GALLIVANT Naples Eau de Parfum recalls a place with a raucous pulsating spirit, a working port city with a noble and glorious past. Salty sea air. The lingering warmth of late afternoon sun. Church candles, smoke, incense. The darkness of narrow, winding backstreets. Faded grandeur, a whiff of decadence. The pleasures of people-watching: Neapolitans dressed in gorgeous tailored clothes. Sartorial sharpness, old-school glamour …
Fresh and spicy in the opening, with ginger, pink pepper CO2, bergamot from neighbouring Calabria, sea salts and airy ozonic notes. A smoky heart with incense resinoid, fumencens (another incense material, which reinforces the light-dark contrast of this fragrance), cardamom, nutmeg, and labdanum. And a woody base of guaiac wood, ‘green molecule’ clearwood (in combination with natural patchouli), birch, vetiver and amber. Made in Great Britain.
