Brooklyn

Brooklyn by Gallivant is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, lemon, sweet orange, incense, cardamom and ozonic notes, moves into magnolia, iris and white flowers and dries down to musk, benzoin and amber. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.

Notes, explained

Opening

Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Ozonic Notes The smell of air before a storm. Sharp, clean, slightly electric.

Heart

Magnolia Lemony white floral. Bright and clean rather than heavy.
Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
White Flowers A blend of creamy white petals rather than one named flower.

Dry-down

Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
