Gallivant | Istanbul | Eau de Parfum Created by perfumer Karine Chevallier, Istanbul is an olfactory postcard from the city where East meets West. Inspired by the Bosphorus, the scent of ancient spice markets, and the warmth of sun-bleached wood, this fragrance captures the multifaceted soul of the Turkish metropolis. It is a journey through time and culture, balancing the cool, aromatic freshness of the morning with the deep, resinous glow of an Istanbul sunset. It is a fragrance for the modern traveler, someone who seeks history and mystery in equal measure. Olfactory Pyramid: Top Notes: Bergamot, Cardamom, Red Thyme Heart Notes: Lavender Absolute, Geranium, Patchouli, Sweet Myrrh (Opoponax) Base Notes: Sandalwood, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Amber, Musks Vibe: "The Spiced Bosphorus", warm, spicy, woody-amber, and sophisticatedly nostalgic. Performance: Istanbul offers a reliable and inviting performance. It delivers 8–10 hours of longevity with a sillage that is purposefully moderate, designed to be a persistent but intimate "scent trail" rather than an overwhelming cloud. The aromatic opening of Cardamom and Thyme provides a bright, energetic entry, while the Sandalwood and Sweet Myrrh foundation ensures a velvety, long-lasting dry down that remains comforting on the skin and natural fabrics throughout the day.
