About This Perfume
Think powdery rose tea with green pear: that is Goutal Ce Soir Ou Jamais. It opens with pear, moves into Turkish rose and settles on ambrette seed. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum works across all four seasons and is a daytime scent. It suits date nights. Released in 1999.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and romantic for date nights.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $133.

Opening and drydown of the picks
Goutal Petite Cherie (1998) comes across as fresh ripe peach and pear with soft rose musk, with pear and grass at the start and white musk and vanilla at the base. Goutal Nuit et Confidences (Eau de Parfum, 2017) reads as creamy vanilla cream with smoky incense and sweet spice, opening on Italian bergamot and Italian mandarin orange and drying down to Bourbon vanilla, musk and Brazilian tonka bean. Goutal Eau d'Hadrien (1980) opens with citron and Sicilian lemon and ends on cypress, musk and ylang-ylang; overall it reads as bright lemon and citron over a green citrus garden.
