Givenchy
Organza
“Tuberose and gardenia under powdered amber — Givenchy's 1996 floral oriental, vintage by accident.”
One of the defining white-floral launches of the 1990s — Sophie Labbé's 1996 release for Givenchy, the Greek-goddess-shaped bottle giving it a distinctive shelf identity. Gardenia at the top, a tuberose-honeysuckle heart, settling on a vanilla drydown. A fall and winter evening fragrance.
The take
