Scent Description:

GIVENCHY L'interdit EDT, famously designed for Audrey Hepburn. It opens with airy, sparkling aldehydes and spices, leading into a sophisticated heart of powdery iris, rose, and jasmine. This original version is defined by its "makeup-powder" texture and a dry, woody base of sandalwood and vetiver. Frequently compared to Chanel No. 5, but it is often described as its warmer, more "approachable" cousin.
