Gentleman (2017)

A refined and versatile fragrance that opens with a bright, juicy pear note paired with delicate cardamom and pineapple, creating a fresh, slightly sweet starting impression. This evolves into a soft, powdery iris heart, expertly blended with lavender and subtle leather, giving a clean, elegant character that remains masculine without being aggressive. The drydown features a soft, warm vanilla and patchouli base, adding depth and a whisper of sweetness, with a subtle woody undertone that enhances the fragrance's modern sophistication. While not bold or dramatically unique, it strikes a consistent balance between freshness and warmth, making it highly wearable year-round. The sillage is moderate, and longevity is moderate to above average on most skin types, with some reports of slightly weaker performance. Despite criticism for its name reusing an iconic original, it stands on its own as a well-crafted, elegant gentleman’s cologne suitable for office wear, casual outings, or evening occasions, especially among those who appreciate a refined, slightly sweet floral-woody scent with a powdery, soft touch.
