Parisian perfumery Goutal’s Heure Exquise captures the scene of an iris garden in full bloom as the sun sets and darkness sweeps across the land, illuminated only by the moon.Enraptured by its enchanting violet hues and delicate powdery trail, Annick Goutal created Heure Exquise to evoke the notion of passing time. An introduction of rose blends seamlessly into a celebration of the iris’ multifaceted layers: slightly honeyed, earthy and petrichor-like. A dry-down of sandalwood creeps in, setting a woody tone that lingers on the skin.Bottled in an elegant, Art Deco-inspired flacon with ribbed detailing, the floral perfume engulfs the wearer in a haze of floral whispers.
