Givenchy Gentlemen Only Parisian Break is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2016. Gentlemen Only Parisian Break opens with Lemon and Mint, settles into a heart of Sage, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Ambroxan. Givenchy's Gentlemen Only Parisian Break carries a Favourite verdict, a soft spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive one. For some, it's a 'sexual toothpaste' that's clean, fresh, and effortlessly handsome. Others find it bland, generic, and forgettable, a 'blue shower gel scent' that disappeared too quickly for a reason. Its unique charm is definitely in the nose of the beholder.

About

It hits you with a bright, zesty lemon and a cool, invigorating blast of mint, like a refreshing urban breeze. The heart settles into an earthy, herbaceous sage, giving it an aromatic depth, before drying down to a smooth blend of clean, woody vetiver and a modern, slightly musky ambroxan base. It's built for those sunny, casual days, a fresh, clean scent that evokes a relaxed elegance.
