GAP Close Eau de Toilette 10ml Splash is a soft, skin-warm feminine fragrance from the American fashion house GAP. Composed in 2009 by perfumer Marypierre Julien, it captures an intimate "close-to-skin" feel — a soft mix of citrus and water notes at the top, gentle white florals at the heart, and a comforting vanilla-amber-musk base. The 10ml splash format makes it ideal for travel and handbag carry. About GAP Fragrances GAP is a global American casual-wear and lifestyle brand, founded in San Francisco in 1969. The GAP fragrance line has aimed at the same easy, accessible aesthetic — unfussy compositions designed for everyday wear rather than statement evening glamour. Close was launched in April 2009 to target a more mature 20-plus customer with a polished, comforting feminine signature. Fragrance notes Top: Salt, Almond, Water Notes, Citruses Heart: Heliotrope, Jasmine, Freesia Base: Musk, Vanilla, Sandalwood, Amber Olfactory family: Floral Musk | Launched: 2009 | Perfumer: Marypierre Julien The story behind Close The composition's name says it all — it's a fragrance designed to wear close to the skin, with a soft, salted-water freshness at the opening that quickly settles into a powdery white-floral heart of heliotrope, jasmine and freesia. A creamy almond touch bridges the structure, and the warm, well-rounded base of musk, vanilla, sandalwood and amber gives the composition a quietly sensual character — never loud, always personal. Who it's for Close suits women who like soft, intimate, easy-to-wear fragrances — those who reach for Glossier You, Maison Margiela Replica Lazy Sunday Morning or Clean Skin. It works across all seasons, with particular flattery in spring and autumn. The 10ml splash format is ideal as a starter bottle, a travel companion or a discreet handbag size. How to wear it Apply to clean, moisturised skin so the soft musks have something to bind to. Dab a few drops onto pulse points: wrists, neck and behind the ears. Splash bottles benefit from a careful touch — tip a small amount onto a fingertip and apply, rather than pouring directly onto the skin. Reapply during the day as needed — eau de toilette concentrations are deliberately soft and personal.
