Van Gils Basic Instinct

The allure of a man’s image largely depends on its unseen component — the fragrance, which must match the character of its wearer. Van Gils Basic Instinct niche eau de toilette is a fantastic find for a determined, vibrant individual. It belongs to the musk fragrance category and possesses a very multifaceted scent that captivates from the very first seconds.

The composition opens with an intoxicating combination of nutmeg and bergamot, the slight bitterness of which is delicately edged with the playful sweetness of pineapple, hints of citrus, floral-melon splendor, and the freshness of cucumber. At the heart of the melody reigns orange blossom, whose fragrance merges with the extravagant chords of rose, the sunny echoes of jasmine, and the shy breezes of violet. At the very peak of the scent, truly masculine notes flourish — noble wood, exquisitely combined with the coolness of oakmoss, smoky vetiver, drowning in the fairy-tale intonations of amber, and the unparalleled patchouli, forming a bright, intoxicating duo with rum and creating an unforgettable trail.
