Recently saw this as a Tester sale and went for it because of the price point. I wish I hadn’t waited as long as I did for this. As may of you know, this is an absolutely amazing frag. I haven’t had the opportunity to give it a full test drive yet. Thanks once again to the BOS for helping me blind buy a frag based off of your amazing reviews.

Just got my first bottle of this gem and couldn't be happier. Such a great take on tabacco. Anyone else using this one?

Good morning Frag Fam and happy Tuesday. Waking up with purpose always feels a little sweeter when the community is right here moving with the same passion and energy. I hope your day starts smooth, your spirit feels light and your scent sets the tone for everything you plan to conquer today. Today’s wear is Gentleman Eau de Parfum Boisée by Givenchy, one of the very small handful of designer fragrances I actually keep in my rotation. Every time I revisit it, I’m reminded why it earned its place. The opening brings that warm, spicy woods vibe that feels both polished and grounded, never trying too hard but still making its presence known. As it settles, the cacao and cedar start doing this soft, creamy dance that gives the fragrance a quietly masculine confidence. For a designer scent, the performance holds its own impressively well, with good sillage and projection that carries you through the day without ever shouting. It feels dependable, approachable and well put together. Overall, Gentleman Eau de Parfum Boisée lands at a solid 7.2, a fragrance that earns respect through balance and comfort rather than flash.

It is about 84 degrees in Cerritos today so I went with a fresh option. I prefer the Parfum over the EDT because the marine note is more controlled here and the aromatics show up faster. The citrus still pops, but it does not dominate the way it does in the EDT. Clary sage and rosemary give it that clean aromatic spice. There is olibanum in the base which adds a soft resin feel and a light incense effect without any smoke. It rounds everything out and keeps the scent smooth on warm days. Nothing too deep to say about it. It is a classic and for weather like this it is an easy reach.

It's not usual for me to repeat fragrances, but something about it led me to make this Decision. See my review from a few days ago below. https://www.skool.com/bos/sotd-decision-by-amouage-2
