Gentleman Réserve Privée, the fragrance of a sophisticated and daring man. The men's fragrance Gentleman Réserve Privée takes us back to the heart of Givenchy's history, and more precisely to 1975, when the house launched its new Gentleman, in complete break with the compositions of its time. It was then a more powerful and highly couture fragrance.
Since 2017, Givenchy's Gentleman line has offered a new vision of man and elegance. It reveals a masculine character built on paradoxes, between daring and delicacy. In 2022, the story continues with the creation of a highly original fragrance, developed jointly by master perfumers and master distillers. Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy carries the scent of whisky aged in an oak cask, while also releasing a fresh, aromatic, and floral facet. As for the bottle, it is just as contrasted and refined.
The return of Givenchy's iconic flask
Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy comes in the iconic bottle of the Gentleman collection, whose original 1975 shape has been slightly modernized. As a reminder, it is inspired by a whisky flask. It is therefore a shape that fits this new creation perfectly. The whole is defined by clean lines and a timeless chic. It embodies eternal elegance, made of simplicity. The whole is topped with an opaque black cylindrical cap, resembling a top hat, worthy of a true gentleman!
The amber tones of Gentleman Réserve Privée
To echo its scent, Gentleman Réserve Privée relies on amber tones for its bottle. It is split into two distinct parts. Its upper half is completely opaque. It is tinted with a gradient in warm shades of coppery brown. Its lower half, meanwhile, lets us glimpse its juice through transparency, also in an amber shade. The whole resembles a cask-aged whisky, hinting at its whole intoxicating scent.
The highly refined, couture style of Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy
Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy is also enhanced with a few highly refined and elegant attributes. First of all, it wins us over with the heavy weight of its glass, which gives it a certain presence as well as a perfect grip. Added to this are a few detailed elements, such as the brand's logo stamped directly on its cap. A large black label also joins the two parts of this bottle, while being styled with bright gold lettering. Finally, in a more responsible commercial approach, note that the bottle of Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy is also made from 15% recycled glass.
A bottle that is reminiscent of some of its predecessors
The visual of Gentleman Réserve Privée by Givenchy recalls several of its predecessors. Its shape remains entirely unchanged, as do its 60 ml and 100 ml sizes. Its color, however, is transformed. After pure white, tuxedo black, and woody brown, Gentleman Réserve Privée changes its dress code. It now takes on brown and honeyed colors, like those of a liqueur-like whisky. Its many contrasts, in turn, echo the disparities in the personality of gentlemen, at times refined, but also capable of a strong, more daring temperament.
