Naples

Gallivant Naples is, as of early 2022, the most recent release from the house, which has prominent notes of incense and sea salt, along with pink pepper, ginger, bergamot, patchouli, and vetiver. It’s resinous and salty first and foremost, with spicy and earthy accents in the background. It’s fresh yet deep, inviting but a bit mysterious, and altogether a well-rounded, versatile, year-round-friendly type of fragrance, conjuring a coastal city with ancient history that nonetheless feels full of life. It straddles the line between what is at sea and above ground, and what lies beneath, in the buildings, underground; it has roots, but flies a bit. Along with Berlin, it’s my favorite of the house to date, and I’m happy to have a bottle. Lastly, I find it to be among the better-performing fragrances in the line. Naples is available in both the traditional 30ml sizing for $95 as well as the new 100ml size for $100ml, and is sold at great boutiques like Perfumology, where I bought mine. There’s also an updated discovery set, Nomad Set 2022, that includes samples of Naples and other Gallivant fragrances. 8 out of 10

This scent is very sweet, smooth, a little floral, and a little amber. On my skin, the opening had a bit of that orange, but that faded fast. It quickly became sweet and some beautiful incense. I mostly smell incense, amber, and patchouli. This was not fresh, salty, or oceany like other reviews had said. This is just like walking into your local hippie shop; a lot of incense, and the place feels so warm and welcoming. This is so sweet and smooth I can just bathe in this beautiful cloud. 10/10 so great.

I think this is really nice. It opens bright and soapy with an undertone of incense. It turns into a mid that reminds me of AdG Profumo. It's less aquatic and has a backbone of warm spice so it's different enough, but the sea notes/olibanum/patchouli combo will remind you of that profumo feel. Then it dries to a woody, smoky, and spicy scent that's cozy and enjoyable. I think it's my favorite of the line. Will update as I test further.

I got a sample from Luckyscent, this fragrance is interesting. I'm only a couple hours in, and the opening is beautiful. I get the aquatic notes with green notes then it goes into church incense, like a sunday morning walk by the Mediterranean to church. I will dab this on one hand and Zoologist Squid on the other to see if there is any similarities. Edit: This is reminding me a little of a fresh version Amouage Epic Man.

I love this. I wear it to bed. It reminds me of one of my all time favourites sadly no longer available, Mon Numero 10. It has a similar rich old leather and wood scent with incense but Naples has lighter fresher notes too. I find it a rich and elegant night time scent.
