Power by Kenzo, released in 2008 and composed by Olivier Polge, is a soft, spicy and powdery masculine scent. People describe it as spicy, woody, floral, resinous, amber and citrusy in equal measure, a sign of its blended, rounded style.

It opens with coriander, bergamot and cardamom, giving a fresh, citrus-tinged spice that feels clean rather than hot. The heart is simply described as flowers, and in practice it comes across as a soft, slightly powdery floral cushion, unusual in a men's fragrance. The base is warm and smooth: cedar adds a dry, pencil-like woodiness, while labdanum and tolu balsam bring a sweet, resinous, slightly leathery glow.

Most wearers report moderate longevity and a moderate to intimate trail. Votes favour spring and summer and lean towards daytime, so it suits the office, everyday wear and relaxed outings. It fits someone who wants a gentle, comforting scent with a powdery, clean feel rather than a loud or sporty one.
