Gentleman Only gains intensity with L'Absolute. It all began in 1975, when Hubert de Givenchy decided to create a fragrance called Gentleman. The third masculine fragrance in his catalog, it was a scent in total break with other compositions of its time.
The story of Givenchy's gentleman began in 1975. The Gentleman was a powerful fragrance, surely too much so for its time. Givenchy then waited until 2013 to present its new gentleman, Gentleman Only. A cult fragrance, both sensual and modern, whose success owes not a little to the charisma of Simon Baker. Released in 2016, Gentleman Only Absolute is a variation on the famous Gentleman Only. At once oriental, floral and spicy, the Gentleman Only Absolute fragrance is undeniably the essence of the new gentlemen of the twenty-first century.
Gentleman Only Absolute, the elegance of Simon Baker
Between luxury, sophistication and elegance, this marks four times that Simon Baker has been the face of the campaign for Givenchy. He wonderfully represents charm, glamour, chic and a man's timeless elegance. Very gallant, Simon Baker is a gentleman both in life and on screen, and he is mainly known for his highly celebrated role in Mentalist. Simon Baker was voted the sexiest man by TV Magazine, and Givenchy seems to share that opinion. Simon Baker symbolizes a generation of men who wonderfully combine personal success, professional success and natural charisma. This modern-day gentleman seduces women, almost in spite of himself. One could say he has it all. Black and red, the bottle could have been the lining of a Givenchy haute couture jacket. The glossy black adds a touch of sophistication, while the red is reminiscent of the house's fabrics. Between luxury, sophistication and elegance, Givenchy has thought of everything to make Gentleman Only Absolute an irresistible fragrance.
The trio of warm spices in Gentleman Only Absolute
Gentleman Only Absolute opens on extremely fresh and invigorating tones, first that of bergamot, but also that of bitter orange, also known as bigarade. The heart is not only spicy, but truly bold. Indeed, it combines three warm spices, namely cinnamon, nutmeg and saffron, giving the whole an undisputed masculine power. This oriental and sensual olfactory signature develops toward a base that is likewise very sensual and always ultra masculine. Indeed, the base notes combine vanilla and sandalwood, leaving behind a sillage that is both creamy and enveloping. Tender, powerful, virile and fresh, the Gentleman Only Absolute fragrance has everything it takes to seduce men, but especially women.
A variation on the famous Gentleman Only, Givenchy presents Gentleman Only Absolute. At once fresh, spicy and floral, Gentleman Only Absolute is a fragrance dedicated to the gentlemen of the twenty-first century. Like Simon Baker, today's gentleman knows how to be considerate, bringing gallantry up to date. His natural charisma acts in spite of himself, and his admirers are far more numerous than he realizes.
