Jean Paul GaultierScandal By Night
Dark, syrupy fruit cutting through a cold garden of night-blooming flowers
Sticky honey and black cherry lead the charge, immediately drying into a dense, floral core of tuberose and orange blossom. It is thick and syrupy, anchored by a base of deep vanilla, tonka bean, and earthy patchouli that grounds the sweetness. This is an assertive presence; the sillage is heavy, clinging to fabrics and skin for hours after the sun goes down. A woody finish of sandalwood and amberwood keeps the floral profile sharp and provocative, rather than soft, making it a demanding companion for long, ambient evenings.
