Description
Gallivant London Eau de Parfum is one of the world’s most intense metropolises distilled into a surprisingly delicate rose perfume. But London is a city of contrasts that never ceases to surprise. The delicate lushness of super-soft petal blends effortlessly with a dusty smokiness of something deeper.
Top notes are fresh, clean and watery thanks to cucumber and violet leaves but the heart expands into the eternal beauty of a green rose de mai absolute and rounds into rose oil and sumptuous orris root. The base shows sophisticated restraint thanks to smooth suede and leather while the subtle woodiness of sandalwood, patchouli, cedarwood make London a timeless classic.
What London (both perfume and city) does so well is balancing scale. It’s addictive, big, small, soaring, down-to-earth, and done with a sense of humour. East end boys and west end girls. Second-hand leather jackets. Creative, new, old, beautiful, ugly, rich, poor and punk. All rubbing along.
Gallivant Naples (Eau de Parfum) was nominated for the Best Perfume Prize at the 2019 Art and Olfaction Awards in the Independent Category.
