6 Best Smelling Annick Goutal Perfumes

Annick Goutal is a French designer with a long history of putting out fragrances, that often are related to a story or an experience in some part of the world. There are dozens of these perfumes for women, men, and unisex. As such, it can be quite difficult to narrow down all of these choices, and know where to start. No worries, in this post I have chopped it down to six scents for women, which could be considered the best of the bunch.

What are the Top Annick Goutal Fragrances?

Fresh Casual Fragrance

ANNICK GOUTAL Petite Cherie Eau de Parfum, 1.7 Ounce– A blend of peach and pear at the top, with a rose note, and freshly cut grass. Petite Cherie is fresh and juicy, with a green dewy background from the prominent grass note.

It is a very clean scent, which is led by the pear, and flanked by the sweet peach. As it dries down, the rose and musk note come out more, but are never all that heavy. This one is upbeat, youthful, and a nice daily wear for spring/summer.

The pear and the grass give Petite Cherie an interesting combination, with a crisp and dewy finish. This isn’t an overly complex fragrance, but one that does have a upbeat personality, that is great on an early spring day.

Best Smelling Floral Goutal

UN MATIN D’ORAGE Eau De Toilette Spray, 3.4 Ounce– According to Goutal, Un Matin d’Orage, is supposed to be based on being in a Japanese garden following a rain storm. It is dominated by notes of magnolia and tuberose, which do give off that white floral aroma, and it does have a green watery scent that hangs in the air.

Close enough to the humid air after a rain. There is also a soft oriental spice of myrrh and a dash of sweet vanilla. Mostly, it is floral and green, with some herbal spice qualities. Straightforward, but a gorgeous wear for floral lovers.

This is another one like Ninfeo Mio, further down below, that delivers a natural and garden-like kind of perfume. I like that one better, in that vein, but this is probably the better choice for those who want a floral leaning scent. Clean, with a dewy and at times, airy quality.

Most Popular

Songes By Annick Goutal For Women. Eau De Toilette Spray 3.4 OZ– A very floral scent, namely from tropical flowers such as frangipani and tiare, with vanilla and light spice from cumin and cinnamon. Songes opens up with those tropical flowers and along the way is joined by plenty of jasmine and a bit of ylang ylang.

It dries down with a creamy soft finish of mainly the frangipani, jasmine, and vanilla notes. A great and beautiful warm weather wear, which evokes thoughts of distant tropical islands.

Best Natural Green-ish Scent

Annick Goutal Ninfeo Mio Women’s Eau de Parfum Spray, 3.4 Ounce– This is another of the unisex entries on this list. Ninfeo Mio blends bright and juicy citrus notes with fig, and woody/floral base ingredients.

Very green like being in a garden or park with a beautiful fig note leading the way and catching wafts of the lemon throughout. Solid performance and the sillage is not too heavy. Definitely a nice unisex to wear on warm days.

This isn’t a wear that is going to please everyone, but it is absolutely one to check out for those who love naturalistic and fresh sorts of perfumes. Ninfeo Mio is definitely one of the best by Annick Goutal, with the case that it is the top choice, not being that difficult to prove.

Top Summertime Fragrance

Annick Goutal 256550 Eau D’hadrien Eau De Toilette Spray, 3.4 Ounce– This is a unisex fragrance which uses plenty of different types of citrus with a cypress wood base and a touch of ylang ylang. You have citron, Sicilian lemon, grapefruit, mandarin orange, and bergamot.

Yep, so expect a great summer’s day full of juicy fruit, and lovely zest. The blend comes off a tart, and then, becomes sweeter as it moves along. The cypress adds some needed depth and a nice green woodsy background.

This one is light, as is typical with citrus based scents, but really darn good. Consider getting the EDP version, for a bit more strength.

Most Unique Fragrance

EAU DE CHARLOTTE Eau De Toilette Spray, 3.4 Ounce– Eau de Charlotte is a wonderfully unique yet simple blend of floral notes, vanilla, and cacao. You get a strong mimosa in the start of the perfume, then the floral aroma shifts more to lily of the valley.

Meanwhile, the clean and sweet undertones, create a powdery and ever so slight gourmand scent. This one is light with decent performance and a cheerful disposition. Eau de Charlotte isn’t a heavy fragrance, by any means, but it does have a lot of depth.

Multi-faceted, might be a better way of putting it. The different floral notes, get their own times to shine. Then, there are the periods of vanilla sweetness, musk, and a powdery smelling cacao.

Best Men's Colognes

Best Men’s Colognes started back in 2013, as a way to share my learning experiences with different fragrances, as I dove head first into the hobby. Since then, I have written hundreds of reviews and other pages about perfumes and colognes.
