The story behind the bottle.
Paul Léger crafted Givenchy's Gentleman Original 2024 as a Woody Aromatic fragrance that marries earthy depth with warm spice. The composition opens with the sharp, herbal notes of tarragon and cinnamon before settling into a rich patchouli heart. Vetiver and Russian leather add an animalic undertone, creating a scent that is both grounding and complex. This new iteration stays true to Givenchy's legacy of blending French elegance with subtle sophistication.
Apply this fragrance in layers for maximum impact — start with one spray to let it settle before adding another. The patchouli base develops slowly over time, so it's best suited for evening wear when you can appreciate its full depth.
