Kilian Gold Knight Eau de Parfum is all about rich, golden honey that's raw, unfiltered, and decadent. It's fresh, slightly lifted by the addition of anise (but not enough that it overwhelms), and the patchouli merely adds a vague earthiness to the whole scent but never really comes across as...
Kilian Light My Fire Eau de Parfum has a more nuanced opening that is part smoke, earth, and chocolate with cumin facets, but it shifted into a honeyed-almond affair with more of the underpinnings of a patchouli note than an dominant patchouli note after about a half hour and through the drydown.
Kilian Princess Eau de Parfum is well-categorized as a sweet, gourmand ginger, peach, and vanilla-marshmallow that was fluffy, sweet, and fruity with a zesty ginger (less spicy as it was refreshing) in the early hours before becoming sweeter, thicker, and gooier through the dry down. The jasmine,...
Kilian Vodka on the Rocks Eau de Parfum is a cool, aromatic fragrance with a soapy undertone paired with soft, rosy florals and tangy fruit that slowly gets taken over by ambroxan, which creates a more lasting phase of subtly floral, fruity, and blurry spiced woods. It is described as being part of...
Kilian Eau de Parfum is a peach-coconut dream that starts off sweet and fruity with a creamy undertone that shifts to having a more musky, rosy floral feel, still more underneath the fruits (dominated by peach and coconut). The drydown is woodier and a little smoky, but the other notes from before...
Kilian Forbidden Games Eau de Parfum is a sweet, fruity peach-heavy perfume that has a floral background that eventually loses focus and becomes more honeyed peach with vanilla cream. It is described as being "honey-drizzled peach" with "cinnamon bark" with a "floral nectar heart" that also includes...
Kilian Eau de Parfum features peach and lychee, sweet and juicy, with a dash of pepper paired with soft florals that seesaw between jammy rose and blooming jasmine. The base notes didn't seem to come through as well on my skin, so the drydown was scant in definable notes; at best, soft, slightly...
By Kilian Apple Brandy on the Rocks Eau de Parfum is a boozy, apple liquor drizzled over lightly smoked oak that progresses more linearly from middle to end. The apple note softens and fades as the drydown emerges, where lightly spiced, smoked woods and vanilla start to take over. The notes are:
Kilian Intoxicated Eau de Parfum showcased cardamom in all of all of its smoky, nutty, spicy-sweet glory. I struggled to really discern other notes throughout the development of Intoxicated; at most, a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon appeared with a vague sense of creamy vanilla and coffee about mid-way...
Kilian Black Phantom "Memento Mori" Eau de Parfum was an elegant gourmand where rum was, in fact, the star through most of the life of the perfume. The rum started as richer, boozier, and more definable before it was sweetened with caramel and chocolate with a creamy, nutty quality brought on by...
