Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Very Irrésistible pour Homme EDT
A contemporary men's fragrance that delivers a zesty spice kick with a refined finish, ideal for those seeking an assertive yet sophisticated scent.
Statement
Our Verdict - 236 Givenchy Very Irresistible for Men EDP
Keeps the mint-grapefruit opening and sesame heart of Very Irresistible for Men, but swaps the original's ginger and vanilla for a coffee-hazelnut turn, landing warmer and more gourmand than the sleek original.
