What does Very Irrésistible Givenchy L'Intense smell like?

Plum opens with a fruity sweetness, and rose carries the floral heart. Patchouli and musk form a woody, powdery base, while the oriental and spicy accords add warmth. A synthetic sheen runs through it.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and night out and evening wear lead the occasions. It reads as a feminine scent. It has been discontinued. Hind Al Oud Rose and Jean Paul Gaultier Ma Dame (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
