Apple Brandy on the Rocks, created by By Kilian in 2021, is closer to a bar drink than a cologne. Bergamot and cardamom open the top notes, then apple, rum and brandy take hold in the heart, with pineapple adding extra sweetness and vanilla resting beneath a green touch of moss. Ambroxan and cedar carry the base notes to a dry, amber close. It is unisex, and it suits people after something with an edge, not a soft hush. Voters choose it for autumn and winter, in the evening and at night, and it also works for the office. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, though plenty call it long-lasting. Sillage also comes out moderate, with a good number voting it stronger. Wear a 10ml decant through a run of cold nights, which is time enough to decide.
