The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2007, Les Parfums Mythiques Insense by Givenchy is an aromatic fougère fragrance that blends French elegance with a fresh and invigorating edge. The composition opens with the vibrancy of black currant and basil, leading into a heart of magnolia and green notes. The base features balsam fir, pine tree needles, and cedar, creating a woody and coniferous foundation. This fragrance is a proof of Givenchy's legacy of combining sophisticated style with modern freshness.
Apply this fragrance in light layers — the black currant and basil opening is vivid but fleeting. The woody base notes emerge after an hour, so allow time for it to develop fully on your skin.
