Play

It starts on grapefruit. It ends, hours later, on musk. Givenchy Play is everything that happens in between.

How it moves

The first breath is grapefruit, bergamot and mandarin orange, and it is loud about it. Underneath, amyris, bourbon pepper and coffee settle in and take over. The base is patchouli, amber, vetiver and musk. That is the bit on your scarf the next morning.

Who made it

Rodrigo Flores-Roux composed it in 2008, for Givenchy in France. Fronted by Justin Timberlake and packaged like an MP3 player, Play paired grapefruit and amyris with a distinctive coffee-tinged base.
