Jesús del Pozo Quasar is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1994, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Quasar opens with Fruity and Banana, settles into a heart of Lavender, Geranium, Rosemary, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Jesús del Pozo's Quasar carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

A truly divisive blast from the past, Quasar is either a unique, fresh tropical masterpiece or a synthetic, dated mess with a strong shaving foam vibe. It's a love-it-or-hate-it scent with a loyal following for its distinctive banana leaf and herbal character.

About

Quasar launches with a vibrant, unusual burst of green banana and mixed fruits, immediately setting it apart. This fruity opening quickly mellows into an aromatic heart of lavender, rosemary, and sage, infused with geranium, adding a clean, herbal freshness. The drydown settles into a classic woody base of cedar, sandalwood, patchouli, and oakmoss, providing a warm, masculine anchor that, for some, evokes a sophisticated shaving cream scent.
