Absolutely Irresistible

This is my go to scent. AI is a heady, spicy, slightly soapy floral oriental. I love the lushness of the berries and florals in this scent, and the paprika makes it uniquely spicy. AI starts out quite strong, and fades to a moderate sillage on me after about two hours. Initially it can be a bit overwhelming, and I do not recommend it for warm weather wear, as it can really expand on you- and not in a good way! But for winter, it is a perfect, warm, sensual mix. I get compliments regularly, particularly from men. Women seem to be on the fence about AI, but men walk up to me and make admiring comments on the scent all the time. This scent has a lot of personality, and it will be remarked upon! AI translates well from day to night wear, although a second application is usually needed for the evening. The dry down seems to be pretty variable according to the reviews here. On me, AI starts out with a strong mandarin, berry, patchouli blast, then the cedar takes over. AI eventually mellows to the heliotrope, jasmine and orange blossom, with just a touch of the cedar to keep it clean and grounded. The paprika lingers, but only faintly, and the berries seem to show up most when I am warm...becoming more lush at key moments. This is definitely not a scent for a woman who likes sweet florals/sweet gourmands. It's got some panache, and does require that your chemistry agree with it. Please don't blind buy this scent- if it doesn't suit your skin, you will be unhappy. However, if your skin does agree with it, you will end up with a scent that is fresh, sensual, and arresting. And you'll get lots of compliments ;) EDIT: This has been discontinued, but is still available while it remains in stock. If you've been wanting to try AI, I recommend you do so soon!

Glamor in a bottle with fire, with one spray Absolutely Irresistible turns a drab gray winter's morning into a fiery spicy and sexy soiree that is out of the ordinary i truly admire this scent from top to bottom it's just beautiful. Opens with sharp oranges that awaking your senses then lush red ripe berries adds to the sex and sin to this fragrance comes steeping though like a hot wind with the spicy top drydown of Pimento, As we enter the middle it becomes musky Heliotrope with it's milky almond scent opens the middle Jasmine is very prominent dominates the center not interrupting the spiciness of this. Amber dries beautifully without being cloying or oily and musk i do detect Musk that is missing in the scent cards Ceder has always been hard for me to pick up and this is no exception Patchouli like in 90% of scents is overshadowed by the more flamboyant players but in a quiet way it's make it's presence known in it's earthy graceness and ends with the Vanilla. The Bottle is the most classiest thing i every seen it conjures a retro 50's Hollywood sex siren ala Marilyn Monroe in her famous musical numbers Diamonds are a girl's best friend walking down the red Velvet stairs with glittering rhinestones so clear and shining that illuminates Glamor to the T or the Saucy Number with another 50's bombshell Jane Russell in her form fitting Red sequined gown Singing two little girls from Little Rock In Who wants to marry a Millionaire. This sets apart from other modern scent that is released today it's bolder Fuller more bodied then the current trend for light watery fragrances that has no lasting power This capture the Zeitgeist of 50's Glam.

Irresistible in a bottle!! Initial Spriz: a strong patchouli dominates 5 min later: the patchouli has calmed down, I smell cherries and amber with a hint of spice 2 hrs later: wow the perfume has really mellowed down I get cheries, a shy patchouli or maybe that is amber with a hint of spice 6 hrs later: its still going but has mixed with my chemistry to create something that is more natural smelling; its really hard to identify the individual notes at this point the best description I can give is a sweet, floral scent with a hint of spice and a calm patchouli...wow...patchouli I ain't mad at you no more!!! The more I wear this perfume, the more I like it. At first I hated it, but now I am contemplating adding it to my repurchase list. Absolutely Irresistible is obviously made of quality ingredients, anyone who wears it can not be accused of wearing "cheap perfume". Skin Type: oily Office safe: yes if applied lightly Potency: HEAVY (1 or 2 sprays is enough) Timing: fall, winter, spring (if your chemistry loves patch maybe summer) Projection: arm's length Longevity: 12hrs Price: about $ 24.00 at FragranceNet Packaging: 8/10 I would have given it a 9 or 10 if the lid actually stayed on the bottle Will I Repurchase: no update: the more I wear this perfume the more I like it; I am now trying it in summer and it is noticable but not to heavy, sweet but not coyling; I am speechless...I may put this on my repurchase list Disclaimer: my experience may be different from your experience based on my skin type, my chemistry, the season, and my personal tastes

Pure seduction... in a tasteful way, not in a raunchy way. A beautiful evening scent (I wear it during the day as well though). It's one of my favourite's so there's no way I would save it exclusively for evenings! To me it's in the same category as Midnight Poison and Cinéma... sexy, elegant, glamorous, BEAUTIFUL. I get a vanilla drydown that I love, although it's not listed in the notes. Maybe it's just my nose? Everything about this perfume is in harmony, the gorgeous bottle, the ads with Liv Tyler, it depicts the fragrance perfectly. Givenchy is one of my favourite fragrance houses, and they most definitely captured the true smell of sensuality in this masterpiece... yes, it's truly a masterpiece in my opinion.

When wearing this scent exclaimations galore+ ecstatic exhaultations "wow! You smell delicious/divine/heavenly!" So there i was, thinking "ok, i got this fragrance thing aaaall figured out(😆)"; Next thing i know, this givenchy scent is not doing well. Now, im frantically bidding for the last overpriced bottles of it on auction sites and purchasing suggested dupe after dupe. No dice. Every dupe recommended is off! Way off! I'm so dismayed! The only one i havent tried is rubino because i cant find it. I keep searching for fragrances with similar top notes, paprika, red berries, mandarin...who knew this would be the scent that would break my heart forever?

I initially didn’t think too highly of this fragrance. I thought it was nothing special. I even had it on my swap list for awhile. However, I am so glad I gave this a second chance! I can see how the paprika can be unpleasant to some people, but all I smell is a beautiful sweetened spice. It is blended well, not at all like the original (yay!). I am wearing this on a cold winter day. I wouldn't wear this in the warmer months (although I would be curious what note would be more prominent then). HTF apparently but worth a try if you like spice and florals :)

I have a mini of this and like it well enough that I bought a 1.7. I really like Absolutely Irresistable much better than Very Irresistable + Irresistable Sensual. This one doesn't have that chemical opening that reminds me of slightly perfumed mosquito spray. No this is nice. I get creamy jasmine on opening and a slight powdery scent. I did think the bottom notes would be more intense and slightly woodsy but I am not getting that on my skin. Love it! I love this so much I want to take a bath in it. So, I bought the bath gel and body veil. I am hooked!

I just found a very old sample of this, and now I'm gutted they discontinued it - this is an utterly stunning scent! I'm not a massive florals lover, but this really does have a massive slightly spicy red berries opening that dries down to the most seductive blend, I spent the whole afternoon wrist sniffing, and even dug the packaging out the bin to try and squeeze a little more out of it. Yes the sillage and longevity aren't that, but for this one, it is good enough that I will pay up for an original bottle. Just stunning!!! Truly!!!

I bought a big bottle last week! i am in love! this is so spicy and warm, it is sexy and cozy!!! i get the red berries for a long time , then the wonderful jasmine...and what is the spicy thing just pimento??? no way...maybe it has something else that we don ́t know! anyway i am in love it reminds me a little bit of Ciara wich i love but always wanted it to be more glamorous...now i got what i wanted :)))

my baby got discontinued before i get to purchase her, such a shame! good thing i got my hands on my auntie's og bottle so she can be with me forevermore... this smells so nostalgic, so vintage yet so sexy. i just can't get enough of her. If anyone is willing to sell me their bottle, (full or half-full doesn't really matter) then I'm willing to buy. Just pm me!

This is a great Givenchy perfume with a floral, woody scent about the bottle. Also a essenctial part is the jasmine which makes this a stunning scent. I only have a sample size little packet rather than bottle, but when I first smelt it i thought, "Whats not to like about this!?! Why haven't I bought this yet!?!" So I rate this (out of 5) a 5!!

I blindbought Absolutely Irrésistible (a roll-on) and I really like it! Much better that the original Very Irrésistible which I had a while ago. Absolutely Irrésistible is a soft and sweet floral yet it has a nice punch from the pimento. Great fragrance!

This is a truly "absolutely irresistible" perfume...Everybody in my office is talking wonders of it, men and women, so when I wear it I get a lot of compliments. Absolutely love the perfume...easy going and distinctive at the same time!

This is the perfume I put on when I want to feel a little sexy.. and thats just how I'd describe the smell, its sexy. Floral, yet edgy, it stands out from my usual collection, but thats why I like it.

Have a 10ml roller ball of this, and it is absolutely delicious! I suspect it smells better being applied that way as oppose to the spray as well.

i was in love with this till i figured out that it has no sillage on me :( is there anyone else who has sillage problem about this edp?

This perfume was in my wish list, I just try it now I really love , it's really nice and seductive it's absolutely irresistible.

Very sensual, soft, and sexy! This is my going out perfume and I feel so sexy when I wear it. Get lots of compliments! :)

this smells gorgeous. i LOVE it. it has a balanced smell that i can't imagine i can layer it with another fragrance.

This is absolutely gorgeus, feminine and original. Absolute bliss! And oh, so damn French !
