The story behind the bottle.
Les Nuits d'Hadrien by Goutal, launched in 2003 and created by perfumers Camille Goutal and Isabelle Doyen, is a composition that captures the essence of crisp, fresh mornings with a subtle warmth that lingers throughout the day. The fragrance opens with green mandarin and Sicilian bergamot, creating an invigorating freshness that transitions into a heart of basil and ylang-ylang, adding depth without overpowering the initial brightness. As it settles, patchouli and sandalwood bring a grounding warmth, supported by musk and vanilla.
Apply two sprays for a balanced blend that allows the fragrance to evolve naturally throughout the day. The citrus opening is bright but fades within an hour, so it's best to reapply if you want to maintain its initial freshness.
