Why It's Escentual:

Created by master perfumer Mathieu Nardin, Tenue de Soirée—which translates to "evening dress"—captures the thrill of getting ready for a night out in Paris, radiating flair, spontaneity, and glamour.

Housed in the Maison’s updated clear bottle with refined gadroons—inspired by Art Deco and topped with a gold cap—it pays homage to Annick Goutal’s background as an antique dealer. For this fragrance, it is adorned with a large, fluffy purple pom-pom, adding a touch of bold, tactile luxury to symbolise generosity. Tenue de Soirée has an intoxicating, lingering presence that comes into its own during cool evening air, making it the ultimate accessory for date nights and special occasions

The Best Way To Use It:

We also recommend the following perfume tips:

• Target areas where the blood vessels are closest to the skin, allowing the fragrance to emanate. Common pulse points include the wrists, neck, behind the ears, and inner elbows.
• Resist the urge to rub your wrists together after applying perfume. This can break down the fragrance molecules and alter the scent.
• Hold the perfume bottle about 6–8 inches away from your skin when spraying. This ensures a more even distribution of the fragrance.
• Keep your perfume in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations. This helps maintain the integrity of the fragrance.
• If your perfume fades throughout the day, consider reapplying to pulse points or areas where your skin is warm.
