Irresistible Givenchy Very Floral Givenchy for women

this smells like popcorn.

Tried this yesterday and I'm still in shock over how awful this smelled on my skin once it dried down.
I was expecting to at least low-key like this as I have pretty much all the other scents in this line, albeit with reservations regarding each one, but this was just a train-wreck on my skin.
Someone here spoke of an unappealing waxy lipstick note. I definitely got that and I think that the blackcurrant also didn't play nicely with my skin chemistry. All in all a very unsuccessful melange of notes on my skin.
My favorite of this line so far is the OG whose notes I really love but unfortunately is overwhelming to me after a while to the point of slight nausea.
Here the nausea starts immediately with the dry down and just gets worse as the scent wears on my skin.

Smells different on the tester strip than it does on my skin. On paper, it is very floral, but I got a rosewater & lemon or jasmine tea type scent. On my skin, it smells more like the regular Irresistible EDP, or Rose Velvet, but not as good. The iris & blackcurrant stands out. Probably if you love Lancôme’s LVEB Iris Absolu, you will enjoy this.

Anyone else gets a Baby Powder bomb? Because, this comes off very powdery on me!

This one is a masterpiece to me , it smells classy, expensive, confidence , feminine , I love it. In a woman who knows themselves, it’s a nice one

If only there was no iris and ylang-ylang (nemesis notes for me) this would be so good to my nose. Unfortunately, that iris sticks out in this one as a sickening waxy lipstick note to me, although not as bad as in the OG. I just really don't get the fascination with iris [insert barf emoji].

It smells like buttery popcorn to me.

I have tried most of the flankers and I think this one is my favourite to date. I have the OG and like it, but don't love it. Lancome Idole is my go to pear/rose fragrance. The Rose Velvet was too woody for me. I love blackcurrant but it really didn't shine in that flanker like I expected. The Eau Fraiche I immediately decluttered.

This flanker is like what Absolutely Blooming is for the Dior line, the warm flanker. I get the Givenchy rose DNA in here but it's got some warmth behind it. The yellow florals were very prominent when I first got the bottle but now that it's been open a month they are more in the background (which I prefer). I can't smell any coconut or blackcurrant. All in all I like the flanker but it's not a love.

My favourite rose fragrances are Idole and Si Intense (both 2024 and 2021 releases).

Such a beautiful warm floral scent. I enjoy testing this out, I smell iris and florals...not sure what other notes I smell since I can't detect. It does not smell like the OG Irresistible, to me it smells better and not in my face.

somehow this has a popcorn note?

Got a sample in a shipment from Ulta and decided to give it a whirl. I should have read the (very good, thoughtful, and well-written) reviews here first because this decidedly was Not For Me in a way that, I can completely see how this is a well-made fragrance that could be lovely on others. I actually like the OG Irresistible but this just didn't work on me.

Incredibly accurate initial blast of coconut water, then unfolding into a juicy, very floral scent. Young but not teen, somewhat generic at first but pleasant and standing out from her peers slightly. It’s a subtle difference but she walks a little slower, she stands a little taller, she’s wearing the same clothes as the rest of them but she got them tailored. She goes to a nice tailor, and she goes regularly. When she dries down she gets subtly sexier. “Subtle” is being overused here, but it’s a central part of my experience with Irresistible, Very Floral. It’s nice, subtly so. It’s generic but a little nicer, subtly so. That distinction is a key part of my read on this one. It gets the most interesting to me as it dries, revealing a slightly more nuanced, slightly more mature, sleek underbelly. But always juicy, fun, floral, and sweet. Something sexier and drier at the bottom of it that really swept me off my feet. Surprisingly (to me) I love the way this smells on me. I’m not usually reaching for florals or fruity scents but this tweaked my perspective a little.

The ambrette renders this perfume borderline floral-gourmand and even though the OG has ambrette too, here its nutty effect is more intense and lasting due to the amber. This version is like having a fresh zesty dessert in a blooming garden under the warm May sun. That's the first element I smell from this, sweet zesty & almost edible. I love ambrette, it's always smooth and calming and usually accompanied by a solar effect which it amplifies and complements; it comes off quite syrupy with the amber here. It is not a basic floral scent and I could tell there are strong solar notes here because the ylang ylang-black currant pair smelled kinda like salty orange blossom to me pretty quickly after the initial coconut/bergamot- ambrette blast. Ylang ylang is always found in solar scents and I prefer it as opposed to orange blossom, also giving a solar effect in perfumes. I dislike salty orange blossom notes in general just as I dislike unripe pear (salty too), and the Ylang ylang acts like orange blossom here once again apparently just like in BBW's Tropidelic, but it's always better. The black currant makes this bright, slightly green, tart and salty on me. I don't like black currant, and it always pops up in aldehydic fragrances (Moonlight Lady La Rive = Boss Nuit). It totally suits the vibe here though, it must be one of the rare instances that it doesn't bother me.

The sweet solar elements of this perfume are comforting and beautiful, like the warm spring-time sun after a long cold winter. There is strong aldehydic effect at the drydown. The rose is fresh, slightly balsamic-heady as rose always is to me, but not nauseating and it accentuates the aldehydic vibe here. The opening is impressive and addicting so beautiful that I had to spray it again and again and again, and it felt as if this Irresistible version did not fit in with the other ones. The drydown is more generic, fresh and floral like the OG is to me, and it's quite aldehydic like spring air, not a bad thing, but the ambrette-amber elevate this scent as they retain the solar sweet creaminess. Smart move to place these notes at the base. I've moved on from department store screechy fresh floral scents, but this one is not one-dimensional. It is more interesting than the original Irresistible and more rich than the Fraiche version which is mainly iris-dominant and kinda powdery, not bad, forgettable though. The Fraiche is just plain to me on my skin, yet incredible-smelling from the sprayer. If I were to have one Irresistible it'd be this Very Floral.

I'll have to see how it compares to Good Girl Blush as I dislike peony and it lacks the woody base of this one, but their pyramid is quite similar since ambrette may mimic almond and bergamot-ylang ylang are common notes. I always preferred Coach Dreams Sunset, Dahlia and Intimate Women Secret over the much heavier spicier Good Girl, so I am probably biased against Good Girl.

As someone who has tons of perfumes, this smells identical to good girl blush. If you own that perfume, it's no need for both.

This is a very unique blend of a scent and I quite like it , it has sweetness thats like nutty on my skin with the fresh solar but I do not get rose at all on me since ppl say rose right away. I get solar soon as it hits my skin. I think this is a spring summery winner , the drydown is really nice and a bit sexy femme. rate 9

I sprayed this on my hand at the store and couldn't wait to get home to wash it off. There's something in the "Irresistible" DNA that nauseates me and it shines through in this version as well. Add to that the "green", aquatic rose and "solar notes", and it's just an all-around miss for me. Not that it's a bad fragrance, but doesn't appeal to me at all.

The opening is a heavy dose of Rose de Grasse
The rose-floral notes get sweeter as they set on the skin and i can also start smelling the iris which gives the scentmore dimension.
Its not really a very fresh scent; it has more personality than the last irresistible rose velvetwith pretty good projection.
But if you're not a fan of fresh rose scents like me this is really not for you.

This perfume was a pleasant surprise for me. I'm obsessed!

I would believe it if someone told me this was a niche perfume or from Parfums de Marly. Very light, floral, with a slight sweetness from the notes of ambrette and coconut water. The notes fo roses are also prominent.

It's different from Irresistible OG, but it's actually from the same family. It is a very feminine perfume, worthy of a princess, very delicate. Yes, princess is the perfect word for this one.

I think it will be very good to layer with the Irresistible OG.

I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a light, more intimate fragrance, perfect for warmer climates. Think I've found a new signature!

Super pretty and it’s a beachy floral almost smells like gardenia which I see not listed in the notes! I didn’t like the OG but I love this one! I am liking Givenchy more and more each day especially since the prices of niche has skyrocketed! 😉

I think this is a very similar smell to Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming.

Very pretty, the added notes do give this a creamier beachy vibe compared to the original which was more fruity and tart from the pear. I like it. It isn’t my type to purchase but if you like rose + yellow florals or think the original was juvenile/too much like shampoo, this may be a good one. It didn’t last all day but it was a solid 6 hour performer on my skin.

On paper it was really fresh but on my skin it’s like powdery strawberry ice cream. A princess perfume but still smart enough for work.

So this is my story w very floral,
I got a testing strip at the store the other day and I kept it inside my phone case so I kept perceiving every now and then, also that day I got one spray of this one and the irresistible edp and I enjoyed the scent of very floral in the strip only, and didn’t like any once on my skin. But the next day I smelt Very Floral again from the paper and I was like I have to get it.

Today I got the chance to spray myself 4 times at the store w Very Floral (neck and wrists) very good atomizer by the way and well, I honestly like my Bombshell Passion scent a lot more. I won’t be buying Very Floral, even though it doesn’t smell ugly.
It basically has a lot of sweet coconut water w flowers, I wanted to try it at the beach though. But gosh for that amount of money I just don’t think I enjoy the scent enough, or the other ones bc I’m not ready for patchouli. I feel this perfume should be light yellow instead of light pink.

So yeah, there are better sweet fragrances in the market, unless u test this and love it, then buy it haha I took my time to explore the fragrance first and I’m glad my perfume lady didn’t have it for me to impulsively buy just by the smell of the paper strip ✨ bc I contacted her this afternoon and then I went to the mall for a movie and stopped by the store and saved myself 160 bucks
thanks for your time if u guys read this

soo lovely and gorgeous, it’s powdery and baby lotion like. reminds me of a more rosey version of ‘my way giorgio armani’.. yet i do feel this is rather generic despite liking it so much, in 2024 i feel like i’ve smelt this a hundred times. it is a very safe perfume but wouldn’t recommend for the price point.

It starts with something very bitter on my skin but that fades away quickly and it turns into a weak woody floral scent with barely any trace of rose; only the iris is coming through slightly. The dry down is much better, the rose is more noticeable but still not it for me. Smells like a very expensive soap or body lotion. Perhaps I expected too much from it. I will give it a try again in hot weather, maybe it will work better.

I really like this! However, it pulls EXTREMELY woody on my skin, for whatever reason. The opening is absolutely stunning, but it dries down to a very strong ambrette and cedar on my skin, which is a little overpowering. With that being said, this is definitely a head turner and compliment getter. I smelled most of the flankers at ulta today and genuinely liked all of them. This one was toward the top of the list, just a little bummed by how it reacted with my skin chemistry. I’d test it first, but if you’re a rose lover and like deep, perfume-y fragrances this is for you.

Rose Suntan Lotion. Should be called Irresistible Soleil. Hard pass for me, but if you like solar yellow florals and rose, check it out.

Generic, typical blah blah sorry but this smells too pretty. Floral jellybelly. Mmm

Irresistible Very Floral’s opening is very fruity in fact: I can detect instantly the smell of a ripe, rich, syrupy blackcurrant.

As the fragrance develops on the skin the most distinguishable notes to my nose are: rose, iris, jasmine, in this order, and then some non discernible woods.

It’s a pretty perfume that smells good but in the same time is a classic fruity floral, powdery, with a warm, woody base. I don’t think it brings much value to my personal collection, since I have quite a few of fragrances with this DNA, so I’ll skip easily on this one.

As points of reference, it is in the same vein as Armani Si line, Paco Rabanne’s Olympea Flora or Maison Martin Margiela’s On a Date. So if you already have any of those, maybe you don’t need Irrisistible Very Floral either…

Testing it from an official Givenchy sample, the performance seems to be on the moderate side. A bit overpriced for what it is. Has a cute, classic bottle though!

I seem to be anosmic to the musks in Irresistible Very Floral, as I actually can't smell it (while my best friend could). I can smell the previous flankers in this line and my favourite is Irresistible Rose Velvet. I was really excited about this perfume, so I will try it again later and update.

This smells so good. Im a fan of yellow florals and u get a good mix of the OG irresistible with the warmth of yellow florals. It’s so cute. The rose can still be found as well.

The rose has a beachy vibe. A tropical coconut rose with solar notes. A little headache inducing for me. I just don't think rose goes with the coconut and solar notes. If you like the idea of a beach suntan lotion rose( I don't) this is a beachy suntan lotion rose.

very much yellow floral at first spray, however on the dry down the sweetness really comes out. im typically not a fan of super fresh florals but this fragrance is beautiful! a great combination of fresh, floral, and girly, but still sweet and sexy.

Saw it in the shops like a week ago and was so confused because I hadn't seen ANY news of this coming anywhere online. Tried to look up here too and nothing. Now it's here and I can say that it's a good spring fragrance on a heavy yellow flower side, which I adore, so this might go to the cart. Still got that Irresistible DNA in her but I really don't dig the bottle much.

This such a stupid cash grab flanker. Lemme add to cart.
