Après l’Amour is a 1960’s Serge Gainsbourg song filtered through the synth pop sensibilities of the 1980’s: candied lemon-rind musks and animalic notes suspended in a haze of modern woody-ambery aromachemicals. It smells like human skin after lovemaking – erotically charged, moist, musky – but thanks to a mesh of powerfully dry, smoky woods and electric ambers, broadcast at high volume to the rest of the world.

It’s this constant shifting of the scent from intimate to radiant and back to intimate again that makes Après l’Amour work. It seems to come with its own atmosphere - a crackle of electricity in the air; the rumbling of a storm to come. Utterly modern, even a bit brash, it’s one of those my-skin-but-better fragrances that send out a subliminal message of attractiveness without you really knowing why or how. If you like scents such as Molecule 01 and Another 13, make sure you don’t miss out on Après l’Amour.

Here's what other people are saying about No. 4 Apres l'Amour...

I loveeee, loveee, loveeeee this fragrance. It’s bold at first, but just keeps changing as the day goes by… long projectivity… I love all Thomas Kosmala fragrances, just amazing.

Bought this since it was recommended to me since I like Baccarat Rouge 540. Omg it’s horrible!!! It’s so strong of rubbing alcohol, it’s nauseating. I 10/10 do not recommend this. My husband wore it to work and his coworkers told him he stunk ??? Do not buy.

Ok not sure if it’s my nose or what, but the scent is faint or not there. I got a sample and it’s giving me nothing at all. I’m so confused, I smell alcohol and maybe light musk, but none of the other notes.

By Michael L - Organizer from St Louis on 5/8/2024

I’m convinced that my sample must have mistakenly been filled with the wrong fragrance, because the impression I got is nothing like the reviews. This fragrance is so sharp and pungent I can barely stand the smell. To me, it’s more like Baccarat Rouge watered down by rubbing alcohol. I would not purchase a full size.

By A. Wills - CLS from Miami on 5/13/2023

Got me few different samples and one of them happened to be No. 4 Apres l'Amour. It’s a very nice fragrance. Bought right away without hesitation. So far this is my #1 perfume.

OMG OMG Luckyscent, you guys ROCK! I received the No. 4 Apres l'Amour which I just discovered two weeks ago at Dillar's and honestly smells way better than baccarat and PLUSSSSS 30% off and samples that I want it to smell since been a while. Will be no other place where I'll purchase my favs perfumes from now on!

By Karim - Engineer from Texas on 7/13/2022

I have spent many years, probably half of my life (I'm 33 year old male), looking for the perfect scent. The one I would never need to replace. Even though my taste is very particular (I do not like "name" brands,I like an extremely hard to articulate scent) I have had the pleasure of discovering and wearing quite a few contenders. But about a month a go, LuckyScent did a scent tailoring trial for me, sending me samples based on favorite scents of mine. One of the scents they sent me was No. 4 Apres L'Amour. I now cannot get enough of it and neither can anybody else. It's like that 1 song that when u hear it it just melts ur heart with feelings of happiness, hope, sunshine, and love. It's not just a perfect scent, it is a perfect feeling:)

“It smells better than Baccarat.” That is what the office ladies at my dentist said yesterday. I have never gotten more compliments on perfume in my life. And it’s one of those things where I stop smelling it on myself, so I’m taken off guard when someone asks me what perfume I’m wearing. Just yesterday I’ve had to write down the name of the perfume three times. You can count on having to do that at least once a day. In all honesty, this is not my all-time favorite perfume. Baccarat gives me a headache and this is 100 times better in my opinion. I’m obsessed with Mango Skin and anything by Thoo. But I was looking for something to fill a gap in my perfume wardrobe and this was it.

By Welligirl - SAHM from Wellington on 11/18/2021

I didn’t have time to open the perfume. However, I’ve smelled it elsewhere. I know it’s very good and it’s beast mood. It was great dealing with LuckyScent, they even gave me a 5th sample for free and I have only requested 4. Thanks a lot

By Ahmed - Student from Richmond on 9/22/2021

Thomas Kosmala #4 Apres L'amour is BY FAR my favorite fragrance everrrrr! I have Baccarat Rouge, and to me this is richer and stronger...and just more special. There is not a day when I am wearing this fragrance, when I do not receive a compliment on it...literally, from passers by, I have had to write it down, show them the link to purchase, I am serious! It was out of stock for a while..so happy Luckyscent got #4 back in stock. I would be happy wearing this forever.

By Sheree - Hair and makeup artist from New York on 7/3/2021

Yep, this is BR540 with better performance. EASYYYYY on the trigger, this is a BEAST of a fragrance. I made the mistake of spraying this 4-5 times and that was WAAAAYYYYYY too much. I used to hate BR540 and never understood why it had such a cult following. No. 4 has changed my mind. This is a fraction of the cost and performs better than BR540. Not to mention, I love the packaging on this one.

By Alexis - Bookkeeper from Austin on 2/17/2020

This was gifted to me but I've fallen in love. It's not my usual perfume but it's LOVELY - embraces my skin and exudes a comforting/enticing aura. I think it's the combo of the bitter orange/lemon tamed by the amber/musk/wood that makes it so gorgeous. It's a very subtle effect but even though it's light, the smell lingers all day and many friends have noticed it. If you want a lighter perfume with good sillage and a "I will spend all day in my pj's" vibe, this is it. Give it a try as the dry down is amazing.

By Michele - consultant from Weybridge on 2/7/2020

This is a nice fragrance. Even though it has wood/amber/musk, it definitely plays out as gourmand on my skin. I am enjoying the sample but I would not purchase. For a similar mood, I adore Long Courrier, which I desperately wish LuckyScent would bring back, or also Piotr Czarnecki—Shihan.
