For the next in our 'Ask the Expert' series we turned to 'Best Niche Fragrance' winner of the year 2020, Nick Steward Founder and Creator of Gallivant perfumes.
We have been selling Gallivant fragrances for some time now and love the story behind each one, the passion and professionalism that defines Nick and his approach to what is effectively a dark and mysterious industry.

The perfume I’ve worn most this summer. Inspired by the colours of southern California, this is a neon floral perfume, with tuberoses from Mexico, and a narcissus flower grown especially for us in central France. Imagine yourself somewhere hot, and glamorous, a cocktail in hand, and a cooling breeze from the Pacific. This is definitely a feel-good fragrance - and winner of “Best Niche Fragrance of 2020” at a global beauty awards.
Our Berlin perfume is inspired by the nature and lakes on the edge of the German capital. Fresh zesty notes are married with elegant green and woody notes - and the famously smoky vetiver (a grass grown on Haiti.) Perfect for the transition from summer into autumn …
