The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Le Temps des Rêves by Goutal, launched in 2020 and created by Julie Massé and Mathieu Nardin, is a composition that blends citrus freshness with aromatic warmth. It opens with the brightness of neroli and bergamot before transitioning to a heart of orange blossom and floral notes, grounded by sandalwood and bran. This fragrance captures the essence of Goutal’s French elegance, offering a balance between crisp citrus and enveloping woody tones.

How to wear it

Le Temps des Rêves has a bright opening that fades within two hours. To ensure you capture its full warmth, apply it to pulse points just before leaving home. It reads best close to skin rather than diffusing widely.
