Givenchy L'Interdit Edition Couture is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Dominique Ropion, Anne Flipo, and Fanny Bal. L'Interdit Edition Couture opens with Bergamot and Pear, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Ambroxan. Givenchy's L'Interdit Edition Couture carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This limited edition flanker is a gorgeous take on L'Interdit, often described as a sweeter, more refined version that's perfect for making a sophisticated statement. It's a crowd-pleaser that exudes elegance and draws compliments. While some found it very similar to Elie Saab Le Parfum, most agree it's a stand-out.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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 Edition Couture opens with a juicy, bright burst of pear and bergamot, quickly softening into a rich heart of white florals. Tuberose, jasmine and orange blossom create an intoxicating, elegant bouquet with a subtle creamy sweetness. The base deepens into a warm, inviting blend of vanilla, earthy patchouli, vetiver, and a hint of modern ambroxan, leaving a long-lasting, alluring trail that's both sophisticated and sensual.
