Givenchy: Ange ou Demon, Eau de Parfum

Launched: 2006 Classification: Oriental floral I got this as a present 2 years ago and after a couple of uses I left it untouched. The memories now fading, and in the name of science and dooyoo, I wanted to give it a try again and see if my feelings have changed towards this scent since. This well-marketed perfume's very own name which makes it so tempting to try... The mystery of the woman is essentialised in Ange ou Demon: who is she? light or darkness... angel or evil...? Only she knows... The bottle This dual theme is nicely represented by a chiselled raindrop shaped bottle which at the bottom starts out as almost ...  Read the complete review

I bought this perfume about two years ago now after having been given some House of Fraser gift vouchers for a birthday and when I went in there it had just been launched and there were sales girls all over the place offering a spray to try it out so eventually I gave in and tried it. I liked it so I impulsively bought it though now I do try and test scents out on at least two separate occasion to be sure I like it enough to use if for a long time after. The packaging for this is great. It is a pentahedron shaped glass bottle which is clear glass at the bottom but as you move up the bottle and on towards the lid it turns black so it plays on the name of the ...  Read the complete review

I received some free samples of Ange ou Demon Eau de Parfum when I placed an order with Debenhams online. I am not usually one to wear perfumes as I generally find them much too strong and overpowering. However, I do love Givenchy makeup so I decided to give the perfume a go. This perfume is meant to have an Oriental Floral scent, according to Givenchy. As I don't know much about perfumes I can't really comment on the accuracy of this description. I find it very difficult to describe scents but this one smells certainly quite flowery without being too sickly sweet or old ladyish! It has strong notes of lily in the fragrance which is very pleasant. ...  Read the complete review

I first smelt Ange Ou Demon by Givenchy about 2 years ago when it first came out which was summer 2006,and I fell in love with it.Its my favourite kind of fragrance which is a strong oriental perfume that lasts a long time.When you first spray this perfume it smells a bit fruity and very strong.You can definately smell orange/mandarin in there.once it is dry,the fragrance warms up and smells quite floral and oriental with notes of lily and ylang-ylang..The lily is magnified with oakwood which gives it that warm rich fragrance. The bottle design is a play on the name meaning angel or demon as it is half white half black in a teardrop shape that is supposed to ...  Read the complete review

I didn't think I would like this perfume as I first thought that the strong tones were very overpowering, however I absolutely fell in love with it. It is quite sweet, although not fruity and light - it's more of a rich, fragrant sweet (it reminds me of wealthy French people!). I think the name (Ange ou Demon) is quite appropriate as well. This perfume does have two sides to it, and I tend to just wear it to go out in, as it is quite heavy for daywear, especially with it being an Eau de Parfum. It lingers on you for hours and it is always pleasant to get a "whiff" every now and then. The tear drop shaped bottle is really elegant, and I think that the ...  Read the complete review
