Givenchy Chypre Caresse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Nathalie Lorson. Chypre Caresse opens with Lemon, settles into a heart of Angelica and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Patchouli. Givenchy's Chypre Caresse carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This 'charming freshness' is a beautiful, albeit short-lived, citrus white floral that draws divided opinion on its value for money. If you can get past the price and performance issues, it's a tender, subtle gem.

Its fresh and clean citrus-floral profile makes it ideal for casual wear and the office, where its subtle projection won't overwhelm. While it smells 'expensive', the generally reported weak longevity might let it down for longer events like dates or formal occasions, though it would be lovely for a shorter, intimate setting.

About

Chypre Caresse opens with a bright burst of lemon, sparkling and fresh, far from sharp. This invigorating citrus harmonises beautifully with the delicate sweetness of white florals, primarily jasmine, creating an alluring, clean aura. As it settles, a soft, musky patchouli emerges, grounding the lively opening with a hint of warmth without ever becoming heavy or earthy. Angelica adds a subtle aromatic nuance, making it feel effortlessly refined.
