This exquisite perfume water, crafted by Annick Goutal and Francis Camail, embodies a delicate elegance and classic features. The creators were inspired by Marguerite Yourcenar's novel, "Memoirs of Hadrian", aiming to encapsulate the thrilling moments of the fascinating book so they could be relived over and over again.
Eau D'Hadrien is infused with the light breeze of refreshing air and the warm Mediterranean sun, yet it miraculously blends two seemingly incompatible elements - cold and warmth.
The fragrance composition embraces a light, misty hue of aromatic grass, clarity, and a gentle bitterness. Citrus notes burst forth with joy and freshness, gradually warmed by an enchanting woody aura. Ripe fruits warmed by the sun, juicy grapefruit, and Sicilian lemon meld with the subtle nuances of cypress and citron, bringing lightness and creating harmony. With each note, the scent evokes the thrilling moments of life, as if unfolding in a heartwarming romantic novella.
Reviews about Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien
The fragrance itself is very pleasant, HOWEVER, it is not long-lasting at all.
The scent is different from what I'm used to. I bought it without testing it, just in case. The first impression is vibrant citrus notes - lemon, mandarin, and orange, followed by wood, possibly cypress, also very vibrant middle notes. I quickly got used to it, the scent is vibrant but calm, fresh. The packaging is unique - native details. And it has a large volume - not convenient for traveling.
The scent is very fresh and light, with distinct notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit). There is also a hint of pine (cypress) and a delicate sweetness of mandarin. The fragrance is long-lasting and leaves a beautiful trail, but only in the perfume form. I really liked it!
