FRAGRANCE TIPS
Blends of floral and citrus-based fragrances are recommended for casual and daywear. Spicy, woody or warm amber-based fragrances are traditionally favorites for evening and special occasions.

MESSAGE BY WHO-S-THATLADY
Uptown Girl...I totally agree with your problem in wearing L'Interdit. I am also very scent-sensitive, and most beautiful fragrances smell like BUG SPRAY on me after a while. So, I, too am VERY particular. This is what leads me to Maya and 2010 Woman... I am sooooo disappointed with Givenchy for altering the original fragrance. WHY? "If it ain't broke, don't FIX it!" If the original was good enough for the beloved Audrey Hepburn (also one of MY favorite stars), then it's GOOD ENOUGH for ME! She symbolized easy elegance and earthy sophistication...I am reminded of myself IN her style. I'm glad you were honest enough to share this information about "pleasing the masses". I WAS going to purchase a few bottles. Now, I know to stick with my true classics....Chanel #5 and Arpege. I definitely don't go wrong with EITHER of them. Soft, powdery, distinct fragrances...."oldladyish" (smile) to some....CLASSICS to those of us who know better (smile)!
