Composition of the fragrance:
First, you’ll be greeted by notes of Scotch whisky and Italian bergamot, which are soon joined by powdery iris, chestnut and resinous benzoin. The underlying base notes blossom with Virginian cedarwood and vetiver essence from Haiti.
Story of the fragrance:
Givenchy Gentleman Réserve Privée was created in Grasse, France, and further refined by Scottish distillers. This collaboration comes through in the form of aromatic barley – an essential ingredient in whisky making.
The theme of whisky, a beverage especially enjoyed among men, is also reflected in the bottle. Starting at the neck, the black-coloured glass gradually turns into a warm whisky hue, creating an impressive contrast. You’ll be familiar with the shape of the bottle, as it’s identical to all the other Givenchy Gentleman fragrances.
