L'Interdit Narcisse Blanc

L'Interdit Narcisse Blanc, a 2026 release from Givenchy, is a white floral built around narcissus, the flower that gives it its name. Everyone who describes it calls it floral, half add woody, and a third each mention sweetness, green, musk and citrus.

Blood orange and neroli open it with a bright, slightly bitter citrus, and ginger adds a quick spark of heat. The heart is dense white flowers: narcissus brings a green, hay-like, faintly earthy floral note, tuberose and jasmine sambac the creamy, heady richness, and orange blossom a honeyed softness. Bitter almond gives a marzipan sweetness that sits well with the flowers. The base is mossy and mineral rather than sweet: oakmoss gives a cool, damp greenness, vetiver and patchouli a dry, earthy depth, cashmeran a soft, warm woodiness, and white musk a clean finish.

Marketed for women, it suits spring and autumn and evening wear, and a person who enjoys classic white florals with an earthy, slightly bitter backbone.
