IKKS

Explore 32 IKKS fragrances — notes, longevity, sillage and community ratings, matched to how you want to smell. The house dates from 1987.

Young Man sits within a range built on citrus, woody and aromatic accords. Bergamot, cedar and sandalwood appear throughout the catalogue, giving the compositions a consistent structural base. The citrus elements bring brightness to the foreground while the woods provide a dry, grounding presence underneath. Aromatic facets weave through the different releases, adding a green and herbal character to the overall profile.

Musk, powdery notes and sweet elements turn up alongside the core materials, softening the edges of the woods and rounding out the scent profiles. The musk in particular works with the sandalwood to create a smooth finish across the different formulas. This combination of sharp citrus, dry timber and soft surrounding notes defines the register of the house. The result is a collection that stays within a familiar framework of fresh and woody tones.
