Givenchy L'Interdit Burning Neroli is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. L'Interdit Burning Neroli opens with Neroli, settles into a heart of Patchouli, and dries down to a base of Vetiver. Givenchy's L'Interdit Burning Neroli carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This L'Interdit flanker is divisive. Some find it a fresh, bolder take on the original, with a beautiful neroli opening and an earthy, woody dry-down. Others are underwhelmed, calling it generic, or even 'stale' or 'granddad-like'.

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

L'Interdit Burning Neroli ignites with a fierce, bright burst of neroli, offering a citrusy yet floral opening that's both fresh and vibrant. This initial spark quickly deepens as earthy patchouli emerges, grounding the composition with its intense, slightly mysterious character. The journey concludes with a dry, woody vetiver base, adding a sophisticated and enduring foundation that balances the initial floral sweetness with an elegant, almost smoky depth.
