Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Absolu

Mostly a big creamy white flower, buttery and close to overwhelming. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on tuberose, moves through black fig, and settles on sandalwood.

• tuberose: a big creamy white flower, buttery and close to overwhelming
• sandalwood: creamy, almost milky wood. Softer and rounder than cedar

It lasts well and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

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