Ange ou Démon
Ange ou Démon by Givenchy is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2006 in the designer price tier. It opens with thyme, mandarin and saffron, moves into orchid and ylang-ylang and dries down to tonka bean, rosewood, oakmoss and vanilla. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Thyme Dry, sharp kitchen herb. Bracing and slightly antiseptic.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
Heart
- Orchid Creamy, sweet and slightly synthetic. A modern florals staple.
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
Dry-down
- Tonka Bean Almond, hay and vanilla in one. Warm and slightly nutty.
- Rosewood Soft, rosy wood. Gentle and slightly floral.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
