Composition of the fragrance
The composition of the fragrance is dominated by three main components. The resinous notes you notice first are of hyacinth, and they remain in the foreground until they merge with Moroccan iris root. Its delicate notes are replaced with Indonesian patchouli, with its woody and very sensual fragrance.
Story of the fragrance
The Givenchy III perfume comes in a bottle that has been updated for 2022. The composition of the fragrance remains the same, but the new bottle design perfectly interprets the luxury associated with Givenchy’s fashion creations. A clean style was Hubert de Givenchy’s favourite, and this bottle reflects this instantly.
