  I’ve always been queasy about the concept of flankers. I start thinking, ‘another copy, seriously?’ and tell myself I won’t fall for it, that it’ll be the same. But then I shut my mouth. This happened with L’Interdit Millésime. What a punishment! I went into a perfumery a while ago to try things and there he was, among the new releases. Well… I couldn’t refuse. They gave me a blotter, I smelled it and was surprised, but that was it; I left and put it in my bag. Why? To torture me, because afterwards I couldn’t stop smelling it. L’Interdit by Givenchy has several derivatives; I own the first two (EDP and EDT) and I adore them. With the Intense it didn’t work out for me, unfortunately, because its excessive vanilla plus the sesame are too much for my skin. And this latest one? I found it wonderful. Why? Because it hits a middle ground between the EDP and the EDT, but differentiates itself enough so that owning all three isn’t redundant. The opening is majestic: citrus and ginger. Please, that ginger! Almond-like, slightly spicy (like the opening of Twilly). Minutes pass and the citrus fades, but the ginger lingers, accompanying the white flowers that emerge, wonderful. Unlike the other versions, here in addition to the neroli (which remain the protagonists) there is orange blossom, which with its citrus touch alongside the ginger make a perfect mixture. According to Fragrantica it has almond milk, vetiver, musk and patchouli, but honestly what I perceive are white flowers with that almond-like citrus note that lingers until the end, and in the little time I’ve used it, I can say it has excellent longevity, definitely more than 7 hours. In my opinion, it’s the most floral and least sweet of all flankers, absolutely versatile, sparkling and super elegant, noticeable without being overwhelming. Don’t prejudge as I did and dare to try it. For everyone who wasn’t satisfied with the previous ones, pop into a perfumery and try it; after all, you won’t lose anything.

  Flankers always put me on my guard; I think, ‘again, really?’ At first I tell myself I won’t fall for it, that it’ll be the same, but then I shut my mouth. This happened with L’Interdit Millésime. What a punishment!! I went into a perfumery to try something and there he was, among the new releases. I couldn’t refuse; they gave me a blotter, I was surprised, and I put it in my bag. Why?

Almond-like, spicy (like the opening of Twilly). The citrus fades, but the ginger lingers, accompanying wonderful white flowers. Here, in addition to the starry neroli, there is orange blossom, which with its citrus touch and the ginger create a perfect blend. According to Fragrantica it has almond milk, vetiver, musk and patchouli, but I only perceive white flowers with that almond-like citrus note that lasts until the end. Definitely more than 7 hours. It’s the most floral and least sweet flanker, versatile, sparkling and elegant, noticeable without being overwhelming. Don’t prejudge as I did; dare to try it. For those who weren’t satisfied with the previous ones, pop into a perfumery, give it a sniff; you won’t lose anything.

  For me, it’s almost perfect; the neroli, a note I adore, arrives to relax and accompany the nard. It’s basically the original L’Interdit with neroli added, that’s what I smell and perceive in all phases; it’s intoxicating. Almost perfect, because on my skin it lasted ages but didn’t project as much as I expected, which is why I’m not giving it a 10.

  For me, it’s almost perfect. The neroli, which I adore, has arrived to help me relax and complement the nardus. It’s the original L’Interdit with an extra kick of neroli perceptible in every phase, making it utterly intoxicating. I’ll take it off one star though; while it lasted a long time on my skin, it didn’t project as much as I hoped.

  A perfect blend between EDP and EDT, with a sparkling opening of ginger and toned-down nard, and a hint of citrus comes through, ideal for summer 😊

  I bought it after reading many positive reviews, when I still bought blind perfumes (I don’t anymore). I didn’t like the Interdit EDP and thought this would be softer… That bitter orange, ginger, almond milk… how could I not like it? It was a slap in the face… I can’t. It overwhelms me completely. I feel it too heavily on my skin. I’ve tried it in all seasons without success. One spray and I feel nauseous. I’m already looking forward to showering to get rid of that nard scent. ☹️

  I bought it after reading many positive reviews, although I no longer buy perfumes blind. I didn’t like the EDP of Interdit and thought this, being softer with bitter orange, ginger and almond milk, would be wonderful. Instead, it was a complete disaster for my face: I can’t wear it, it overwhelms me and makes me dizzy with just one spray. I’ve tried it in every season without success and now I just want to shower to get rid of that nardus scent.

  Something strange happens with L’Interdit: the EDP is a fragrance I can’t stand; it feels too heavy on me. I’ve tried several flankers and none convinced me until this version. It retains the Interdit DNA with nard and orange blossom, but toned down here, while the almond milk adds creaminess. It lacks the longevity and sillage of the EDP, which is a plus as it can be worn in winter or summer without being overwhelming.

  I find L’Interdit strange: the EDP feels far too heavy, yet this version has finally won me over. It keeps those nardus and orange blossom notes, though toned down with an almond milk undertone that adds creaminess. The projection and longevity aren’t quite like the original, but that’s a good thing as it doesn’t overwhelm me in summer or winter.
