Givenchy | Live Irresistible Eau de Toilette – Review

I’m a fan of fabulous scents, and I’ve been exploring a couple of scents which I like in the past few months.

Givenchy comes up often as a fave, as I have now in possession two of them – ‘Play‘, and ‘Live Irresistible‘.

I love both, but I adore Live Irresistible just a bit more. Research shows it does make me quite irresistible.

Live Irresistible was launched in summer of 2015, with a philosophical tagline: “We live only once”.

Jasmine of the Happy Sloths blog describes it as ‘Sweet, fruity, and utterly irresistible’.

Live Irresistible comes in four versions: Eau de Parfum, Rosy Crush Eau de Parfum Florale, Eau de Toilette, and Blossom Crush Eau de Toilette.

I have only tried out one of these four scents – the Eau de Toilette.

Unboxing

The fragrance come in a pretty pink box, with words written in silver.

Bottle

All the Eau de Parfume and the Eau de Toilette versions of Live Irresistible come in a tall, three-sided bottle with a unique appearance.

The back sides of the bottle are pressed with a studded design, giving the fragrance a cool and edgy feel.

The fragrance has a shiny silver top and it’s capped with a clear acrylic cap.

It is tinted a pale shade of pink.

Olfactory Notes

Heart: Rose Essentielle™ LMR, Pimento Berry LMR

Base: Powdery Musks, Light Woods

As described by Jasmine on the Happy Sloths blog having reviewed the Eau de Parfum and the Eau de Toilette – the Eau de Toilette is a sweeter and lighter take on the Eau de Parfum.

Givenchy Live Irresistible Eau de Toilette opens with a lovely whiff of raspberry, which slowly fades to reveal a soft rosy center.

This scent is quite light and refreshing – and yet it lasts all day long.

Some may however find this scent a bit too strong, especially when it has been recently applied.

Cents

The fragrance comes on two sizes – 50ml and 75ml.

The price ranges from $48-$150, depending on the size, and where you buy it. Pretty affordable, isn’t it?

My Rating: 4.6/5

I higly recommend this fragance.
