Description

Founded in 1952 by Hubert de Givenchy, the house first captured the spirit of the ‘forbidden’ with L’Interdit in 1957, a fragrance originally dedicated to Audrey Hepburn. This legacy was reborn in 2020 with the EDP Intense, a darker, more mysterious chapter in the brand’s storied olfactory history.

What does Givenchy L’Interdit EDP Intense smell like?

As an Eau de Parfum Intense, this fragrance is a sophisticated Amber Floral composition that pushes the boundaries of the original scent. It is a nocturnal masterpiece, characterized by its deep, velvety textures and a long-lasting, magnetic trail.

  • Top Notes: The scent begins with a bold and spicy provocation of black pepper, creating an immediate, tingling intensity that signals a departure from the ordinary.
  • Middle Notes: The heart reveals a luminous yet shadowy bouquet where orange blossom and narcotic tuberose are unexpectedly transformed by the roasted, nutty facets of black sesame.
  • Base Notes: A profound foundation of leathery Madagascan vanilla and earthy patchouli provides a creamy, dark depth, while woody vetiver ensures a hauntingly elegant finish.
