About This Perfume
Think zesty lime and grapefruit with peppery bite, woody musk: that is Kenneth Cole Vintage Black. It opens with white pepper, grapefruit and green notes, moves into sandalwood, lavender and tequila and settles on cedarwood, oak and musk. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. Reach for it for casual days and the office. Released in 2009.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and stays close to the skin.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fresh and uplifting for casual days.
- Sample first if: woody is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you want a scent other people notice from across the room.
Around $63.
