Ange ou Démon
Ange ou Démon is the eau de parfum for women launched by Givenchy in 2006, signed by Olivier Cresp and Jean-Pierre Béthouart. This floral oriental sets the mandarin, white thyme and saffron of its top against a heart of orange blossom, lily and ylang-ylang, and rests on a base of tonka bean and oakwood, in a cut bottle designed by Serge Mansau.

Givenchy launched Ange ou Démon in 2006, an eau de parfum for women built on the duality of its name. The house describes it as a fragrance as luminous as it is dark, designed for a woman whose spellbinding charm comes with a thrill of danger.
Olivier Cresp and Jean-Pierre Béthouart
The fragrance is signed by two perfumers, Olivier Cresp and Jean-Pierre Béthouart. Givenchy classifies it among floral orientals and presents it as elusive and fascinating, poised between radiant white flowers and woody depths.
A whole line
Ange ou Démon opened a whole line. Givenchy followed it with Ange ou Démon Tendre in 2008 and Ange ou Démon Le Secret in 2009, and extended its world with L’Ange Noir, whose name echoes the dark side of the original fragrance.
How Givenchy presents it today
Givenchy now presents Ange ou Démon as a sensory duality, in which radiant white flowers stand against enveloping woody depths, and speaks of a sensual addiction with a floral oriental character.

The advertising
Marie Steiss, 2006
Marie Steiss, daughter of Dominique de Villepin, became the face of Ange ou Démon in 2006.
Givenchy entrusted the launch of Ange ou Démon to Marie Steiss, a twenty-year-old model and daughter of Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, who became the face of the fragrance and of its first campaigns.
The line changed faces with Ange ou Démon Le Secret, embodied by Natasha Poly in the early 2010s.
