Kouros by Yves Saint Laurent is an eau de toilette that opens on aldehydes, clary sage and bergamot and settles into civet, leather and oakmoss. It reads mostly green, warm and clean on our scent profile, at a moderate strength. Its least common notes on our list are honey and carnation, in the musky family. Below are the closest on our list. Similar isn't identical, so try a sample before a full bottle if you can.
