Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau Paradise Garden

Mostly like crushed leaves and cut grass, sharp with a bitter edge. Underneath that, creamy and sweet, with a suncream quality.

It opens on green notes, watery notes and mint, moves through coconut, fig and salt, and settles on tonka bean and sandalwood.

• green notes: a general greenness rather than any one leaf or herb
• watery notes: a general wet freshness, invented rather than extracted

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
