"My perfumes have been the extension of my couture, of the elegance that I wanted to impart to my clothes. Perfume is one of the elements of a style. I've always told my female customers "You have a style, personality, emphasize them. And if you happen to be living with a perfume, keep it, for it is a part of yourself."
Givenchy also lays to rest the myth surrounding the L'interdit perfume and explains its name.......
In fact Givenchy chose the name for the perfume himself as a way to attract Audrey Hepburn like one entices children more certainly by forbidding them to do something. Apparently, a journalist got the story wrong and it was the beginning of the myth of an Audrey Hepburn exclaiming "I forbid you" upon learning of the public launch of her signature fragrance. He also explains that his Vétyver is inspired by the vétiver by Mary Chess, which he wore but always thought was a bit strong.
