ENOUGH TAMPERING WITH ORIGINALS SUE C 02/17/2004 08:10 PM 2 out of 5 stars
 
MESSAGE BY SUE C
I've just tried the reformulated L'interdit and sadly, it is nothing like the original. That fantastic rush of spice and flowers has gone. Audrey would turn in her grave. Do not buy this new one, vote with your wallet. Bring out a new perfume by all means but give it a new name. The manufacturers have risked losing loyal fans just to gain a few sales in the fickle younger market by turning this classic into a bland, just-like-everything-else product. If enough fans complain, they may bring back the original. In the 80's Lanvin reformulated Arpege with a lighter younger scent in cheap packaging and for a cheaper price (someone gave me a bottle). It was nice, but nothing special. It must have been a sales flop because happily they returned to the original formula with the original beautiful bottle by Lalique. So, please put your complaints in writing to Givenchy and we might get our original L'interdit back. (Lucky I have an unopened bottle, I think I'll hang onto it just in case).
