The Story

Yves Saint Laurent Kouros Silver, launched in 2015 and crafted by perfumers Michel Girard and Olivier Pescheux, is a modern interpretation of the classic Kouros. The composition begins with fresh apple notes that introduce an invigorating sense of crispness, leading into the aromatic heart of sage. This green freshness is balanced by the woody base notes of amber and woods, creating a harmonious blend that feels both contemporary and lasting.

Application Tips

One or two sprays is enough to capture its essence. The fresh fruity top note of apple fades quickly, making way for the aromatic heart and woody base that carry through the day. Best worn in warmer months when its crisp freshness can shine.

The story behind the bottle.

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives — where a burst of fresh apple meets the earthy aroma of sage, grounded by warm woody notes.
