    Each persons skin chemistry is different. Some will love perfume, but it might not work same for others. I hope this perfume work better for other people.
    First 10 minutes it was terrible synthetic green, bleach, baby wipes, something worse than that. I got association with bathroom. I waited for it to develop. After 10 minutes it was sharp, soapy synthetic “green” that resembled lily of valley. After about half hour I started to sneezed because of this perfume. Maybe weird, but from distance it smelled like sweaty feet. After about 2 hours it became bit sweeter and I could smell cloth washing powder. After about 4 hours I smelled my wrist and got association with grandmother in her long sleeping dress and hat with fringes. Unfortunately. All that said we have in garden Lilly of valley and I love how it smells, but in perfumes that can be different.

    This fragrance takes some time to settle into its real aroma. Initially it seemed very watery and all I could sense was the Lily-of-the-valley, but in a while the watery note went away, the berry note came through and the composition got a little more complex. Lilly-of-the-valley is without a doubt the dominant note still. Annick Goutal does indeed have her own style – the flower-based fragrances are very real and true to the actual flower, the aromas are simple, but seem natural. It is not always something I would wear daily, but I do appreciate the originality of her work!

    This is really disgusting to me as it smells like raw cabbage juice. If any of you have tried cabbage juice before, then you would be familiar with the taste and smell which are totally different from cooked cabbage. After trying out cabbage juice once, I vowed not to drink any of it again as it nearly made me puke. This perfume brings back that memory and triggers the nausea feeling. I received this as a gift and quickly swapped it out. Now I will run far far away from any perfumes with Lily of the Valley as its dominant note. Never knew it was so disgusting!

    Fragrance Review For Le Muguet Annick Goutal
    Notes: benzoin lily-of-the-valley red berries rose
    I have come to love the Annick Goutal fragrance line. They create very beautiful floral fragrances, citrus fragrances and chypres woodsy fragrances, every thing that I love about perfumery, without being over the top and or complex. They are simple but very well-made French perfumes of high caliber. Le Muguet or Lily of the Valley is a fruited lily of the valley floral fragrance. Yes the lily of the valley is there and fortunately it opens with realistic green floral accords of lily of the valley. But it is not a soliflore and does not even try to evoke Diorissimo which is a supreme lily of the valley perfume. This is a sweet fragrance of flowers and berry. The red berries are also paired with red roses. This is not as much a rose perfume as it is lily of the valley in keeping with it’s moniker but the rose is very detectable. Sweet fruity red berry red rose combo. The benzoin appears at the end of the fragrance’s life. It warms up and becomes richer, creamier, deeper and smokier. The benzoin does all of that. It serves as a base note where there are no base notes. This frag does not follow the top middle heart formula structure. But the benzoin is huge enough on it’s own to take the place of typical base notes like musk, amber, cedar, vetiver, incense and sandalwood. This frag starts off like a sweet green floral and then turns into a red berry and finally a warm incense. Very nice. It smells good and wears best in spring and summer as an evening cologne. Because of that benzoin the fragrance becomes aromatic and the kind I associate with evenings. Beautiful.

    The first few spurts were harsh, very bathroom freshener-like- and I was afraid I would have to write this one off- but this unpleasantness quickly fades, and the fragrance warms into a fresh and lovely, realistic lily of the valley, with soft berry accents-
    Very nice longevity, too!
    Lovely spring fragrance…

    After the harsh green opening quickly fades into the background, Annick Goutal Le Muguet remains a true-to-life lily of the valley on me. And it’s Oh So Lovely!
    The sweetness is delicate, yet its creamy, somewhat chalky texture renders a certain opacity to the fragrance. It wears like a light-weight velvet on the skin, with a hint of verdancy keeping the scent close to nature. Interestingly, I also occasionally get a soja milk note. Not what I’d expect in a soliflore, but I do find it very intriguing.
    The sillage is soft and the longevity is around 5 to 6 hours. Although I’d suggest against blind buying due to the sharp opening and the soja milk association, I’d definitely recommend it to those who are looking for a realistic lily of the valley soliflore.

    AT LAST! I’ve been searching forever for a muguet scent that smells like the actual fresh flower. Lily of the Valley has been my favorite flower as far back as I can remember, in fact I believe it to be the first scent I can remember. A profusion of them grew in the yard of my childhood home, and every spring I’d eagerly await the first green shoots. There is nothing like the freshly opened flower, after that they begin to lose some of their magic. I’ve tried many muguet scents, some very lovely (Diorissimo vintage), some nice, some ok, and some bad – but this, (at least for me) smells like the real thing. I get absolutely none of the usual synthetic scent AT ALL. I’ll never be without this perfume now, even if I go broke buying up every bottle I can find!

    Boiled cabbage to begin with. George Michaels sings “You gotta have faith, the faith, the faith” in my ear. But I struggle with faith every which way.
    “Oh no, Vegetal, stultifying” in the way that Jean Claude Ellena was dumped on for Apres La Mousson; this is considerably more intense, I’m a fan of APLM, I don’t mind it a bit brackish, I can wait for the dry down, but seven minutes goes by and I still don’t feel it, and then it clears. Isabelle Doyene does this with more than one AG, before it steers into calm waters.
    Yes, theres Convallaria majalis, the lily of the valley, a rhizomatous perennial that will not grow in my Zone 9 garden, although I grew it successfully at 45 degrees South (we’re talking Southern Hemisphere now)
    I couldn’t find the rose the first time I wore it, shock maybe; it appeared the following wearing along with a powdery fixative smell that I associate with a cornstarch talcum worn by very elderly people. There’s Narcissus at play here, I think, scent brain says indoles. At the dry down it’s lovely and it becomes ultra fresh, which is amazing considering the beginning but will you buy it? Fleur de Cristal by Lalique is a beautiful alternative, albeit a little synthetic, and nothing has knocked Diorrissimo off its perch.
    Is AG’s LOTV sweet, as some have commented? I don’t find Le Muguet at all sweet, better on skin than on clothes, so maybe don’t spray garments.
    Spring approaches here. I find Cristalle EDP to be my perfect spring fragrance and this won’t make me change
    EDIT: I first wore Le Muguet when the weather was cold and damp, when the climate affected the perfume to its detriment. In warmer, drier weather the perfume is very loveable and if I sounded harsh, then I am sorry. It is vegetal at the beginning but delightful in the spring like weather that it represents. I own about eight Goutals and this is now quite a favourite

    This is a very floral, singularly muguet scent! So unless you love Lily of Valley then it will have no appeal. I mix it with some Amber scents to give it some depth but other times it’s nice to wear something so simple. It also stands out which is great because the perceptually the scent lasts and carries longer than generic perfumes but not-so-great if people around you don’t like the flowers.

    So fresh and realistic!!! My husband doesn’t like perfumes, but when he smelled it for the first time he said that smells exactly like lily-of-the-valley!

    I love lily of the valley and have it growing in my backyard. I will always pick a few flowers and place them in a small vase by my bed. I am aware that lily of the valley in fragrances is not from the lily of the valley flower. As far as Annick Goutal’s La Muguet, on first spray, my experience was: is this lily of the valley? Do I like the scent? Did I spray too much? I was not sure. After a few minutes the scent became more balanced and steady in its aroma. After a few hours it was more of a lily of the valley fragrance. I my opinion, the Rose is very strong in this fragrance. It is more of a rose-lily of the valley fragrance. I am wearing it now in December and it works well. I think it is more a spring-early summer scent, because that is when the lily of the valley bloom in my garden. If I could remove my seasonal prejudice, I would say this fragrance can be worn all year.

    Le Muguet by Annick Goutal is one of those fragrances that I feel so-so about. Occasionally I catch a waft of it and enjoy its freshness, however most of the time I find it a little too strong.
    I usually enjoy lily of the valley and its Spring-like properties. Le Muguet is most definitely fresh and bright on the skin, yet I find its greeness and touch of sugaryness annoying. In fact, I’ll agree with the other reviewers, perhaps it is the benzoin accord that makes this fragrance’s opening so harsh and chemical.
    The heart turns the lily of the valley note, sweet, soapy and clean. It actually smells quite lovely on the skin, like you’ve just stepped out of the shower. I wouldn’t call the sillage intimate at this stage, but it certainly isn’t as loud as the top notes.
    I can’t say that I’m a big fan of Annick Goutal’s so-called soliflores. The only one I’ve enjoyed so far is La Violette. I expected a lot from this particular scent, however Diorissimo still reigns supreme as the best interpretation of lily of the valley.
    I must admit that the bottle is really beautiful, with a striking aqua-marine ribbon. It caught my eye the moment I entered the store. I think this whole range has been re-released, hence the reason why this once discontinued fragrance has recently reappeared.
    The drydown is the best bit in my humble opinion. The lily of the valley is much smoother, with a light and delicate woodsiness cancelling out that somewhat sharp greeness. I may have enjoyed this fragrance more if the top notes were as good as the base notes.
    On a more positive note, this EDT lasts extremely well, which is rare for a Annick Goutal. I tentatively recommend Le Muguet for both Spring and Summer, and urge people to muster up the courage to experience the drydown even if the top notes encourage you to scrub.

    This is a pretty and very cheerful scent. At first I thought it was a bit too much, but it soon settles down to a more demure version of itself. Later it turns a little soapy, but not in an unpleasant way. To me it smells very much like real lily of the valley and I didn’t notice the red berries. It is not fruity at all (which to me is a good thing).
    Pleasant as it is, it doesn’t keep my interest and at one point I was almost annoyed by its cheerful and giggly personality.

    A very clean and true lilly of the valley. I get many compliments (from women mainly)when I wear it in the spring.

    Le Muguet is a sweet scent, and sends out playful vibes. Le Muguet gives out the playful pheromone to do so. The newly scent of spring love creates a mood of romantic poetry, as though the wearer is being serenaded with words of romance from the smells released from the fragrance. The sent of freshly blossomed mountain flowers with a twist of spice and joyful, playful youth, means this is the perfume to wear if you feel in the mood for sunshine, romance and love.

    Lilly of the Valley in a bottle ! One can experience pure, deep, unfettered, unadulterated, healthy, potent little blossoms-bursting out of every drop! The Benzoin is confusing, strange, chemical like, and even repulsive in the opening, but it quickly disolves without a trace and provides nice fixation for the Lily of The Valley. I could not sense any red berries. Perhaps the Red Berries are hidden in the perfume, just to cut the heavy airs of such strong Lily of the Valley and dizzying Benzoin.

    AG floral scents are generally true to the esscence of their namesakes and this is no exception. After the initial blast of benzoine (assume that’s the slightly rubbery smell) comes the scent of fresh lilies of the valley and a touch of fresh greens. As I inhale I can see the flowers, they practically grow wild in our yard. It’s a must-have for lovers of the flower, but as a lover of roses, I prefer Rose Absolue.
