What does Gallant smell like?

It opens with bergamot and lemon alongside fruity and marine notes. In the heart, lavender, rosemary, geranium and iris add a floral, aromatic layer. The base of musk, ambroxan and tonka bean softens and sweetens the scent, while patchouli and labdanum give it a woody depth.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, with winter chosen less often. It is mostly worn for leisure, daily use and the office, and reads masculine. La Rive His Passion and La Rive Prestige - The Man Brown have a close profile.
