Gallivant Ta'if is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Angéline Leporini. Ta'if opens with Date, Pink Pepper, Saffron, and Honey, settles into a heart of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Rose, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Balsam, Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Gallivant's Ta'if carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

A bold rose-saffron-honey combo, Gallivant's Ta'if has stirred up quite the fuss in certain circles. Is it a copy or a clever homage? That's up to you to decide, but don't knock it until you've actually smelled it.

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.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Ta'if opens with a richly spiced sweetness-picture sticky honey and dates mingled with the exotic warmth of saffron and a hint of piquant pink pepper. The heart unfurls into a luxurious rose, deepened by the earthy, slightly camphorous cypriol and balsamic frankincense. As it dries, a plush base of amber, musk, and patchouli emerges, anchoring the floral and spicy elements with a smooth, resinous weight. It's a journey from desert blooms to contemplative depths.
