Gap Family of Scents is Expanding: Individuals & G7 for Men Collections {New Perfumes - Colognes}
The Individuals collection is conceived as a range of unisex scents and includes: The Original, The Natural, The Visionary, and The Lover. They echo the concept found in a set of two photo albums popularized by Gap that depict a long gallery of strong individuals. The perfumes retail for $35 each.
According to the ad copy,
- the ORIGINAL--this is your moment.
The scent of self-invention.
Soulful black leather mixes unconventionally with juicy plum and earthy cedarwood. - the ARTIST--say something new.
The scent of creative inspiration. Soft violet harmoniously blends with the warmth of amber and musk. - the VISIONARY--follow your imagination.
The scent of innovation and intrigue. Cool bluegrass majestically contrasts with sun-dried geranium and frosted fennel. - the NATURAL--an individual who just is.
The scent of harmony and comfort. Crisp bergamote with a twist of time peacefully fuses with the essence of thyme and vetiver. - the LOVER--let passion rule.
The scent of passion and desire. Velvety apricot skin fuses with shimmering mint leaf and sexy patchouli.
The G7 for Men line includes Bold, Mixed, Spiked, which are described as "Three modern scents formulated by top perfumers inspired by the everyday guy--sexy, confident, clean." They retail for $26 each.
According to the ad copy,
- Mixed, an aromatic tonic boasting a stirred fusion of citrus peels, cardamom and musky woods.
- Bold, an aromatic, energized tonic of fresh air, cool spearmint and dried woods.
- Spiked, an aromatic spark of juniper berry, ginger root and deep amber balsam.

Tried the Individuals last week and I have to say they aren't bad at all. I would even say they are better than the boring Banana Republic collection (another Gap Inc/InterParfums project). I almost bought Lover wich is a nice unpatchouli-like patchouli if you get what I mean. As for Natural, it had a striking resamblance to Jo Malone's flagship scent Lime Basil & Mandarin but with a better lasting power.
The G7 collection was much more "generic-woody-ozonic-teenage -boy" stuff.
Past Gap scents I liked: Dream (but gives me a headache), OM (CKBe but better) and GAP Sueded Musk oil.
