Scent Story
Givenchy III begins with brightness—bergamot, mandarin and a green galbanum accord smoothed by aldehydes and a touch of peach. A heart of rich florals—hyacinth, jasmine, narcissus, and rose—deepens the scent, with delicate undertones of orris root and lily-of-the-valley adding powdery elegance. The base reveals a warm blend of woods, oakmoss, amber and patchouli, with resinous myrrh and soft sandalwood finishing in a lingering, elegant trail.

Works beautifully for formal settings, sophisticated outings, or when you dress in tailored or vintage-inspired pieces. Goes well with muted colors, lace, tweed, and silk.
