I keep it for special night occasions. It’s a perfume with capital letters for men who step out of the herd, powerful, charismatic, and for adults only. It won’t leave you indifferent; it’s simply special.
I just picked it up and I love those metal bottles, I don’t know why. I don’t see it as formal enough to go out at night, but rather for casual daytime events or travel, thanks to its versatility. The scent is exquisite: floral but with a woody and spicy touch that makes it perfect for unisex. Ideal for people aged 20 to 40. Highly recommended.
Unisex, though I think it suits young, cosmopolitan men with good style, sexy and intelligent. They are charismatic and friendly but reserved; they know their appeal and can be sarcastic and fascinating at the same time. It has an androgynous essence mixing minimalism with an overload of spices and wood, debated between classic and innovative. At first, bergamot dominates (along with coriander, which leans it towards masculine), then the flowers and labdanum emerge, and finally the balsam of Peru creates flowers in ‘honeydew’. The bergamot shifts from citrus juice to bitter, astringent peel. It has good projection, not intrusive, woody with sweet floral nuances, sometimes dry and powdery, other times wet and creamy. It is elegant and serves when you want to imprint yourself on others’ olfactory memory. Works better in moderate temperatures. Not recommended for those seeking something very masculine or with intense trails.
I just tried it and it doesn’t seem special to me. It’s too talcum and powdery, just like Kenzo Flower, 1 Million, or Versace Eros. It’s not bad, but it recalls other fragrances in its chemistry; although its floral notes are clear, they seem diminished by that powder and it doesn’t reach spectacular projection, though it does have good durability. Not for nights.
Unisex, though I think it suits young, cosmopolitan men with a good fashion eye, sexy, intelligent and charismatic, friendly but reserved, aware of their appeal and with a sarcastic touch that fascinates. Both men and women can wear it, but it’s not for everyone. It has an androgynous essence mixing minimalism with an ‘overload’ of spices and wood, debated between classic and innovative, rustic and refined. At first it smells very much of bergamot (together with coriander it inclines it to the masculine side), then the flowers and labdanum enter, and the balsam of Peru dominates, which I like more and more. On my skin it sounds like flowers in ‘honeydew’ with a touch of bergamot that passes from citrus juice to bitter, astringent peel. It has good projection, not intrusive, woody with sweet floral nuances, sometimes dry and powdery, other times wet and creamy. Rare but true and elegant. If asked if it’s for special or informal occasions, I’d say for when you want to imprint yourself on others’ olfactory memory with a pleasant, uncommon, and attractive aroma, like the people who wear it. Works better in moderate temperatures. Not recommended for men seeking very masculine fragrances or intense trails.
I’ve confirmed that KPower shines more in fresh or cold weather: the bergamot stops being intrusive and bitter to become a soft support that combines sexy with the flowers. In the cold, the flowers revive fresh, the balsam feels warm, and the cedar with cardamom shine with elegance. It goes from good to excellent in a breath, delicious! The bottle is interesting, looking like cold metal or a thermos, but sounds like glass. It’s clear it should be used cold to work better.
In my opinion, it is one of the most adorable, seductive, and unpretentious masculine fragrances out there. They say it’s unisex and I’m sure they’re right; I wouldn’t hesitate a moment to wear this harmonious blend of bergamot, cardamom, floral notes, and cedar… I’m almost embarrassed to write it. If your partner worries about smelling sad or bitter, gift them this lovely scent. Excellent longevity and trail. Highly recommended.
To me, one of the most adorable, seductive, and unpretentious men’s fragrances. They say it’s unisex and I probably agree; I wouldn’t hesitate to wear it myself for that harmony of bergamot, cardamom, flowers, and cedar… it’s tempting! If you don’t want your boyfriend to smell sad and bitter, gift him this. Good longevity and excellent trail. Highly recommended.
My second favourite after Dior Homme Vintage; they share that oily cedar lasting 10 hours on the skin and that citrus bergamot marking the opening, alongside a subtle cardamom. The balsam of Peru fixes it beautifully, adding sweetness, while the flowers are noticeable from the start. Labdanum appears in the base, though I never managed to catch the coriander. I love how it evolves on my skin; it smells niche and is a floral jewel for all seasons. Fixation 10/10, longevity 8/10, versatility 7/10, scent 9/10, quality 9/10, projection 6/10. Total 8.5/10. Very good.
I’m new to men’s perfumes and can’t distinguish the smell of labdanum or balsam of Peru, but this smells like a blessed glory. At first, you note soft bergamot and cardamom, then balsamic scents, flowers like sweet violet, powdery iris, and orange blossom. In the base, amber and cedar make it sweet and woody. It reminds me of the ‘no tea’ my mother used to make with water, cinnamon, anise, and sugar, a delicious mixture I adore. It’s unisex, ideal for autumn, winter, and spring nights. Elegant, soft, powdery, sweet and spicy without being cloying. Very long-lasting. It seems like the brother of Jungle L’elephant, with similar spices but without that burnt woody note. For tender, empathetic men, not just gym-goers. Forget stereotypes and enjoy all fragrances. The bottle is small, cylindrical, metallic, and cold. I like it more than Narciso Rodriguez’s Essence because 100 ml is too much clutter. The name Power fits: power of sensitivity, not aggression. It’s a simple and precious aroma for a new man who unites masculinity and femininity. I have it and I love every last drop.
I’m very inexperienced with men’s aromas and I must say I don’t know the smell of hyssop, coriander or tolu balsam. But this fragrance, gentlemen, smells like blessed glory. At the opening, I perceive a soft bergamot and cardamomo notes, but soon balsamic scents appear. Flowers… what flowers? A sweet violet, soft powdery iris and some orange blossom. In the base, amber and cedar notes make it sweet and woody. In reality, I perceive other notes not listed here. It evokes the ‘no-tea’ my mother made when friends visited and I was a little girl. I say ‘no-tea’ because she said she was going to make tea, but what she actually boiled was water, two cinnamon branches and anise or marjoram, which together with the two teaspoons of sugar she added to my cup, seemed to me a delicious drink we accompanied with homemade sweets. That’s the general result, a spiced ‘no-tea’ with cinnamon, anise and sugar. And I’m obsessed with it. Totally unisex, for autumn and winter days and even spring nights. Spiced, sweet and woody. Elegant, soft and aldehydic. A true delicacy. Not cloying nor overwhelming, and very lasting, how I like it. For me, it’s a sibling to Jungle L’elephant, with a very similar opening regarding spices but without the woody or burnt note this one has. For men as my friend azuriiita described them, heavenly, do these men exist or are they an urban legend? Very Japanese perfume, original and simple, there lies its power. Its bottle is metallic and cool, small, cylindrical and very ergonomic. I like it more than Narciso Rodriguez’s Essence, as the 100ml size is excessively large, very clutter. Its name Power seems perfect, power of sensitivity and tenderness and not of force or aggression. It’s a simple and beautiful scent for a new concept of man, uniting masculinity and femininity, as we all have that duality and should enjoy both aspects. Say what you say, I’m already a bit tired of Clint Eastwood-style machos and gym boys sweating testosterone everywhere. I’m more put off by a tender, affectionate and empathetic man. Friends and friends, stop with stereotypes and enjoy all fragrances whether on one side or the other of the shopping centre. I have this one, I love it and plan to enjoy every last drop…
Quite pleasant, seems youthful, I seem to radiate it, floral but with a magnificent masculine and woody touch. A bit pricey, but worth it.
Floral, clean, aldehydic, soft, lasting… Different. Good fixation and trail. Masculine? Feminine? Use it…
Hard to find in Spain, except in department stores where they have brought it back in 60ml. It’s very versatile, for fresh times or heat. Works day and night, very pleasant and nothing heavy or synthetic. Its longevity and trail are very good. Highly recommended and today almost exclusive here. I would define it as a powdery iris masculine floral that changes to calmer notes over time, comfortable. An example of perfumes that fulfil their pyramid correctly and without deception. Better in fresh weather; with heat, it doesn’t go much. Could give a night game, perhaps… Serve it cool.
In the Prada fragrance line, but for me more refined, not simple. I love it; this is what I want to smell like in practically any weather or occasion, with the only doubt being especially formal situations, though I think it wouldn’t clash there either. What predominates most are flowers, perhaps a bouquet of roses, aldehydic, although its opening is somewhat citrusy and fresh. Delicate, but the wood gives it the masculine touch. Good lasting power though somewhat discreet. Different, refined, with lots of elegance and class.
The perfume aims to give a masculine floral scent, a non-existent, abstract flower, semi-sweet and powdery. I liked it when it hit the market; today it’s surpassed by current trends in men’s perfumery. Nevertheless, it still smells different. The opening is fresh and citrusy, quickly moving to a powdery floral aroma slightly sweetened by tolu balsam and ambered by heather. It’s not cloyingly sweet nor fresh; it’s a powdery floral scent that smells like many flowers together. Performance is good and preferable for cool temperatures. In my city, it’s not easy to find anymore. It didn’t have the expected success, so it’s very exclusive. Is it synthetic? Yes, but it’s well harmonised, doesn’t load up, and produces no rejection. Don’t buy it blind; the scent doesn’t suit everyone. Better in a relaxed style for leisure moments. Personal opinion: a masculine floral with oriental nuances.
It’s like a tryst between Youth Dew and Voyage by Hermès. Kenzo Power is rare, a refined hybrid that jumps between a resinous and powdery vintage style and a citrus-spiced type like Hermès. I love it because it smells like something different, as if it were created with care. It reminds me of dystopias like Gattaca or A.I., mixing future and past, that retrofuturism. Power is romantic and evocative, taking you to frolic in the nostalgia of the un-lived. The bottle is beautiful, a futuristic dispenser in shiny silver, pure sobriety. The aroma is a charming powdery mist, not ‘powerful’ in the strong sense: a mix of spicy cardamom, cold and suggestive, with an ancient paste of flowers, resinous heather, and sweet balsams. Bergamot and coriander unify it with peaks of relaxed, casual freshness. It’s interesting, didn’t make a noise, and it’s a pity. It’s beautiful, dreamy, and oneiric. Its colour is pale green and sepia, it smells like a dream, it could exist in a past civilisation, in a lady’s dressing room from the 50s, or in a futuristic skyscraper. Try it and use it if you like, it’s easy to grow fond of. PS: I’m not a user, but I would love to; I miss that the herbal accords last longer, in the dry down it’s an ambered heather type like Aromatics in White, with a marzipan tone, but it doesn’t reach anything harsh and I’m not of hot notes. PS II: Do you remember the film The Hours? Virginia Woolf defeated in the field, Julianne Moore in the 50s wanting everything, Meryl Streep crazy in NY. All three would look fabulous in Power. Try it before it’s discontinued, it’s a jewel.
The offspring of Youth Dew and Voyage by Hermès. Sounds odd? Kenzo Power is a refined hybrid that jumps between a resinous, powdery vintage style and a citrus-spiced style reminiscent of Hermès or Jo Malone. I love the blend because it smells different; it’s one of the few times smelling a launch makes you feel it was crafted with care. It reminds me of Gattaca or AI, dystopias mixing futures, presents, and pasts, embodying retrofuturism. Power has something romantic and evocative, taking you to play in the nostalgia of the un-lived. The bottle is beautiful, a futuristic essentia lacquered in silver, pure sobriety. The scent, which has little of ‘powerful’ and is a charming aldehydic mist, is a mix of spicy, cold cardamomo, erotic and swift, with an old paste of flowers, resinous heather and sweet balms. Bergamot and coriander unify it with peaks of relaxed, sporty, casual freshness. Power is interesting, didn’t make a noise, and it’s a shame. It’s beautiful, evocative and dreamlike. Its colour is pale green and sepia with a scent of sleep; it could exist in a past civilisation, in a dutiful lady’s dressing table from the fifties, or in a future Korean skyscraper. Try it and if you like it, use it; it’s easy to grow fond of it. PS: I’m not an expert user, but I wish the herbal accords held longer; as it dries down, it leaves a resinous heather similar to Aromatics in White, with a marzipan tone, nothing cloyingly sweet. And I’m not into hot notes. PS II: Do you remember ‘The Hours’? It would suit Virginia Woolf, Julianne Moore and Meryl Streep fabulously. Try it before they discontinue it, it’s a jewel.
Unfortunately discontinued! I owned it and it was a compliment bomb despite its feminine floral touch. Although violet isn’t listed in the notes, it smelled intensely of violet. Long-lasting with good projection. It can be categorised as a 100% unisex perfume.
I stumbled upon it by chance in a local perfumerie and, blind-testing it, it was love at first sight. It smells different from everything I own: a cold, intoxicating, evocative floral that lasts a treat. It envelops me like a futuristic floral soap; I can’t quite explain it. The bottle is minimalist, like an old-fashioned pharmacy dispenser, simply beautiful. It’s straight into my all-time top 10. If you find it blind, grab it without hesitation.
Found it luckily in a local perfumerie. Bought it blind and it was love at first sight. It’s a unique scent; nothing in my collection smells like this. It’s an intoxicating, evocative ‘cold’ floral. It lasts a treat and envelops you in a futuristic floral soap scent—I don’t know how to explain it. The bottle, minimalist like an old pharmacy essentia, is beautiful. It definitely enters my all-time top 10. If you find it blind, get it, yes or no.
Initially smells like floral Sprite, very fresh and citrusy; as it dries down, it settles into a powdery floral scent with a citrus hint. I didn’t notice any spices or woods at all. I’m fascinated by it; it must have been revolutionary when it launched because I can’t recall smelling anything like this back in 2008. Lasting power is excellent, around 8 hours; the projection is discreet and after an hour, it stays within your personal bubble.
