Van Gils

Explore 27 Van Gils fragrances — notes, longevity, sillage and community ratings, matched to how you want to smell. The house dates from 1978, founded by Miel van Gils.

The range is built around woody, citrus and aromatic accords. Fresh spicy and warm spicy notes turn up alongside them, with fruity touches appearing throughout the collection. Materials such as bergamot, musk, patchouli and vanilla are used repeatedly across the different releases.

The centre of the catalogue is occupied by masculine compositions that balance crisp citrus openings with deeper wood and earth. Classic sits among these releases, representing the kind of profile that defines the house's output.
