Kilian Vodka on the Rocks is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Vodka on the Rocks opens with Cardamom, Coriander, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rhubarb, Rose, and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Ambroxan. Kilian's Vodka on the Rocks carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This one is as divisive as it is refreshing. While some reviewers rave about its unique icy vodka accord and versatility, others dismiss it as a forgettable, overpriced designer imposter. Definitely not for everyone, but a firm favourite for its fans.

About

Opening with a bracing, almost effervescent aldehyde blast, this scent immediately evokes the crisp, cold snap of vodka on ice. Cardamom and coriander add a subtle, piquant spice, lending an initial aromatic lift. As it settles, a clean, watery rose and tart rhubarb emerge, underpinned by a soft, musky base of ambroxan and earthy oakmoss, creating a cool yet sophisticated aura.
