Gambler

Gambler was Jovan's answer to the aromatic and herbal leather scents that had become fashionable for men in the early 1980s. Think sour lemon introducing mugwort juxtaposed with cinnamon, muddled with a sharp galbanum, vague pine, and florals. Then it's all pinned down with a mossy leather and castoreum accord. It's quite similar to others of that age, Yatagan, Devin, Jil Sander Man, et al—but with a tighter budget. One would argue it's redundant when considering the aforementioned classics, but its fun to have around as another example of how Jovan was no slouch when it came to reliable, affordable fragrances for the masses.

A nice Aromatic Herbal mixture here. It does sort of reminds me of a more masculine version of Kiehls Original Musk to some degree. Smells fantastic. The Oakmoss reminds me of Bijan Men vintage scent.

Fragrantica, both Gambler for men and Lady for women were introduced by Jovan in the same year and the same campaign. Both were named for popular songs sung by Kenny Rogers. So, why isn't Lady listed? Please add it. Thanks!
