Givenchy MMW is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Olivier Cresp. MMW opens with Cardamom, settles into a heart of Palo Santo, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, Ambroxan, and Iso E Super. Givenchy's MMW carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

MMW is a divisive one. Fans adore its clean, sophisticated woodiness, hailing it as a versatile signature scent. Yet, a strong contingent laments its poor performance, calling it fleeting and overpriced. It's a gorgeous skin scent for those who don't mind reapplying, but a 'ghost in a bottle' for others.

Its subtle projection and clean woody profile make it perfect for office wear, where strong scents are often unwelcome. While elegant, its lack of significant projection makes it less ideal for formal events or dates where you might want to make more of a statement; it's more of an intimate skin scent. It's a great casual reach for its versatility, but its warm, woody nature isn't suited for sport.

About

Imagine a sophisticated whisper of spiced wood. MMW opens with a warm, subtly spiced cardamom, quickly transitioning into the creamy, almost milky heart of palo santo. This serene woodiness is grounded by a dry, earthy vetiver and cedar, while the modern hum of Iso E Super and ambroxan provide a musky, clean finish. It's an elegant, close-wearing aura of refined woods.
