Our Verdict

L'Interdit Rouge by Givenchy and Awaan by Lattafa both offer sweet white floral and warm spicy accords, yet they diverge significantly in their olfactory profiles. L'Interdit Rouge is a premium feminine scent that exudes a seductive blend of creamy white florals, cacao, and spices, making it ideal for evening wear. Awaan, on the other hand, is a unisex fragrance at a mid-price tier, characterized by its polarizing sweet, bubblegum-like notes mixed with caramelized citrus and the distinct presence of patchouli and musk. While L'Interdit Rouge is confident and alluring, Awaan is bold and adventurous. Choose based on your preference for classic allure versus daring uniqueness.

Our Verdict - Awaan EDP
Awaan is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Many rave about its sweet, bubblegum-like white florals and caramelised citrus, while others find the patchouli and musk overwhelming, even 'pickled'. Best buckle up and try before you buy.
