The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1996, Grand Amour by Goutal is a Floral Green fragrance that embodies the elegance and sophistication of its French heritage. Created by Annick Goutal and Isabelle Doyen, it opens with vibrant white floral notes like hyacinth and lily, complemented by the subtle freshness of honeysuckle and Turkish rose. The heart melds into a powdery warmth of jasmine and mimosa, while the base offers an earthy depth with leather, myrrh, amber, musk, and vanilla. Grand Amour captures the essence of refined femininity, blending delicate florals with comforting spiciness.
Apply Grand Amour with two sprays to your pulse points. The vibrant top notes will announce themselves immediately but fade within an hour, making way for the powdery heart and earthy base that settle into a warm embrace throughout the day.
