L'Interdit Élixir by Givenchy is a dark, boozy gourmand around black cherry and rum. Black cherry leads the top notes, soaked in rum so the start is rich, not sharp. Rum carries the heart and, together with the fruit, grows velvety. Oak and vanilla make the base notes: dry, woody warmth that stops the sweetness becoming candy. Made for women, it also fits anyone craving a dark, indulgent scent with weight, the sort you grab once evenings turn cold. The votes place it in autumn and winter, in the evening and after dark. On skin, the longevity vote leans long-lasting and sillage leans strong, so one or two sprays fill a room. Take a 3ml decant for a week and see whether the cherry and rum mood suits you.

The community verdict
Black cherry opens L'Interdit Élixir, followed by rum and a base of oak and vanilla. Long-lasting wear leads the reports, with exceptionally long-lasting next; strong projection leads, though some find it room-filling. It suits winter evenings, and autumn nights work too.
