Irrésistible Givenchy Eau de Toilette by Givenchy
Floral Woody Musk
Anne Filipo, Dominique Ropion, Fanny Bal
The house of Givenchy launched the original Very Irresistible line in 2003. It was primarily a rose fragrance, with additional florals and spices at the top. A spicy bold rose that still manages to be garden-fresh and transparent. The bottle is lean, tall and hot pink.
Almost twenty years later, Givenchy introduces Irresistible EDP, musky pear with roses. The branding and scent itself are quite a departure from Very Irresistible. The crisp rose is there but accompanied by fruity and musky accords. The presentation is softer, and cleaner and so is the aroma itself. I was not wowed by the perfume from 2003 but a little goes a long way, the Irresistible of today is my jam.
While I would call the EDP a musky pear, the EDT is a musky rose. It is less sweet hence more neutral. It lasts the whole day on clothing especially. I think that both are excellent, it depends on what you prefer. The EDT is more work appropriate if you want to appear serious and responsible as opposed to the cheerful EDP. You can layer them for sure, I like the versatility.
