About this deal

Thanks for the review, I had heard about this on and off for years – I think the last time was a Taylor Swift interview in InStyle Magazine were she said it was her favorite. I remember only because it was interesting to me how much more celebrities were talking about what perfume they wore as opposed to a few years ago (those celebrities not actively hawking a fragrance, I mean). In Givenchy's official (and generally meaningless) description, "Hot Couture is a creation that aims to complement the woman's body, combining sensuality and glamour with refinement and elegance. Very fashionable, the Hot Couture woman is both refined and original, slightly provocative and so uniquely charismatic." Hot Couture is "a voluptuous fragrance with spicy and woody notes (raspberry nectar, magnolia, amber-vetiver)," and it was developed by perfumers Alberto Morillas and Jacques Cavallier. Its title is a silly pun on "haute couture," and the bottle's logo looks like a dressmaker's label with pinked edges. (The older bottle design bore an image resembling a vintage fashion sketch.) Casually today I’m wearing CH Men by Carolina Herrera and I remember like more than a decade ago, my mom used to wear Hot Couture, the first version in eau de parfum concentration and I don’t know why I can really smell a lot of similarities between this two, probably the sugar, vanilla, nutmeng on CH play similar to the raspberry – vanilla on HC.

Givenchy has reinvented its iconic fragrances, including Hot Couture, with a new refined bottle emblematic of the Maison's style. Reminiscent of Hubert de Givenchy's taste for purity, it evokes the authentic luxury born of the designer's talent for Haute Couture. And unusually enough, I prefer the edt over the edp because the former has more vetiver and earthiness, is a little more “flirty” and seems to last better than the edp. The edp feels smoother, but in an almost muted, blurred sense, and the staying power wasn’t as good, at least in the mini I had for a while. The edt rollerball of this at Sephora is reasonably priced and just enough for me to decide that yes, I’d like a bottle someday. It is good to know it is apparently doing well since I discovered it way past the launch and am always worried quirky scents I like will be discontinued as they so often are. 🙂Hot, for its sensual, warm facets. Couture, for its perfection and refinement. Hot Couture Eau de Parfum is a fragrance for woman that surprises with its Floral-Fruity-Spicy notes. This Eau de Toilette for woman reveres the female body in the same spirit as an haute couture creation. Whereas edt can indeed give you a “next Flowerbomb”, easy-rasperry-sweet scent impression, edp is more refined. There is more woody-tobacco and magnolia notes, it is more smoky and ellegant. Personally I couldn’t care less for edt.

There is still a lot of difference between the eau de toilette and eau de parfum version of Hot Couture. I strongly recommend to all perfume lovers to try the edp concentration, as it is a more complex and intriguing scent. With this intimate fragrance, Givenchy composes an ode to vibrant, sensual, and passionate femininity. Blending sophisticated elegance with daring seductiveness, Hot Couture Eau de Parfum is an elixir of pleasure, to be worn like a second skin. Somewhere between daring stylishness and refined elegance, this Floral and Fruity Eau de Toilette for woman combines a Raspberry Accord and a Magnolia Accord with Rosa Damascena for a totally couture second skin scent. Great review, Jessica. I fell in love with HC when I got a sample from Sephora a couple years ago. The combination of fruit and root was so unusual to my nose, like sipping raspberry tea while transplanting flowers in a garden.Givenchy has reinvented its iconic fragrances, including Hot Couture Eau de Toilette, with a new refined bottle emblematic of the Maison's style.

And now that I think about it, I'm intrigued by this fragrance: Hot Couture has been holding its place in the Givenchy section of perfume counters since it was released in 2000, yet it's such a "neither/nor" fragrance for the venerable brand. It's neither Audrey Hepburn nor Liv Tyler, neither the classic L'Interdit nor the blandly trendy Very Irresistible and all its flankers. Nor is it one of Givenchy's coming-on-strong fragrances of the 1990s, like Amarige or Organza. What is it? There was a time when I smelled this on a lot of women who passed me by (averaging, I’d say, ages 25-40). It’s one of those scents that’s really easy to overdo.

Hah, I got my mom a bottle of this shortly after it was launched, in my pre-perfumista teen years, knowing only that she loved Givenchy perfumes and that it was the latest one. Now I smell it and realize how ill-fitting it was given her usual perfume taste (Organza and Amarige are her favorites) although she has a funky fashion sense and a love of good times, so perhaps HC wasn’t all that far off the mark. It’s deathly sweet but rather disarmingly cute and charming, like an old Debbie Gibson or Holiday-era Madonna song. Neon fruits, bubblegum, and hairspray. There’s a little room for that in everyone’s wardrobe, no?ALCOHOL, PARFUM (FRAGRANCE), AQUA (WATER), BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE, CITRONELLOL, LIMONENE, GERANIOL, ALPHA-ISOMETHYL IONONE, LINALOOL, BENZYL BENZOATE, COUMARIN, FARNESOL, BENZYL SALICYLATE, CITRAL, Givenchy has reinvented its iconic fragrances, including Hot Couture Eau de Parfum, with a new refined bottle emblematic of the Maison's style.
