Like Father Like Son El Ganso, that first saw the light of day in 2023, is officially considered a masculine fragrance, rooted in the wood, fruit, citrus, and aromatic families. In eau de toilette — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
Made in Spain, backed by a long and proud tradition. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The olfactory structure of Like Father Like Son unfolds as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of El Ganso comes through in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette sets the depth and body this composition needs.
The profile is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
As soon as the fragrance opens you catch sparkling citrus first notes: Ginger, Grapefruit and Lemon.
In the central layer you meet Mint, Orange blossom and Pear keeping a pure aromatic direction. At the foundation the structure settles through Ambergris, Sandalwood and Vetiver, shaping a deep woody trail.
At the note-group layer the profile is anchored in Spicy, Citrus, Aromatic and Whiteflower. It also reaches into Fruit, Ambery and Wood. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to Aromatic, Citrus, Fruit and Wood.
Taken together Like Father Like Son reads as a cohesive composition — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best understood on skin.
