The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2009, Harvest 2008 Very Irresistible Rosa Damascena by Givenchy is a Floral fragrance that marries the delicate essence of Rosa Damascena with anis and soft spicy notes. The composition opens with a bright burst of rose, which then gives way to subtle hints of anise and spices, creating a harmonious blend that's both warm and inviting. The base of patchouli and woody accords adds depth and longevity, ensuring that this scent remains memorable throughout the day.

How to wear it

This fragrance blossoms close to the skin, so apply it lightly but ensure it touches pulse points. The top note of Rosa Damascena fades within two hours, but the base notes carry through, making it ideal for evening wear.
