Givenchy Xeryus Rouge Eau De Toilette 100ml

Product Information

In comparison to today’s alternatives it does posses some very unique and individual qualities. It doesn’t really smell like anything which I currently own from the modern day, which makes it a good one to wear when you want some individuality and something different.

Both also have a herbal-aromatic component, but Xeryus Rouge is dryer, more acidic and spare, and has better definition. Ouragan leans more towards the aromatic and then gets sweeter and more floral as time goes on; spreading wider, getting softer, and becoming warmer with spice. Which fragrance I like I know now, if it weren't for the 70s and 80s which steal so many scents from the show. OU evolves in the direction of sweetened geranium. This makes for a decent transition which moves the profile through citrus down to the sweet ambery powdery base.

It's not for everybody. Xeryus Rouge has one of the sharpest, most pungent openings of any fragrance I've encountered. It's likely to offend those with olfactory sensitivities in way quite similar to Fahrenheit. Cactus and tarragon dominate the top notes. Your friends probably haven’t heard of Xeryus Rouge, so if you tell them you’re wearing this, they’ll probably think it’s a brand new range!

I cannot detect the citrus or musk notes that some other reviewers do: they're simply not part of the formulation.The bottle is red taken from the Rouge part of the name, with a small plastic top and metal atomizer. It seems to have very small and subtle hints of almost every different style of fragrances; You can smell hints of citrus with green, woody, warm and aromatic but still fresh and spicy. What shines through is the aromatic and slight spicy notes, making this one for the evenings and nights out, warming up a cold autumn or winter night. If that sounds like something you’re looking for I would consider this, I would advise testing it over blind-buying as it is quite different to most other scents. Although it’s nice and pleasant to smell it’s never been a firm favourite of mine, it’s not something which I’ve fell in love with, but it is nice and not offensive. The opulence of woody orientals is absolutely irresistible. The spices and resins are extremely complementary, enhancing each other's aromas. When this particular product is first applied, terragon, kumquat and cactus come to the fore. These follow through with heart notes of cedar, geranium and pepper. As the fragrance matures, a billow of sandalwood, musk and cedar arises to round out the olfactory experience.
