The Story

Launched in 2005, Very Irresistible Eau de Parfum by Givenchy is a floral fragrance that balances freshness and warmth with its distinctive blend of star anise, pear, and green apple. The heart features a distinctive liv Tyler rose alongside peony and magnolia, while the base notes of vanilla and patchouli create a soft, powdery finish. This composition was crafted by Dominique Ropion, Sophie Labbé, and Carlos Benaïm, capturing the essence of French elegance with a modern twist.

Application Tips

One spritz on each wrist is enough — this fragrance blooms quickly but retains its warmth throughout the day. The star anise note fades within two hours, so reapply if you want to maintain that initial freshness.
