Description
Established in 1952 by Hubert de Givenchy, the Maison has long been a bastion of aristocratic elegance and avant-garde daring. L’Interdit Rouge, launched in 2021, marks a fiery new chapter in the legacy of the original 1957 fragrance created for Audrey Hepburn, evolving its classic floral signature into a carnal, smoldering obsession.
What does Givenchy L’Interdit Rouge EDP smell like?
Presented as an Eau de Parfum, L’Interdit Rouge is a sophisticated Amber Floral composition that pushes the boundaries of the iconic ‘underground flower.’ It is a fragrance of high tension and magnetic intensity, balancing luminous white petals with a dark, incandescent heat.
- Top Notes: The scent ignites with a provocative burst of Sicilian blood orange, sharpened by the electric, tingling spice of fresh ginger for a vibrant and intoxicating opening.
- Middle Notes: A narcotic bouquet of opulent tuberose and jasmine sambac is set ablaze by the smoky, aromatic nuances of red pimento leaf, creating a heart that feels both velvet-soft and dangerously warm.
- Base Notes: A deep, addictive trail of creamy sandalwood and earthy patchouli is anchored by the smoky, woody undertones of vetiver, leaving a lingering impression of smoldering sophistication.
