Givenchy Les Parfums Mythiques - Insense is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2007, created by Fabrice Pellegrin and Daniel Molière. Les Parfums Mythiques - Insense opens with Blackcurrant and Basil, settles into a heart of Green Notes and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Pine, and Canadian Fir Balsam. Givenchy's Les Parfums Mythiques - Insense carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly polarising scent; Givenchy's Insensé is either a misunderstood gem or a perplexing floral-green oddity. It's too unique for the masses, but if you're after something truly different, this might just be your unloved masterpiece.

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.

About

Insensé opens with a sharp, vibrant burst of blackcurrant and fresh basil, giving it an immediate green and slightly fruity character. As it settles, a prominent magnolia heart unfolds, blending seamlessly with additional green notes to create an unusual floral-woody core. The base grounds everything with a distinct conifer blend of pine and fir resin, alongside dry cedar, solidifying its unique, slightly melancholic forest vibe.
