Review: Givenchy Gentleman EDT Intense – Do You Need It?

Gentleman EDT Intense.

A highly complimented designer fragrance.

Givenchy Gentleman EDT Intense was released in 2021. It is based on Iris, woods, and various other aromatic accords. It lasts seven to eight hours on the skin with gentlemanly projection. In this review, I will describe its smell and performance and if it’s worth it.

What Does Gentleman EDT Intense Smell Like?

The Iris dominates from the beginning. It is rich and dark rather than soapy and powdery, commonly found in Prada colognes. This gives the fragrance a very classy and sophisticated feel. In the background is a fleeting hit of bergamot. It livens up the opening, and within a few minutes, it is gone.

Into the mid, a hefty dose of green aromatics lingers in. Much of this is from the prominent cypress accord with a woody accent. Over time, the cypress note will become more prominent than the Iris note, which will linger in the background for the rest of the wear.

There is a degree of freshness and spiciness in the mid, but no note donates it specifically. Cardamom is the only spiced note here, but the spices are so subtle that they could be an authentic bergamot or cypress accent.

In the dry down, it is an equal balance between light and dark. A fresh and sweet vein carries Iris into the base. The scent has mostly stayed the same except for the addition of warm cedar that amplifies the woodiness of the fragrance.

Gentleman EDT Intense notes:

Performance

Gentleman EDT Intense lasts seven to eight hours on the skin with gentlemanly projection. It pushes out two to three feet for most of the wear. I call this gentlemanly as it is present but never overwhelming. I get this performance with five sprays.

This is all-season and occasion wear except for the hottest days of summer. The woodiness gets too overpowering when too much heat is applied. In a four-season climate, you’ll get a solid 10 to 11 months of wear out of this.

Similar to the gentlemanly projection, the aroma is also classy and sophisticated so that it will stand out at special events but still be subtle enough for the office and other close-quarter settings.

Lastly, mass appeal and likability are excellent. This is an easy-to-wear, masculine, and polite fragrance. There’s nothing about this fragrance that others will find decisive. And it’s quality enough to garner compliments.

Where Should I Buy Gentleman EDT Intense

Final Words

Gentleman EDT Intense has one clone Dior Homme Eau for Men. But unfortunately, it’s been discontinued. So, technically there aren’t any clones of this fragrance.

The final burning question is, is Givenchy Gentleman EDT Intense worth it? Yes. It’s an excellent masculine and unique fragrance for men. Besides Prada L’Homme, few fragrances can pull off a prominent Iris note and keep the fragrance masculine.

I enjoy this in my collection as it is high-quality but still only priced as a high-end designer fragrance.

After you try Givenchy Gentleman EDT Intense, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
