From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Eaudemoiselle and Dance with Givenchy will both become available this spring.
While both fragrances seem to be targeted at younger women, the advertising and packaging makes reference to the brand's history: founder Hubert de Givenchy's muse Audrey Hepburn was a ballet dancer, and Eaudemoiselle is meant to embody his aristocratic identity.
It is a popular strategy of luxury labels right now to revisit their roots in order to differentiate themselves: Chanel, among others, has been a master of this strategy, connecting almost all its launches to its founder Coco and her inspirations.
Eaudemoiselle, the more 'couture' and complex of the two, will be rose-based with additional notes of mandarin, lemon, Japanese basil, ylang ylang, orange blossom, cedar wood, ambrette seed, tonka bean and musk. Dance with Givenchy will be composed of partially the same elements, but with the addition of apple.
Both Givenchy scents will be priced at around €60. The brand's new releases will precede a big fragrance launch by another French luxury brand: Hermès is planning for Voyage to hit stores from April.
