Givenchy Gentleman Boisee opens with Pepper, Coriander and Geranium; a heart of Orris, Cedar and Cocoa; drying down to Sandalwood and Patchouli, from notes Givenchy Beauty Official publishes. Those notes read as spicy, floral, sweet, woody, the coarse families Givenchy Beauty Official cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

The genuine Givenchy Gentleman Boisee runs $52.95 at FragranceShop.com as of this page's last update, though retailers set their own prices and change them; the "smells-like" alternatives start around $12.95.

We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to Gentleman Boisee by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke Gentleman Boisee, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.

Givenchy Gentleman Boisee is listed as a men's fragrance by the retailer. That's a marketing label, not a rule: fragrance has no gender, and plenty of "men's" scents are worn by anyone. We show how it's sold and leave the wearing to you.

Unbranded Givenchy Gentleman Boisee is the alternative we list first for Gentleman Boisee, ranked on shared cited accords then price, at $12.95 against $52.95 for the genuine bottle. Most alternative houses publish no scent profile of their own, so for those we show the original's cited accords rather than claim an independently verified match. It's meant to evoke Gentleman Boisee, not replicate it, so we link the real bottle first and let you judge for yourself.
