The story behind the bottle.
Play in the City for Her by Givenchy was launched in 2013 as a fragrance that captures the vibrant energy of urban life. The composition opens with red berries and licorice, creating an immediate sense of sweetness and freshness. At its heart, tiare flower and iris add a delicate floral touch, while vanilla, musk, and sandalwood form a warm and powdery base. This fragrance embodies the playful yet sophisticated spirit that Givenchy has become known for, blending French elegance with modern flair.
This fragrance is best applied in light layers to allow its various notes to unfold gradually. The fruity top notes are fleeting, so a few sprays will keep the sweet and powdery base notes close to your skin throughout the day.
