The 3 worth trying, ranked
Similarity is the owners' vote plus the note overlap. Price is a typical US bottle price when the house publishes one. Bars are each match's own accords.
Where it differs: Marketed as amber florals with only a whisper of spiced citrus, so the ginger and blood orange opening is softer than in the Givenchy.
Where it differs: Leans closer to the original L'Interdit: a fruity, musky white floral that is creamier and airier, without the ginger and pimento heat of Rouge.
