Ktoret 140 Blue Cologne

A juicy fruit basket opens Ktoret 140 Blue Cologne from Michael Malul, apple, blood orange, plum, melon and pomelo layering into a bright, mixed top. Black pepper, neroli, lavender and geranium settle the centre into something spiced and floral together, the pepper keeping the neroli from turning too sweet. Amber, cedar, musk, sandalwood and patchouli close the foundation warm, woody and resinous. Five notes in the top alone is an ambitious start, and the black pepper waiting in the heart is what keeps that fruit basket from tipping into pure sweetness. Ktoret 140 Blue Cologne is a fruity woody Eau de Parfum, versatile for day to evening wear. Michael Malul packed a lot in here, and somehow none of it feels crowded.
