So glad to hear it was still ok when the Mythiques came out! I’ve been considering whether I ought to look for a cheap bottle too.

But yes, loved that blue cap!!

I’ve just bought the re-packaged EdG from Givenchy’s 2007 ‘Mythical’ line, worried lest it had been re-formulated, but all seems well. Compared to my 1996 bottle, they seemed pretty much identical, tho’ other people with more experienced noses than mine might detect differences.

The re-packaged version only comes in a 100ml bottle but I got a good price for it online. This is the only 100ml bottle I own and it looks enormous, sitting on my dressing table. Still, spritzed generously after a shower on a hot day it is heavenly. So it’s great to have a big bottle.

EdeG comes packed in lilac and I miss that lovely, very distinctive old blue.

So citrusy, and sparkling. I love this scent and am never without it in Summer. Nothing better on a warm day to perk yourself up.

And I have really never smelled most of the newer ones, including Hot Couture! There is always more sniffing to be done

I've never smelled Eau de Givenchy but I tend to like the older Givenchy's rather than the newer ones which I feel are heavier. I do however like Hot Couture (black). I didn't like it at first but I spotted it on clearence for $11 so I bought it and over time learned to love it.

Hi – The Folie is on its way and has not been received yet I will certainly let you know when it does! I owe you a samp. I will let you know what is at Tak later this weekend – going on Saturday if the weather holds. Happy you are feeling better. Thanks for the info on the EdG.
