The Campaign...
The original muse behind the first bottle Givenchy’s L’Interdit Eau de Parfum was Audrey Hepburn. Back in the day, the iconic actress wore the fragrance before it was available for public consumption. Rooney Mara, the star of films The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Nightmare Alley and Carol, took over the role as the newest face for the L’Interdit franchise in 2018 and fronts the brand’s latest campaign for L’Interdit Rouge Ultime. It’s a perfect synergy for the brand, as she embodies a modern-day Hepburn.
The fragrance campaign video entices the audience as we follow a red-lipped Mara (dressed in couture Givenchy, of course) down into a French underground train station, which leads to an exclusive underground L’Interdict party, only for her to return when the sun rises, sans lipstick.
We don’t blame you for being tempted either. Shop your bottle now.
