Gallivant Los Angeles is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Karine Chevallier. Los Angeles opens with Mandarin, Pineapple, Clary Sage, and Eucalyptus, settles into a heart of Sea Water, Tuberose, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Cade, Musk, and Guaiac Wood. Gallivant's Los Angeles carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a proper Marmite scent, isn't it? Love it or hate it, Gallivant's Los Angeles throws a curveball of juicy tropical fruit against camphor and wood that's either brilliantly unique or a synthetic nightmare. Definitely try before you buy.

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

Gallivant Los Angeles opens with a vibrant, almost shocking burst of juicy pineapple, sharp eucalyptus, and zesty mandarin, giving it an invigorating, clean edge. As it settles, a sweet, creamy tuberose emerges alongside salty marine notes, conjuring a coastal breeze. The base deepens with earthy guaiac wood and a hint of smoky cade, grounded by soft musk and a touch of powdery heliotrope, making for an unconventional yet captivating dry down.
