The story behind the bottle.
Monsieur de Givenchy Haute Concentration by Givenchy is a composition that seamlessly blends the fresh, zesty notes of citrus with the earthy warmth of patchouli and oakmoss. Created by perfumer Francis Fabron in the 1980s, this fragrance opens with a burst of lemon and pepper, giving way to a heart of lavender and sage. The base of patchouli, oakmoss, sandalwood, musk, and cedar provides an earthy foundation that grounds the lively top notes.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points; the citrus top notes will brighten initially but give way to the deeper, earthier base notes over time. This fragrance is best worn during cooler months when its warmth feels more comforting.
