Fruity Notes: Blackcurrant Bud, Mimosa, Cocoa, Vanilla. An uplifting creation from Goutal’s collection of opulent fragrances, Eau de Charlotte is described by Annick Goutal to be an ‘impish ode to joy and mischief’. Created in 1982, the alluring scent is named after the late perfumer’s step-daughter, and pays homage to her love of Blackcurrant Jam with its fruity opening. Floral at the heart with powdery hues of Mimosa, the eau de toilette settles into a backdrop of delicious Cocoa and Vanilla, a continuation of the scent’s honeyed notes. Bottled in an elegant glass flacon, evocative of a crystal chandelier, Eau de Charlotte gently unfolds, unleashing reminiscent summertime nuances with each level.
