Bask in Sunny Floral Warmth: Gallivant Tel Aviv Sample
Surrender to a sunny, Mediterranean floral warmth with Gallivant Tel Aviv, launched in 2017 as a Floral Fruity Eau de Parfum (unisex) crafted by master perfumer Karine Chevallier—a radiant masterpiece evoking the vibrant beaches, bustling markets, and golden light of Tel Aviv through juicy citrus bursts, lush white florals, and soft musky-woody depth. This glowing city gem opens with a fresh, fruity burst of clementine, bergamot, and blackcurrant bud for bright, tangy-citrus freshness with a green-fruity edge, then blooms with jasmine sambac absolute, Comoros ylang-ylang, rose oil, and freesia for creamy, indolic-floral heart, anchoring in a luxurious base of sandalwood, musks, deer's tongue (liatrix) absolute, and benzoin for warm, powdery-musky intensity with subtle leathery undertones. It's fruity yet floral, fresh yet languorous, beachy yet sophisticated—like sun-ripened clementine laced with green blackcurrant and bergamot over lush jasmine-ylang and enveloping benzoin-sandalwood, evolving into a lingering, skin-hugging glow in a carefree, sun-drenched atmosphere.
It opens with an electrifying, juicy rush of clementine and bergamot—a citrus-fruity medley that's bright, awakening, and boldly sunny with a blackcurrant-green edge. The heart unfolds with jasmine sambac and ylang-ylang, creating a sophisticated, creamy-floral accord that's dense, tropical, and elegantly balanced. It dries down to a luxurious, lingering trail of sandalwood, benzoin, and musks—woody, powdery, and subtly leathery—forming an enduring, skin-hugging aura that's magnetic, warm, and endlessly captivating.

Frequently hailed as a Chevallier classic—floral-dominant, sunny-fruity, and strikingly approachable—Tel Aviv is described as blending juicy clementine-bergamot opening, jasmine-ylang heart, and benzoin-sandalwood base (often praised as a "Mediterranean beach glow," radiant yet relaxed, with addictive floral subtlety and smooth evolution). It's a versatile year-round staple (ideal for spring/summer or daytime wear) that draws compliments for its moderate projection, uplifting aura, and niche originality. Performance is solid for an EDP: 7-9+ hours longevity (evolves gracefully, intimate to noticeable on skin but good on clothes), moderate projection (clean sillage with fruity-floral trail), and reliable staying power—transitioning from tangy-citrus vibrancy to a lingering powdery-woody finish. Fragrance lovers praise its high-quality composition, unique citrus-floral fusion, and confident wearability, though some note its soft sweetness—perfect for those seeking bold yet easy sunny-floral scents.
