Wearing this tonight for our 17th anniversary because my wife surprised me with the bottle and it felt right to reach for it. Tygar opens with bright sparkling grapefruit that feels almost fizzy in the air. It settles into clean amber woods that give it a smooth and polished finish. Simple structure but very refined. The Le Gemme line is Bvlgari’s luxury collection inspired by gemstones. Each scent is meant to reflect the character of its stone. Tygar takes after tigers eye with that energetic citrus shine and warm steady wood base. Keeping it short tonight and just enjoying the evening.

I got this in one of the TPG Scent Kits last year, and it's been sitting on the shelf gathering dust. I watched a video the other day showcasing the brand, and realized that I had this, along with their Supermassive Amber fragrance. I sprayed it last night for the first time in over a year, and I was stopped in my tracks. Absolutely stunning fragrance. It's a smokey vanilla that's very masculine. I would swear there is a bit of tobacco in here, but it's not listed in the notes. The dry down is a bit musky, but it's balanced by the smokey vanilla giving it a very complex profile. It's very well blended, and smells high quality. Longevity is a solid 12 hours, though the projection is closer to the body. I can smell it all day long, but it's not so loud as to be noticed beyond about a foot or two. This might be my new favorite vanilla fragrance. I'm going to try the Ambre version from the line later this week, and I see that there's a new Supermassive Oud that was released this year, so I will try to get my hands on that as well.
