Houbigant 2023 EDP
Pivoine Souveraine
Houbigant Pivoine Souveraine is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Pivoine Souveraine opens with Clementine, Pink Pepper, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Tea. Houbigant's Pivoine Souveraine carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.
This fresh floral number is surprisingly polarising. Some find it generic and uninspired, while others are absolutely smitten by its luminous, airy elegance. It truly shines in warmer weather, making it the perfect understated scent for celebratory occasions.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.
