by Givenchy
Eaudemoiselle de Givenchy Romantic opens with a pronounced gourmand accord that evokes sweet buttered popcorn and milk chocolate, creating an immediately playful and inviting impression. On many skin types, this initial phase is richly edible and slightly salty, with the chocolate note being soft, milky, and slightly saucy rather than dark or bitter. As the fragrance develops, it transitions into a sophisticated modern chypre with dusty, powdery floral notes, a hint of earthy patchouli, and a subtle spicy warmth. The drydown reveals a nuanced interplay of woody, earthy, and slightly ambery depth, with some users detecting a makeup-like powderiness and others a faint oud-like trail. The overall effect is elegant and ladylike rather than overtly sweet or commercial. Sillage is moderate to strong on some skin types, and longevity is moderate, blending comfortably into eveningwear and autumn winter contexts.
