My Full Fragrance Review:
Hello everyone, today I’m eager to present to you my first review for a Givenchy fragrance, and it’s none other than Gentleman Réserve Privée. The rich, boozy note caught my attention when I first heard about this perfume – as a huge fan of alcoholic notes in scents, I couldn’t resist but dive straight in. The kicker? It holds a striking similarity to Dior Homme Intense. Stick around as I share my detailed opinion on this intriguing fragrance.
Quick Facts:
Smell:
The moment I took a whiff of Gentleman Réserve Privée, the picture that formed in my mind was crystal clear – a sophisticated gentleman, calmly seated in a lounge with a glass of well-aged whiskey, emanating an aura of maturity and elegance. And with that image, I realized how aptly the fragrance is named – it truly is a private reserve for the gentleman.
Now, don’t be mistaken, there’s more to it than the inviting boozy whiskey note. The scent is underlined by a powerful iris note, which brings forth a sophisticated, powdery touch to the mix. The combination is smoothed out with some woods and a subtle sweetness. If you’ve ever enjoyed the likes of Prada L’Homme or Dior Homme Intense, Gentleman Réserve Privée is your next stop. It’s a potent fragrance perfect for winter, and in my opinion, best suited for men above 40 who appreciate the finer things in life.
While the powdery iris note might hint at office wear, the playful whiskey note lends it a casual flair, making it an ideal companion for date nights or evening gatherings.
Longevity:
If you’re wondering about the lasting power, let me save you some time. Gentleman Réserve Privée stays with you, persistently. It might not be the boldest performer after a few hours, but it certainly will remain in your intimate aura for an impressive duration. The longevity is definitely better than average.
