About this deal

Kenneth Cole Black (2003) was truly a black sheep of sorts, as Kenneth Cole Reaction (2004) and Kenneth Cole Signature (2005) would echo vibes from the original Kenneth Cole New York Men (2002) designed by Steve Demarcado for LVMH, while this one did not. Both are primarily fresh citrus and violet leaf fragrances over a modern psuedo-chypre bases, but the older Kenneth Cole Black gets the bum rap because it has a bolder opening and relies on cheaper period-specific materials to make the same point. Somehow I always manage to spray on too much of this potent scent, as it is so light and inviting up front.

The only thing that makes Bleu de Chanel "blue" is the same thing that makes Kenneth Cole Black "black": The aesthetic. I'd use something like Kenneth Cole Black now as a work or office scent, since it doesn't have the "night club factor" anymore after being years removed it. However, it is amazingly powerful by modern standards and it does have a nicely blended late appearing blackish incense note that stands it apart from the modern norm. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). It does have a solid opening but as you go along for the ride through the mid and base it turns synthetic and boring.What makes Kenneth Cole Black so "black" isn't really anything tangible other than the marketing of the decade that denoted "black" flankers to established masculine perfume lines had to be mysterious with an air of seriousness to them, but in reality all this meant was make something markedly different from all the other flankers in a line, as Ralph Lauren did with Polo Black (2005) by making it a super fruity neon ozonic mango thing over violet ionones and woody notes. The opening of ozonic aldehydes, "watermint", mandarin, and basil over some dry ginger feels like a cold bolt of lightning that quickly gets surrounded in ionones that represent both fruity, woody, and floral configurations sans any iris. just wanted to ask to people who had tried or smelled Kenneth Cole Black,what are your thoughts on it? Jacques Polge must have been a fan of Harry Freemont and Sabine de Tscharner's work here for Kenneth Cole, because he copied about 60% of it into Bleu de Chanel.

All of this probably sounds rather yucky, and the young men of the era (like me) definitely over-sprayed it, but the long-term effects can still be positively felt in releases like Bleu de Chanel (2010).
