First purchased in Montreal in 1974. Loved the scent then. Did not buy another until last year, and wonder why. Woodsy, bright, and understated. Love it.

A favorite around here. Can't believe they still make this stuff, though, as it's pretty dated. Not for those who don't care for powdery drydowns, though. If you seek yet another Eternity clone, there are thousands out there to tempt you.

I like the bottle, I like the concept (clean mountain-fresh and woodsy scent with a sharp note)and I like the price, but there's a sour note in Kanon that doesn't really agree with me, and the lasting power on my skin is a couple of hours at best. Also, from certain angles, it comes across as a budget and somewhat dated scent. Still, better than many. I personally would prefer this one to Geir Ness. A try-before-you-buy. Then again, buying this without trying won't ruin your budget.

Kanon cologne is one of the most pleasant scents I've ever encountered. Its is so good its almost addictive. It is a clean refreshing scent with a lot of sparkle. I particularly like Kanon because it smells “bright” while still remaining a mens scent. It is neither too heavy nor too light, and lasts for about 8 hours. Really nice stuff, and definitely recommended. Kanon is sort of along the lines of Eau Sauvage but in my opinion Kanon is superior because it is a bit stronger, longer lasting, and just smells better.

Has a woodsy, mountain fragrance to it. Has a little sharp note to it. Overall, different from the many citrus-woody clones today.

Kanon has been around for decades and still seems to be going strong. I don't see it being used as much as it used to but it is still relatively obtainable. The main notes are woody - cedar in particular. The squat bottle has a beautiful wooden cap. Although today it is usually found in drug-stores, when it was launched this was prestige merchandise. I don't know if this is still the case, but there were a lot of associated products with this one: shaving cream, deodorants, splashes, coolers, etc.
