A very talented young perfume at IFF called Olivier Polge (whose father is Jacques Polge of Chanel) has created the scent.<\/p>\n<p>There are not many fragrances that appeal to the Japanese, and I can often tell whether a fragrance is going to work in Japanese market or not. Kenzopower will do great in Japan among both men and women.<\/p>\n<p>Why did I like it?
