Kilian Forbidden Games Eau de Parfum teases with a honey-dripped peach dusted in warm cinnamon before unfolding into a lush bouquet of Bulgarian rose, jasmine, and geranium, then melting into a sensual trail of vanilla, opoponax, and honey that clings to skin with decadent ease. It is a polished, fruity gourmand that feels plush, inviting, and unmistakably glamorous for date nights and signature wear.

Story and Positioning
Forbidden Games began in the In the Garden of Good and Evil trio, a luxe take on the idea of temptation and forbidden fruit, and today sits in The Narcotics family as a floriental gourmand built for addictive allure. The brand’s own story spotlights a honey-drenched peach and cinnamon from Laos over a velvety floral heart, finished with Madagascar vanilla, Laotian honey, and resinous opoponax for a mouthwatering glow. If you are drawn to decadent fruity florals with a silky honeyed finish, this is a refined reference that bridges playful sweetness and couture polish.
Bottle and Design
The refillable white lacquer flacon carries a hand-engraved metal nameplate and features the signature sides engraved with the Achilles shield motif for a collectible, display-worthy presence. Early editions were presented in a white enamel clutch adorned with a gold serpent that can double as an evening bag, a nod to the theme of temptation.
