Givenchy Vaporisateur

Product Information

If Givenchy was going for an understated fragrance, this one took it a bit too far - no point in wearing one at all if no one including yourself can smell it. it might be a little faceless or generic but whoever is close to you will probably like how you smell which is never to be ‘sniffed at.

The scent is of the highest quality, comparable with that of Chanel, Dior or Creed's top fragrances. Can’t imagine wearing it during the day or in the summer except maybe somewhere hot like an upmarket Ibizan restaurant or smokey boys club. The dry down is pretty rapid, about an hour, and although not particularly interesting (I didn't detect even a hint of the alleged vetiver) it's nonetheless quite pleasant. Festival Vibes by Hollister invokes a juicy opening with top notes of goji berries, quince and bergamot. As said, GENTLEMAN -- I think this is accurate, charming, strong, masculine, sexy with a tad of playfulness and comfort.However, I think it has a certain smoothness to its spicy-aquatic notes that makes it smell more luxurious and of a better quality. I fully adore the scent when it’s present, but that is a damningly brief amount of time, and I’m not really able to forgive it that flaw. The cedar sits firmly in the backdrop as if to offer them a floor to spin around on while they stare into each others eyes with love, while talking to their casual friends of mandarin, and incense, and their eccentric flighty buddy of nutmeg lingers in and out of the room.

Gentlemen Only - the new fragrance from Givenchy is a distinguished, charming and elegant fragrance. The overall smell is something like the pink pepper accord you get in Spicebomb, but it's crisper, less-sweet, and a bit more brisk and airy as well. I won't do it for fear of wearing it out from over use (that's what happened to me with Prada l'homme), but this is the perfect office scent that will get you noticed and give you a clean and attractive confidence.Instead, they ended up with a peppery sour citrus fresh scent held down by the heavy part, and violet pulling everything yet another way. This fragrance was once revolutionary amongst masculine fragrance introducing strong and intense woody notes instead of the traditional aromatic and citrusy ones. I dont get much vetiver on my skin, instead i get main floral vibe with background of pepper and incense.

If I were have a moment of synaesthetic realization, I would color this a pastel blue, white, cream, and sandcastle. I was expecting something with much more depth and density based off the pink pepper, vetiver, and incense being the most agreed upon notes. Though it's been copied so many times don't be afraid to look around for clones such as Rasasi Hawas. Givenchy Gentlemen Only just kind of hung out in the background in comparison to all these other fragrances that were dropping around that time (there were a lot!I can’t get into what the notes smell like (I’m just getting into this fragrance journey) but I will say it smells masculine and a bit rugged but totally refined and classy. Today was the first really warm day of the year, but I'm in an office and not moving around much so I'm hoping that as it gets hotter and I'm more active in the coming months that the scent will come alive. BOTH fragrances are scents for gentlemen - they're not meant to shout out your presence unless someone walks right by you.

Never lost a case btw, and I’ve grown out of that juvenile jaunt fortunately unscathed and I honestly feel this cologne is what made the public defenders give a damn. What might smell “old-school” to me might be newly discovered by a younger nose who never grew up with an older generation.Edit: this gift was given in my teenage years (more than 10 years ago); I say this because I recently went to a mall, tried it again (nostalgia) and it smells DIFFERENT. Gentlemen Only Intense offers a sensual, powerful and subtle version of Gentlemen Only, reaching new heights, where the seductive power of a rich, almost hypnotic scent naturally asserts itself. Givenchy - Gentlemen Only is a hidden gem, a truly spectacular fragrance that somehow hasn't got much hype or love from the community. An elegant woody neo-aromatic Eau de Toilette infused with rich green, spice and wood notes that exudes an unsettling sensuality that breaks with convention. Its natural masculinity asserts itself through spicy aromatic notes that are invigorating and attractive.
