Gentleman Eau de Parfum
A modern, refined masculine that blends a juicy pear and iris heart with a warm woody-ambery base. Elegant and versatile, it bridges fresh and sophisticated registers with ease.
Gentleman Eau de Parfum opens on Pear and Cardamom, moves through Iris and Lavender, and dries down to Patchouli and Amber. At $80 - $120 it is which sits at fair mid-range value, with long lasting (8h - 10h) on skin. Reasonably safe to blind buy if the note list appeals to you.

EXPERT ANALYSIS — COMPOSITION & PERFORMANCE
Composed by Nathalie Lorson & Olivier Cresp for Givenchy in 2017, Gentleman Eau de Parfum sits in the juicy fruit space of modern perfumery. Below, our research team breaks down its olfactory structure, measured performance, and ideal wearer.
The Opening
It opens on Pear, Cardamom, Pink Pepper, a juicy fruit and warm spice introduction that sets expectations before the heart emerges.
The Heart
The middle phase is floral and aromatic herb: Iris, Lavender, Lily of the Valley carry the core of the scent through its most expressive hours.
The Dry-Down
Hours later it resolves into a golden amber and sweet gourmand foundation — Patchouli, Amber, Vanilla — that determines the lasting memory of the scent.
Who Should Buy Gentleman Eau de Parfum
Gentleman Eau de Parfum leans masculine but is wearable by anyone who enjoys the style. Its season vector points strongest to autumn, and its day/night balance makes it best suited to versatile day-to-night wear. If you gravitate toward juicy fruit and floral compositions and want strong longevity, it belongs on your shortlist.
No major red flags in the composition, but fragrance is personal — skin chemistry can shift the balance of notes, so a sample wear is always wiser than a blind purchase at this price.
