ExhibitionsGIVENCHY - TRAIL OF AN ERA
GIVENCHY - TRAIL OF AN ERA We invite you to a special perfume breakfast dedicated to the vintage fragrances of Givenchy - scents from an era when perfumery was part of high fashion, and the creation of perfumes became a true art. We will unveil the history of the legendary compositions of the House of Givenchy, discuss the great perfumers, unusual ingredients for their time, and learn how the characteristic sound of perfumery was created in past decades. A special place will be given to the legendary L’Interdit, associated with the names of Hubert de Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn, as well as other iconic compositions of Givenchy from different eras. We will explore how the perfume palette of the House has changed - from luxurious floral and aldehydic compositions to sensual woody, leathery, chypre, and oriental accords. THE PROGRAM INCLUDES - the history of the House of Givenchy and its perfumery heritage; - Hubert de Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn; - the history of the creation of legendary fragrances; - famous perfumers behind their formulas; - characteristics of perfumery from the 1950s to the 1980s; - introduction to characteristic ingredients and accords of the era; - testing vintage Givenchy fragrances on blotters; - comparing vintage sounds with modern interpretations; - a discussion on why old formulas are perceived completely differently today. On the table - vintage Givenchy bottles, rare aromatic compositions, and blotters, on which we will gradually reveal their sound. And all this - in the atmosphere of a beautiful perfumed morning, over a refined breakfast included in the event's cost. This will be a meeting for those who are interested not just in wearing a fragrance, but in understanding its history, feeling its character, and hearing the time in which it was created. Vintage Givenchy - a fragrance as part of history. Paris. High fashion. Great perfumers. And perfumes that continue to sound beautifully in their own way decades later.
