Van Gils launched Bow Tie in 2019 — and it was a brilliant move. A masculine fragrance belonging to the spicy and wood families. In eau de toilette — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
The home of this fragrance is the Netherlands. Bow Tie Van Gils — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Bow Tie is shaped as a cohesive olfactory arc, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The style of Van Gils comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
The profile is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
In the top tier you detect radiant lemon-bergamot opening notes: Bergamot and Cypress. Exactly these 2 notes build sunny vitality that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
At the core of development you sense Cardamom, Cinnamon, Clove and Nutmeg carrying a spicy-aromatic direction. At drydown level the composition is fixed through Patchouli, Vanilla and musk, extending a warm vetiver trail.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Wood, Spicy and Gourmet. It also reaches into Musk. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Spicy and Wood.
Taken together Bow Tie holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best understood on skin.
