Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Le Parfum

Mostly burnt sugar, sticky and rich. Underneath that, creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full.

It opens on jasmine, moves through caramel and salt, and settles on vanilla.

• jasmine: a rich white flower, heady and full. Up close it turns slightly animal, which some people love and others find too much
• caramel: burnt sugar, sticky and rich

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.
