    My hypothesis is that the Dior Homme line changed direction to give more room to the Givenchy Gentleman to explore iris-based scents. Both Christian Dior and Givenchy belong to LVMH, so it could make sense that at a higher level it was decided that way.

      I often see people assuming that companies owned by one parent company would mean that they cooperate to get the most traffic, but no. How much Dior earns determines their budged on product creation and advertising. So yeah, to put it very simply, they’re like children competing for who gets most candy

    I think you gave a very fair assessment of the line. I do love Reserve Privee though. It has some addictive quality to it that I constantly want to smell. At times I think the whisky, iris, or nutty notes are long gone but then I'll get up and move around or a light breeze hits and I'll get a nice pop from them.

  • @fredbell23

    I love your channel but I’m not sure I agree with your Gentleman Society point. You are the same person that recommends Rasasi Hawas and there is nothing cheaper (headache inducing) and synthetic smelling than that. Society I thought was a nice office scent with a very enjoyable vanilla dry down. It’s not groundbreaking but it’s a step above these juvenile fragrances that have flooded the market.

    I may not agree with everything you say but I absolutely respect the honesty and fair assessment across the board. I do agree that Gentleman Society is basically everything wrong with modern fragrances, it's pleasant enough but there's no meat on the bones and it doesn't even need to exist. I do however love the original Gentleman from 74, EDP, Boisee and the Reserve Privee is one of my go-to Fall/Winter Scents. To each his own though 🤘🏼

Specifically, the Boisee and everyone’s favorite Reserve Privee. However, I still think they are overpriced for what they are.

    I always enjoy your videos even when I disagree - which isn't too often. I really like this line in general, even Society. I cannot, however, get with Intense. For whatever reason it gives me a headache and I'm talking two sprays, one on each side. The line may not be niche level, but I don't expect it to be. It's good for what it is especially given that people aren't walking around with iris notes. That said, and speaking of iris, none of these even come close to Amouage Interlude Black Iris which we both love and think is a masterpiece.

Still totally worth it to try if you see it anywhere. The opening will blow you away.

    I am new to the Givenchy Gentleman line and have bought Boisee and Privee within the last month or so. I absolutely love both of them and might consider them the best out of the 75 different colognes from all the different brands that I have. They both are absolutely amazing! Boisee is my favorite through its entire life from start to finish and Privee more in the dry down. As far as they smell they are absolute masterpieces to me and I truly feel I would never need to search for different colognes again, they are that good to me. My only problem is performance even when sprayed on cloths. I do not get the 6-8 hours or 8-10 hours at all. A few hours total and then they both are barely detectable even if I burry my face in my shirt. Its frustrating to me to have 2 of the best smelling colognes (my opinion) with some of the worst performance. I can't buy these again unfortunately because of it. Hopefully Givenchy comes out with an extreme version of these and they last longer. It really is a shame that they couldn't make these perform better.

    I have tried edt intense and edp. As a 30's age person, I enjoyed more the edp version, sexy, special and pleasant fragrance. Edt intense is just a hint of the edp with more freshness and save side notes that everyone would like specially younger age, when I smelled it I had that feeling of I know this smell. But edp is very special combination that you will never find the same in market.

    Sampled réserve privé and Boisé. Réserve privé is my favorite by far. The whisky opening is very realistic and the sweet dry down is impeccable. Boisé felt very familiar and nothing special about it.
    It reminded me of YSL Parfum or old school JPG Le male in the opening with some powder in the mix but drying down to a boring woody accord.
