Eden Perfumes No.214 Gentlemen Only is an Eau de Parfum. No.214 Gentlemen Only opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Birch, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Cedar, Vetiver, Violet Leaf, and Elemi, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Licorice, and Caramel. Eden Perfumes's No.214 Gentlemen Only carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

No.214 nails the citrus-woody opening of Givenchy Gentlemen Only - mandarin, pink pepper and cedar are all present and correct - but the sweeter caramel-licorice base is softer and less austere than the original's incense-tinged dry-down, and it wears close to skin.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Eden's No.214 opens convincingly close to Givenchy Gentlemen Only, with mandarin and pink pepper giving the same soft citrus-spice lift, backed by a touch of nutmeg and birch leaf for texture. The cedar-vetiver heart is where the resemblance is strongest, delivering that suave, understated woodiness the original is known for, with violet leaf and elemi keeping it from feeling too dry. The base is the clearest point of divergence: rather than the incense-laced, slightly austere finish of the designer version, Eden settles into a softer caramel and licorice sweetness sitting alongside patchouli. It is a pleasant warm-woody finish in its own right, just less formal and more approachable than the original's reserved character. Longevity is modest - reviewers consistently note this is not a long-wearing formula, closer to four or five hours rather than a full working day, so it suits a top-up in the pocket for evening. Overall it captures the tone of Gentlemen Only well enough for casual reference but softens the parts that made the original feel quietly expensive.
