent to any of the specific citrus notes included in the fragrance. When I first smelt this I was disappointed because I have so much respect for D and G fragrances and expected something with depth and character. The dry down isn't quite as light as the opening, but it's still very smooth and subtle for a modern blue fragrance.

Office friendly as long as not oversprayed, 2 or 3 sprays was enough to last more than your typical office hours. It works, in my opinion, and while there’s nothing drop dead amazing about K, it’s a unique take on the modern fresh variety which has ultimately become the antithesis of unique…so there’s something to be said for it there. I didn't think of any soapy vibe, but just a nice twist on the fougere and maybe de-maturized by the fruity accord.Please read the full reviews and consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchasing decision.

In terms of performance: The real sample of K I have is weak in longevity and performance, whereas the copy I have is excellent. On first impression I did not fall in love with K but I wouldn't mind getting to know K a bit better! This smells almost identical to Cool Water Intense EDP in the opening and a bit of YSL Y in the drydown. There will be (and is) people who like this, but my advice is to try it first before paying good money for it.The combination of floral middle notes includes crunchy geranium, delicate clary sage and energising lavender. I’ve already gotten some compliments on it and my partner absolutely loves it and says it drives her crazy. Would be very curious to see an analysis of this fragrance actually, this note is not a "generic" one for sure. It really feels like it’s going to be something very unique… but later dries down to ultimately become a pretty safe and inoffensive run-of-the-mill citrus scent. I smell a lot of juniper and vetiver in the dry down with that blood orange which makes it green and spicy.

However, for the average guy just looking for a solid cologne so he can smell good, this would be a good choice. I cannot imagine most doing anything like 4 or 5 sprays and not choking people if not themselves out.

I know he's not like the other blokes when he goes out, and I hope this conveys that to the young women on the prowl, so the This fragrance is so odd, it opens up with a strong juniper, it smells a little mature but very intriguing. I've worn this one a lot during last summer (2021) when I met the woman of my life who became my wife during the year. Have to admit that when i sprayed it on, I was sure I was going to be able to dismiss this as "meh", but then the mid kicked in and that spicy, cedar-vetiver combo presented a slightly different take on blue for me.
