Givenchy Gentleman is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Olivier Cresp and Nathalie Lorson. Gentleman opens with Bergamot, Lavender, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Iris, Cinnamon, and Clove, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Benzoin. Givenchy's Gentleman carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A refined and charismatic take on the modern woody-amber theme, blending smooth iris and spicy vanilla for a scent that's as inviting as it is magnetic. Effortlessly masculine, rich, and memorable.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The warm spicy, vanilla, and amber notes thrive in cool to cold weather, making it ideal for fall and winter. Its richness works for early spring but can be cloying in summer heat.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

The inviting, sensual character and moderate projection make it perfect for date nights and evenings out, while its smoothness is sophisticated enough for formal events. It's less suited for office or sports due to its potency.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Gentleman Eau de Parfum envelops you in a sophisticated blend of peppery spice, powdery iris, and decadent black vanilla husk. The opening is a sharp burst of black pepper and lavender, quickly melting into a creamy, floral heart of orris and spices. Its base is deep and enveloping, with tonka bean and tolu balsam amplifying the amber-vanilla warmth. The result is a plush, elegant signature-smooth, sensual, and undeniably modern, balancing classic masculine codes with a contemporary, inviting sweetness.
