If this is what Los Angeles smells like...

Then I don't want to go there. This was a disappointment, even though I was expecting it due to the ratings on Parfumo (6.1 at the time of this review).

Very strong, fresh, sharp menthol-like, camphorous beginning with some sickeningly sweet pineapple nectar. Smelled like pineapple-flavored medicinal product that you give to a kid who hates to take medicine. Eucalyptus and pineapple are the two main notes at the top. It starts morphing into florals accompanied by sickly sweet fruitiness from the top (thankfully the eucalyptus has slipped away). Tuberose is the strongest here with an animalic, bubblegum facet that is not my favorite thing. Paired with the pineapple and the narcissus, you get this slightly tropical feeling to the fragrance. Drydown is very candle-like synthetic, like one of those candles you'd get at Marshall or TJMax that says it smells like woods (without any details). There's some spiciness due to the juniper, but other than that it's all woods.

With subpar performance on my skin and an unusual scent that's not my cup of tea, this is definitely a nope. I suggest you try it out before blind-buying as this is not blind-buy safe. I'm starting to think Gallivant is not a house for me. Oh well, more savings to my wallet!

I've never been to New York before... and not in LA either

I have had the pleasure of testing the new Los Angeles from Gallivant in advance. Dear Nick (founder of the company) has already sent a few samples in advance. The whole customer service of this company is great! This must also be mentioned :)

Now for the fragrance:
LA starts fresh - great for the midsummer we're experiencing right now. I guess that's where eucalyptus makes the difference. After a few minutes a strong tuberose gum note is added. Well, tuberose and I are at war. This nasty plant always gives me a headache. But wait a minute! I smell it very strong, but absolutely zero headache! Not even the slightest hammering! Perhaps this is due to the fact that the company makes great efforts to process only very high-quality fragrances.
After the next few minutes I find myself on the west coast. A stiff breeze blows around my nose. So also an aquatic note. I also don't like anything else and mostly hits my stomach, but also here.... no complaints :)
Slowly and leisurely the sea mist fades again and also the chewing gum has almost lost its taste. Towards the end LA becomes creamy/woody, a slight sweetness remains.

For me this is something new: Tuberose in a sea salad... quite nice, but unfortunately not for me because of the main actors. But if you like tuberoses, you should definitely try them!
