Kobako by Bourjois is a Chypre Floral fragrance for women. Kobako was launched in 1936. The nose behind this fragrance is Ernest Beaux.
This Bourjois Kobako smells nothing but soap.Nothing light,nothing powdery,nothing citrusy here...it is so bad scent...
I got rid of it, had a bottle about a year ago. I remember I liked it when I was a teenager but my tastes have changed since then. I sometimes like "heavy" fragrances but Kobako is a real killer that I cannot wear. Too heavy with a strong leather note I don't like - but I guess it can be liked nowadays too, just not by me - it's a strong oriental.
I have let myself to try this, since it appeared in our home. Love the fragrance when it projects. Exactly like the cloud of it in the room It's been sprayed. Marvelous, lady's scent. I feel lot of spices, orient flowers and woods/grasses. But I honestly can't stand it while sniffing my wrist. It feels horrible sour and bitter, no sweetness of it's projection. A heavy headachey smell.
I believe small doses of this mixture will do a magic, though. Because of it's mature, feminine, oriental charm, when it projects, also with a great sillage.
i remember my mother wearin in the 90s !! such a heavy scent! i couldnt breathe when she was aroung because the perfume was sooo strong, but nevertheless i have so many memories with it ! :)
it starts very light, but from one sec to another it is so strong, flowery, dusty !!! at the end, it doesnt last that long, but quite a while it turns into a light, nice scent with this spice which i love ! :)
This one is my loved favorite... The juicy citrus beginning turns into a flower-spicy notes with a delicate touch of thin leather and a lazy incense. Spices, leather and soft incense! Mmmm! ... I llllove it!
It isn't modern, it's an absolutely retro-sounding and very mysterious fragrance! The note of powder is not soft and tender like Guerlain's powder; it's a powder with a strong character and chypre echo of clove-spice, where you can catch the echoes of the gentle flower cherry. This one leads me direct to Paradise!..
The great and amazing one!
I used to love it 15 years ago,but now i cant stand it.Too strong and synthetic for me
Bourjois Kobako is a vintage mystery when
applied to the skin conjures on a vast
rubber and spice plantation in French Indochine of the 1930's opens with the
scent of Cinnamon, Chai, and frankincense
dries under the setting sun on grassy field with a sharp green note that can be overwhelming if applied to much as it
grows darker nocturnal jasmine starts
to steep though the warm air blown though the vastness of the night sky
roses bloom with it's blood red vibrancy
makes it defined and known carnations
adds to an fiery texture orris dries the middle with powdery finish, the drydown
is mossy but it doe'snt have the wetness
to it due to the dry Sandalwood like the
wisp of incense floating beneath the sky
patches of musk makes it ancient and
it's semi-masculine drydown of leather
finishes the scent.
Kobako is Elegance with a sting picturing a scene with Bette Davis shoots a man in broad moonlight in
the letter what do you think she is wearing?.
