Goutal Tenue de Soiree is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Mathieu Nardin. Tenue de Soiree opens with Bergamot and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Patchouli, and Caramel. Goutal's Tenue de Soiree carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This "fruitchouli" is a divisive one. There's a clear 'love it or hate it' vibe, with many finding it classy and addictive, while others recoil from a synthetic, dated feel. It aims for refined elegance but lands differently on everyone's skin.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Tenue de Soiree opens with a tart, juicy burst of blackcurrant and bergamot, rapidly softening into a sophisticated heart of powdery iris and delicate rose. A subtle sweetness from caramel and a hint of intriguing leather then emerge, grounded by earthy patchouli and a clean musk. It's a journey from fruity brightness to a warm, elegant dry-down.
