Which Should You Buy?
Givenchy Play Intense is a cult classic that vanished too soon, leaving a trail of devoted fans and a fierce aftermarket for this coffee and tonka masterpiece. It's truly a love-it-or-mourn-it scent.
Follows Givenchy Play Intense's amber-fougere formula closely, though the tonka-labdanum base is thinner and less richly resinous than the original's warm signature.
