Goutal Myrrhe Ardente is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2007, created by Isabelle Doyen and Camille Goutal. Myrrhe Ardente opens with Tonka Bean, Benzoin, and Myrrh, settles into a heart of Vetiver and Guaiac Wood, and dries down to a base of Beeswax. Goutal's Myrrhe Ardente carries a Favourite verdict, an amber-led wear.

This discontinued Goutal gem is a truly polarising beast. For some, it's a comforting, unique resinous dream; for others, a medicinal root beer-scented flop that vanishes too quickly. Hunt it down if you dare, but don't expect a crowd-pleaser.

About

Myrrhe Ardente opens with a rich, dark sweetness from myrrh, benzoin, and tonka bean, evoking old-fashioned herbal liqueurs or spiced root beer. As it develops, guaiac wood and vetiver introduce a drier, smoky woodiness, while beeswax adds a creamy, warm texture. The drydown settles into a balsamic glow, with hints of vanilla and a unique interplay of sweet and bitter facets.
