Inspired by the dashing, golden-armored chevalier in Gustav Klimt's 1902 Beethoven Frieze, By Kilian’s Gold Knight flows with a similar golden opulence. The dark sensuousness of patchouli is draped in deep, golden honey, as Kilian Hennessy is wont to do. But despite the gourmand connotations, a fresh anisic bite adds an invigorating masculine edge for the Gold Knight - most distinctively paired with a bright, dry bergamot in the opening. As the scent grows darker, the honeyed patchouli shimmers with cinnamon, vanilla, and anise into a warm, sexy powerhouse.
