Apple Brandy on the Rocks turns bergamot and cardamom into something closer to a cocktail than a cologne, before apple, rum and brandy take hold. Pineapple adds extra sweetness through the middle, and vanilla sits under a green touch of moss. Cedar and ambroxan carry it to a dry, amber close. By Kilian built this one in 2021 for anyone, men and women alike, who wants a scent with some bite rather than a soft one. It gets picked for fall and winter, worn into the evening and at night, and it holds its own at the office. Voters call its longevity moderate on the whole, and the sillage vote sits at moderate too, with plenty saying it runs stronger. A 10ml decant carries you through a run of cold nights before you decide on the full bottle.

The community verdict
A fruity, woody blend of apple, rum and brandy, Apple Brandy on the Rocks starts juicy and dries down earthier with cedar. Most find its wear and projection moderate. It feels right for autumn nights, with winter and evenings also fitting; its smoothness has a masculine lean.

More from By Kilian
By Kilian started in France in 2007 with a clear taste for boozy, sweet, after-dark perfume. Rum, caramel and vanilla run through much of the range, warmed by cinnamon and cardamom and set on patchouli, cedar or sandalwood. Angels' Share is the natural first try, warm spice and sweet woods with a glow like an old liqueur. Love Don't Be Shy is softer, sugary white flowers over vanilla. Back to Black brings honey and tobacco, and Black Phantom leans into caramel and spice. For a lighter mood, Moonlight in Heaven pairs citrus with tropical fruit.
