Givenchy Beauty launches the new Le Rouge Interdit Intense Silk lipstick and L’Interdit EDT at their first flagship boutique
The holiday season is upon us, and what better way to kickstart the festivities than a shopping spree at Givenchy Beauty? Last week, Givenchy Beauty (#01- 40B) opened its first and only flagship boutique at the newly rejuvenated Raffles City Mall where you can uncover merchandise exclusively available at the boutique.
Here's what to expect: the La Collection Particulière de Givenchy, a premium couture fragrance range, and the House’s premium skincare range, Le Soin Noir. From L’Interdit and Irresistible to Givenchy Gentleman and Prisme Libre, the open floor space allows for product discovery and easy navigation. Of course, no boutique experience is complete without knowledgeable Givenchy Beauty Consultants to provide skincare consultation and advice on the latest product offerings.
I was invited to the media preview and was shown around by the lovely boutique manager with product knowledge at her fingertips. In particular, two new products stood out: the Le Rouge Interdit Intense Silk lipstick and L’Interdit Eau de Toilette, a new women’s fragrance.
Drawn by the enigmatic portrait of Rooney Mara in Le Rouge Interdit Intense Silk lipstick in N37 Rouge Graine, I tried a variety of their top shades (out of a whopping 23 colours!). I loved their great selection of colour choices and their semi-matte formula that is buildable and long-lasting. Thom Walker, the House’s new Makeup Creative Director, redefines its iconic semi-matte lipsticks in a cleaner formula. Eco-responsibly sourced, the lipstick uses active natural ingredients such as Acemella Oleracea extract, which keeps the lips smooth with no flakiness.
Subsequently, I got acquainted with their latest fragrance – L’Interdit Eau de Toilette. I had a whiff of the scent and was instantly drawn, not knowing its base and heart notes. According to the lovely boutique manager, the story goes that the Givenchy founder exclusively crafted the original scent for the iconic Audrey Hepburn. The fragrance was made available to the public only after years of exclusive use by Audrey Hepburn. The refreshed fragrance opens to citrus trio notes of bergamot, orange, mandarin and electrifying ginger. It finishes with sensual notes of voluptuous musk hinted by leathery cistus and the captivating notes of patchouli and vetiver.
The alluring and unforgettable L’Interdit Eau de Toilette scent was masterfully crafted by perfumers Fanny Bal, Anne Flipo and Dominique Ropion. Doing their bit for the environment, the glass bottle is made using 11% recycled glass using sustainably sourced ingredients for the fragrance.
