Description

Xeryus Rouge, the scent of a sensual encounter

Givenchy has offered many exceptional creations and has become a mark of excellence in the fields of haute couture, but also leather goods and perfumery. His first fragrance, Hubert de Givenchy owes it to his meeting with Audrey Hepburn, to whom he will dedicate “L’Interdit”. In 1995, after great olfactory successes, Givenchy presented “Xeryus Rouge”, an oriental masculine fragrance with a dominant fern.

The modern hero of Givenchy

If Givenchy gave the name to her perfume “Xeryus”, it is because she wanted to have her Greek hero. It is true that many perfume houses have appealed to mythology to imagine a perfume, and Givenchy also wanted a hero of modern times. Here the hero is strong and triumphant. Half-man, half-centaur, Xeyrus displays a natural magnetism. He seduced Ysatis, his Greek goddess, with whom he forms a mythical couple. If “Xeryus” saw the light of day in 1986, “Xeryus Rouge” is intended to be much more suggestive. The hero of modern times loves games of seduction and sensual encounters. Between strength and love, “Xeryus Rouge” is a contrasting fragrance. The color red echoes the color of love, of the passion whose history has been played out and replayed since the dawn of time.

The suave and sensual notes of Xeryus Rouge

It is the first time that Givenchy has used the oriental family for a masculine fragrance. “Xeryus Rouge” opens with notes full of life and at the very least unexpected, with the accord of cactus, soaked in water, with tarragon and kumquat, a citrus fruit much appreciated for its suave freshness. The heart is spicy with the presence of red pepper. This combines with the green notes of African geranium and cedar leaves. As for the background, it is intended to be very sensual. It is composed of cedarwood, ambergris, sandalwood and white musks. The oriental sensuality of “Xeryus Rouge” is at its peak. The bottle immediately displays an imposing structure. Its red colored nectar reveals the fiery passion of the hero. Its black label and black cabochon bring a final touch of elegance.

After “Xeryus” which was born in 1986, Givenchy presented in 1995, “Xeryus Rouge”. The latter is the fragrance of a conquering man, in the image of a Greek God. With its suave and sensual notes, the God of Givenchy affirms a flawless bewitchment. The red color of its nectar confirms the seduction and passion that animates the Xeryus from Givenchy. “Xeryus” is now part of the very special “Les Parfums Mythiques” collection by Givenchy.

Hubert de Givenchy and his eponymous perfume house have always been able to offer men fragrances which correspond to them and which meet their desires in every way. In 1985, the handsome and fresh Xeryus was born from the talents of Alberto Morillas, but joined 10 years later by Xeryus Rouge composed by Annick Ménardo, he stole the show to better remain in the very closed club of cult perfumes. The modernity and the striking contrasts of Xeryus Rouge still make it one of the favorite male fragrances of these gentlemen … < / p>

Annick Menardo offers Givenchy a bath of modernity and originality with Xeryus Rouge

The Givenchy house undoubtedly loves women and has been offering them magnificent fragrances since its beginnings in 1957. But Givenchy also loves men and, something rarer, excels in the art of offering them perfumes which, all eras combined, are as reassuring as they are modern, as classic as they are joyfully confusing. From Monsieur and Eau de Vétyver in 1959 to Gentleman in 1974 and Xeryus in 1985, Givenchy offers these gentlemen the beauty of fragrances that are as much in their time as in their time.

In 1985 Alberto Morillas, a perfumer who is a past master in the art of composing sublime freshness, will offer Givenchy the sublime slender and sober Xeryus fern. Powerful and energetic, Xeryus is the scent of all conquests …

In 1995, Annick Ménardo will compose a new opus for this elegant and powerful man from Xeryus: Xeryus Rouge. Always so fresh and energetic, Xeryus Rouge does not hesitate to play with peppers and other sensual heat to spread the fire that his elder brother had barely lit. A fire and a passion that will not be extinguished and which make that even today Xeryus Rouge is offered as one of the greatest perfumes of the Givenchy house, while Xeryus is one of the classics. For once, the variation has exceeded the original model!

Xeryus Rouge or the spicy and fresh elixir of Givenchy

When Annick Ménardo offers perfumes , they always play with classic or even retro notes to better showcase the brilliant finds of this perfumer who is particularly attached to modernity and originality. In composing Xeryus Rouge, the great lady did not hesitate to increase the magnificent hot and cold temperatures of Xeryus to make them incandescent with spicy and spicy notes, a masculine cocktail totally unheard of in perfumery.

Xeryus Rouge opens with intensely dynamic notes of kumquat and green cactus, where its elder was more timid despite the freshness of its aromatic notes. In the heart, Xeryus’ violet flower disappears to better be replaced by… red chilli! The tone is set, Xeryus Rouge is an intrepid who will carry us away in scorching heat to better surprise us with the spicy notes of peppery geranium and nervous cedar. Finally, sandalwood and white musk offer this adventurer a bath of sensual sweets in order to appease this fire which will nevertheless never cease to embrace us.
