Bvlgari Tygar is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Tygar opens with Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Ginger and Ambrette, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Ambroxan. Bvlgari's Tygar carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A sparkling citrus beast with a polarizing price tag and a cult following. Tygar is an addictive, high-quality ambroxan bomb that’s inspired a legion of clones. Lovers insist nothing touches the original, while critics point to its high price and sometimes-mediocre performance.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Tygar's fresh, invigorating profile makes it perfect for casual and sporty wear, especially in warm weather. While it's sophisticated enough for some dates and formal events, its strong projection (at least for some) might be a bit much for a quiet office setting.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Tygar bursts with a sharp, juicy grapefruit that immediately electrifies the senses. This zesty opening is quickly tempered by the spicy kick of ginger and the soft, musky warmth of ambrette. As it settles, a clean, mineral ambroxan comes to the fore, intertwined with earthy vetiver and a hint of patchouli, creating a smooth, refined, and distinctly modern character.
