I am getting Body Kouros as a "blind" gift for my birthday from a friend. What can I expect it when I put it on? Will I be repulsed or delighted? I am turning 20 by the way!

If you don't like incense, prepare to be disappointed. This stuff is smoky and will have incense coming out of your every pore in your body.

Very sweet (like burnt sugar or candy floss), and very smoky and incensy. I love it, it's really nice on cold days and it's got this mysterious quality to it.

You're going to pull, big time!

Sugary and sweet, in a non-feminine way...

I feel that one of the most common complaints about it is that it is very linear. Other than that its pretty pleasant and universally pleasing.

Oh yeah, its a little feminine too, for some.

I am really looking forward to this scent. Thanks for the reassurance guys. I hope I do enjoy it and will definitely get back to you and give my "experience" with it!

I love Body Kouros as a winter fragrance, normally i don't like heavy incensey-sweet fragrances but BK projects itself in a totally inoffensive and enjoyable way. It is indeed quality stuff

I got it today! I was a little turned off when I first sprayed it. To me and my friend who bought it for me, we both thought it smelled like cotton candy. About an hour later that smell was gone. The result? I freakin love it!
