Goutal Eau d'Hadrien is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1980, created by Annick Goutal and Francis Camail. Eau d'Hadrien opens with Citron, Lemon, and Grapefruit, settles into a heart of Mandarin and Aldehydes, and dries down to a base of Cypress and Ylang-Ylang. Goutal's Eau d'Hadrien carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A divisive citrus bomb: love it or hate it, Eau d'Hadrien is renowned for its hyper-realistic lemon. It's gloriously fresh and effortlessly chic, if you don't mind an ephemeral whisper of a scent. Expect a battle over its 'old-fashioned' character.

About

Step into a sun-drenched Mediterranean grove with Eau d'Hadrien. It bursts open with an electrifying, almost pungent squeeze of pure lemon and zesty grapefruit, a truly photorealistic citrus without a hint of sweetness. This bright, sparkling quality is amplified by clean aldehydes, soon settling into a subtle, aromatic heart where herbaceous cypress and a whisper of creamy ylang-ylang add depth and a touch of refinement to the effervescent citrus. It’s fresh, natural, and beautifully balanced.
