Givenchy 2022 EDP
Équivoque
Givenchy Équivoque is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by François Demachy. Équivoque opens with Cardamom, and settles into a heart of Cedar and Guaiac Wood. Givenchy's Équivoque carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.
This isn't for everyone, and good riddance. Équivoque is a divisive, opinionated take on oud and cardamom, offering a dry, serious intensity that some find intoxicatingly powerful and others, frankly, just chemical. Prepare for a love-it-or-hate-it encounter.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Best Occasions
Its potent oud and strong projection make it less suitable for a typical office environment or casual wear where subtlety is preferred. However, its serious, elegant character and perceived 'power' elevate it for formal events and even sophisticated date nights, where its bold nature can shine.
