L'Interdit is Givenchy's 2018 relaunch of their 1957 classic, originally created as a gift from Hubert de Givenchy to Audrey Hepburn. This modern interpretation reimagines the original while maintaining its sophisticated DNA, making it a contemporary take on a fragrance icon.

The EDP opens with bright bergamot and pear, immediately fruity and fresh. The heart reveals a creamy white floral trio of jasmine sambac, orange blossom, and tuberose that drives the composition, lending the fragrance its floral-oriental character. The base settles into a warm, slightly woody finish with ambroxan, patchouli, vanilla, and vetvetiver creating depth and longevity without heaviness.

L'Interdit suits anyone drawn to classic white florals with modern refinement. It works equally well for daily wear and evening occasions, though it leans slightly more formal. The balance of fruit and florals keeps it fresh while the warm base prevents it from feeling thin. If you're exploring The Homesteader, The Sensualist, and The Tactician, L'Interdit fits cleanly within this sensibility.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Bergamot
Bergamot
A sun-ripened Italian citrus with a brightness that goes beyond lemon, simultaneously tart, floral, and slightly spicy. It's the defining note of Earl Grey tea and the backbone of countless fresh colognes. Perfumers love it as an opener because it lifts the entire composition without overpowering what follows.
Pear
Pear
Gentle, watery, and slightly floral, pear is one of fragrance's most delicate fruit notes, with a clean sweetness that is closer to flowers than to heavy tropical fruits. It adds a soft, luminous freshness to compositions and pairs naturally with rose, iris, and light musks. Often the note that makes a fragrance feel effortlessly elegant.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Jasmine Sambac
Jasmine Sambac
The smaller-flowered Asian variety of jasmine used to scent traditional jasmine tea, with a sweeter, more honeyed, and slightly fruity character compared to Jasminum grandiflorum. Jasmine sambac has a lighter, more transparent quality with a tea-like freshness alongside its floral richness. It is the defining jasmine of South and Southeast Asian perfumery.
Orange Blossom
Orange Blossom
Sweeter and more honeyed than neroli (both come from the same tree), orange blossom is a floral note with a warm, almost edible quality. It floats between citrus and floral families, adding richness without weight. A signature note of classic Mediterranean and Middle Eastern perfumery.
Tuberose
Tuberose
One of the most intensely floral natural ingredients in existence, rich, creamy, and almost narcotic in its sweetness. Tuberose is polarizing by design: it's meant to be enveloping, not background. It has rubbery, vanilla-like facets that make it feel both sensual and slightly retro.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Ambroxan
Ambroxan
The molecule responsible for the warm, skin-amplifying quality of many modern fragrances, ambroxan (Ambrox) is a synthetic compound derived from ambergris that creates an almost invisible warmth. It doesn't smell strongly on its own but makes everything around it feel richer, closer, and more like skin. The secret weapon of countless contemporary bestsellers.
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Warm, sweet, and universally appealing, vanilla is to fragrance what salt is to cooking. Real vanilla is complex and slightly smoky, though most perfumery vanilla is synthetic and reads as clean, sweet, and creamy. It slows the evaporation of other notes and is the reason certain fragrances feel like a second skin.
Vetiver
Vetiver
Earthy, smoky, and complex, vetiver root is extracted from a grass native to India and has a scent that is simultaneously rooty, woody, and slightly lemony. It's one of perfumery's great base notes: tenacious, unisex, and endlessly adaptable. A fragrance built around vetiver feels grounded and deeply confident.
