Isabelle Doyen is a perfumer with a rare sensitivity to nuance. A quiet alchemist who translates emotions into scent. Trained at ISIPCA, she found her creative home early on with Annick Goutal , with whom she would form one of the closest collaborations in perfumery history. Together they created poetic icons like Petite Chérie and Eau d'Hadrien , fragrances that have defined the soul of the Goutal house.
After Annick's passing, Isabelle remained true to that legacy, now in close dialogue with Camille Goutal , Annick's daughter. Her style is transparent and melodic. She works like a composer who values silence as much as sound. Flowers, fruits, and woods never become heavy in her work, but breathe light and space. She draws inspiration from nature, the sea, and the seasons, always seeking the scent of balance. For Isabelle Doyen, perfumery is a form of meditation: a silent art in which simplicity opens the way to depth.
