Very Irresistible

by Dominique Ropion , Carlos Benaïm , Sophie Labbé

Givenchy Very Irresistible is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003, created by Dominique Ropion, Carlos Benaïm, and Sophie Labbé. Very Irresistible opens with Star Anise, Lemon Verbena, and Redcurrant Leaf, settles into a heart of Rose, Magnolia, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Taif Rose, Patchouli, Musk, and Vanilla. Givenchy's Very Irresistible carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

Givenchy Very Irresistible is a beloved icon that divides opinion. Some adore its sparkling, modern rose, calling it a 'man killer' and a 'sexy elegant floral bomb' with amazing performance. Others find it 'too strong' or 'too perfumey,' even labelling it a 'sweet synthetic rose writ large.' Reaching for a vintage bottle seems to be the consensus for those chasing the original magic.

About

Imagine a vibrant rose garden, dewy with the morning light. Very Irresistible opens with a sharp, invigorating burst of star anise and lemon verbena, giving way to a heart bursting with a chorus of roses, peony, and magnolia. It's a fresh, yet spicy floral with a creamy, almost powdery depth in the drydown, where hints of musk and vanilla temper the Taif rose and patchouli.
