Basic Instinct Outdoor is a woody-aromatic eau de toilette for men from Van Gils, released in 2022, a fresh, green take on Basic Instinct. Absinthe, bergamot, black pepper and forest notes give a crisp, green opening, a heart of cedar, patchouli and sage adds an earthy, aromatic depth, and a base of amber, crystal moss, tonka bean and vetiver leaves a smooth, woody trail.
