Givenchy Ange Ou Demon Le Secret Edition Bal d'Or is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Ange Ou Demon Le Secret Edition Bal d'Or opens with Citrus, Cranberry, and Tea, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Peony, and Hedione, and dries down to a base of Musk and Patchouli. Givenchy's Ange Ou Demon Le Secret Edition Bal d'Or carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A divisive scent, Bal d'Or swings between cherished elegance and an almost intrusive patchouli punch. It's a 'love it or leave it' affair, a bolder, spicier spin on the classic Le Secret, often sparking debate among fans of the original.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Built on fresh, floral and citrus - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its moderate sillage and good longevity, coupled with its elegant floral and fresh accords, make it versatile for most non-sporting occasions. While some find it too intense, many appreciate its 'expensive' feel for formal settings and dates, though its strength might be a bit much for a quiet office.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

This 'Ange Ou Demon' opens with a sparkling burst of fresh citrus and tart cranberry, quickly joined by the delicate, green nuance of tea. The heart blossoms with elegant jasmine and soft peony, while a prominent, earthy patchouli emerges, grounded by a subtle musk. Expect a vibrant, floral-fruity start that deepens into a more sophisticated, patchouli-driven drydown.
