This is very unique! It’s got notes of iris, coffee, wood, and peppermint. So it’s very different in the sense that it’s sweet, but fresh! The opening is very refreshing with that peppermint, but then it turns into a sweet iris, coffee, woody elegance. Honestly one it settles it really shines! It’s perfect for a date night or for an elegant event. It’s very versatile in the sense that you can use it in different seasons throughout the year while dressing it up! It projects just enough for it to not be overwhelming. Honestly, it’s very high value!

This is exactly what it says it is, a gentleman’s fragrance. It’s a very grown up, sophisticated, mature scent. I get a strong coffee opening but, if you’re not keen on coffee, don’t let that put you off. Neither am I, but this is blended in a way that I, surprisingly, really like. It’s done in an aromatic, powdery way, whilst keeping the DNA of the line. It’s basically taken the EDT / EFP, added a shot of coffee and made it slightly richer and more powdery. The more it dries down, the more it falls in line with the EDP. This is suitable for most occasions, although it leans more towards formal events, and I’d say all seasons apart from high summer. Above average longevity and decent projection for hours 1 and 2. Overall, a beautifully sophisticated, grown up, handsome fragrance.

A classy men’s release from Givenchy. The opening introduces the society famous aromatic spicy burst. The heart uses coffee or a “cold brew” to join the iris and vetiver to leave those near you curious for more. The warm sandalwood, vanilla, and cedar provides a masculine base that feels quite polished. I’d wear this fragrance anytime! Versatile and Dark!
