About
Very Irresistible Givenchy L’Intense by Givenchy is a Chypre Floral fragrance for women. Very Irresistible Givenchy L’Intense was launched in 2011. Top note is Plum; middle note is Rose; base notes are Patchouli and Musk. Very Irresistible Givenchy L'Intense is more intensive, more dangerous, edgier and more narcotic than the original - absolutely screaming rock and roll! The whole idea fits the winter 2010/11 Givenchy collection by Ricardo Tisci as well as the general tendencies of the house towards the rock chic fashion elements.Very Irresistible Givenchy L'Intense is for sexy, charismatic, edgy and full of confidence modern women. The composition developed by IFF perfumers combines the tenderness and strength of musky - floral – chypre character with notes of purple plum, Turkish rose, patchouli and white musk. The fragrant flower bouquet is bestowed with bitterness and strength.Lovely actress Liv Tyler is once again chosen to be the face of the campaign in order to illustrate the growth and maturation of a girl into a woman. The previous Very Irresistible campaigns, where Liv is also shown, are youthful, fun and full of energy, while the two new black and white posters illustrate a darker and more serious side of women. Liv is dressed in Givenchy ready-to-wear autumn 2010 collection, which includes leather pants and studded bracelets. The campaign was shot by the photographer Jean-Baptiste Mondino.Very Irresistible Givenchy L'Intense comes in the signature twisted Irresistible line bottle. The bottle is painted in muted shades ranging from black to purple, decorated with silver abstract rose motif that resembles a tattoo. The perfume liquid is pink, radiating enigmatic and inaccessible female aura.The perfume is presented to the market in March 2011 as 30, 50 and 75 ml EDP. Givenchy also launches a necklace with a pendant where you can put a small bottle of the perfume.
