Jason Ankeny of allmusic admired the band for successfully fusing a number of genres, such as psychedelic and noise rock. He awarded Chartreuse Toulouse four and a half out of five stars, while mentioning Flatula's lyrics as being a detractor. Ira Robbins of the Trouser Press noted that while it does lose momentum, the album is a "psychedelic trip" and "one of Tragic Mulatto's great adventures."
