Organza by Givenchy c1996

Launched in October 1996 at the Paris spring Pret-a-Porter fashion event, Organza by Givenchy made its U.S. debut in 1997. This fragrance marked a significant release for Givenchy, a name synonymous with refined elegance and Parisian glamour. Founded by Hubert de Givenchy in 1952, the Givenchy brand became world-renowned for blending sophistication with artistic design, producing not only haute couture clothing but also fragrances that embodied luxury. Givenchy's decision to name this fragrance Organza speaks to the essence of the brand: a fabric known for its light, ethereal quality, often used in evening wear and bridal couture, aligning seamlessly with the fashion house's pursuit of grace and elegance. The name Organza draws from French origins and is pronounced “or-GAN-zuh.” This gauzy fabric conjures images of flowing gowns, light yet structured elegance, and evokes emotions of timeless beauty and sophistication.

For many women in the 1990s, the name Organza would likely resonate with feelings of romantic femininity. The word itself suggests delicacy and sophistication, perhaps evoking thoughts of soft fabrics against the skin, airy and elegant. In the mid-90s, a time marked by both a fascination with minimalism and a reawakening of romantic styles in fashion, Organza could be seen as an invitation to embrace a sensual femininity. This perfume, inspired by the fabric, represents a fragrance interpretation of the fabric’s tactile luxury, designed to feel like an “invisible veil” of scent.
