Givenchy and its perfume for Men: Gentlemen Only
Very modern and avant-garde for the early 1970s, this perfume embodied the new provocative sensuality of the men of its time. Its powerful scent was easily identifiable, far from the traditional Eaux de Cologne. Then, in 2013, inspired by his racy elegance, Givenchy decided to deliver us the new portrait of his Gentleman, more contemporary and casual. This is how the Gentlemen Only collection was created. To date, this is one of Givenchy's greatest successes. Gentlemen Only Absolute is its 2016 edition, just as refined, but more warm and spicy than before.
Gentlemen Only Absolute, the fragrance of a sophisticated and seductive man
As the name of this perfume suggests, we have the very essence of the gentleman. Unlike its predecessors, it is an Eau de Parfum. All the compositions of the collection which precedes it are Eaux de Toilettes. It is therefore the most sophisticated perfume of all. If his predecessors easily imagined themselves worn by an elegant man, dressed in a white shirt and perfectly cut jeans, Gentlemen Only Absolute pulls out all the stops… It is more like the tuxedo in the range. It embodies style in its purest form. The man who wears it does not lack charisma and to be noticed by his innate sense of chic.
Gentlemen Only Absolute, a woody, spicy and modern trail
On a purely olfactory level, Gentlemen Only Absolute is materialized by a woody and spicy scent, contemporary and elegant. Although tenacious and powerful, this fragrance never lacks refinement. Its freshness first unfolds in an airy breath of bergamot. Then, as if to mark a break with this very airy side, his heart becomes much spicier. It warms up in contact with three hot spices: Gentlemen Only Absolute brings together nutmeg, saffron and cinnamon. In an ever more seductive and suave spirit, the whole is coated with vanilla. Sensuality then reaches its climax. Gentlemen Only Absolute gradually envelops itself in softness in contact with sandalwood, while letting escape a virile breath, worthy of a gentleman on whom no
When the Givenchy bottle is dressed in a tuxedo
In perfect harmony with the spirit of this perfume, the Givenchy bottle is dressed in elegance. Its silhouette is clearly inspired by that of the very first Gentlemen. However, its color has been completely redesigned. Now, a black lacquer covers the entire bottle, while a red label reveals its name. For a more couture spirit, a white stitching goes around this rectangular label. For a bit, and it looks like the set is taken from the inside of a suit jacket! Undeniably, Gentlemen Only Absolute has released its gala outfit!
