Ange ou Démon

A true enigma of perfumery, this juice is woven from multiple contrasts. Is it an angel? Is it a demon? Whatever the case, it remains very harmonious and could well draw one in to catch them in its illusory traps…

Givenchy's mysterious woman

The story of the fragrance Ange ou Démon began in 2006 at the hands of perfumers Jean Pierre Béthouart and Olivier Cresp. Together, they imagined a splendid and mysterious fragrance that anchors itself wonderfully in the world of Givenchy. It is akin to a fascinating and irresistible light, capable of shimmering as much as blinding. Ange ou Démon is a fragrance that seems capable of stirring every fantasy. It is an intriguing juice that can sometimes bring on a sense of vertigo. Beneath its angelic airs, it conceals as many traps and challenges as a demonic voice. The Ange ou Démon woman is therefore full of temperament. She is seductive while also knowing how to be discreet. Her fragrance is in her image. It is unsettling, at once crystalline and shadowy. Her charm proves powerful and charismatic. Ange ou Démon is akin to an almost magical elixir woven from oriental and sensual flowers. Its multiple contrasts are the work of exceptional creativity, and its allure seems without limit.

The contrasts of Ange ou Démon

Ange ou Démon opens like a surprise. It has unexpected and invigorating top notes. These highlight essence of Calabria mandarin, a revitalizing and somewhat cheeky fruit. Then white thyme appears, reinforcing the aromatic facet of this freshness. Here, Givenchy lets all its refinement burst forth by incorporating into its composition one of the most expensive spices in the world: saffron. It remains spicy yet tender. It is added subtly here and opens the way to a more floral heart. Lily is worked with extreme femininity and uncommon elegance. It is paired with orchid as well as ylang-ylang. Its heart is at once powdery and exotic. It is simply radiant. However, the whole gradually evolves toward a darker facet. The sillage of Ange ou Démon is woven from woody notes of oak and rosewood paired with tonka bean and vanilla. The whole then comes to a close like a sensual enigma. Its bottle, meanwhile, is a true jewel. Ange ou Démon is held in a case of chiseled glass. This offers a hypnotic gradient, light at its base and dark at its top. Thus, it is in the image of the woman it embodies. A pendant then comes to protect this fragrance. The whole is cut like a prism and captures light like a diamond. In every respect, Ange ou Démon is a true jewel.
