Jean Paul Gaultier, enfant terrible of fashion, was inspired for this ultra-feminine, voluptuous love potion from the jars, powder pots and nail varnish vials on his beloved grandmother’s dresser. Thankfully the sweet, naughty, vanilla-rich floriental fragrance with its rum-like top notes smells nothing like the stuff we put on our nails! Instead it’s a come-hither call with powdery florals that diffuse their magic for hours on end. Wear it in the evenings when its message can be better appreciated. To celebrate his couture roots, Gaultier paid homage via the dummy bottle to legendary designer Elsa Schiaparelli’s seamstress torso flacon for her Schocking perfume. The bottle is further encased in a tin-can which is “sliced” into bracelets and the whole packaged in a box reminiscent of cargo. Groovy! Created: 1993 Type: Oriental - Floral Notes Top Note: Bergamot, Lemon, Mandarin, Orange Blossom Middle Note: Tuberose, Jasmine, Ginger, Ylang-Ylang Base Note: Cedar, Amber, Vanilla, Cinnamon Recommended Use Casual |

Voluptuous, curvaceous, sensual...Jean Paul Gaultier, enfant terrible of fashion, was inspired for this ultra-feminine, voluptuous love potion from the jars, powder pots and nail varnish vials on his beloved grandmother’s dresser.

Launched in 1995. Notes Top Note: Mint, Lavender, Bergamot Middle Note: Cinnamom, Cumin, Orange Blossom Base Note: Vanilla, Tonka, Sandal, Cedar Recommended Use Casual |

A different fragrance, a new dimension...This utterly novel, totally charming masculine scent is part of a new crop of fragrances that utilize unexpected arpeggios, mainly of orange blossom accords, into creating soft, soapy clean and convincingly modern colognes that are easy to put on any time and easy to love year round. The surprising, starched, almost powdery and hay-like, lightly sweet heart chord mischievously plays on the theme of the aromatic "fougère" genre (the classic ferny masculine cologne) injecting gentle floral nuances and the subtly bitter complimentary petit-grain, an ingredient steam distilled from the twigs and leaves of the bitter orange tree. The cologne's androgynous quality is a knowing wink from the designer who has given us another sweet fougère for men, composed by the same perfumer, the multitalented Francis Kurkdjian, Le Mâle. In tune with that fact, the playful name, Fleur du Mâle, is of course a wordplay on the previous above-mentioned best-seller and Baudelaire's famous poems collections "Les Fleurs du Mal" (Flowers of Evil). Encased in the same torso bottle but this time in opaque, milky white. Ladies, you might want to snitch this one off the shelf of your boyfriend or spouse as well, it's terrific on women's skin too! Created: 2007 Type: Aromatic Fougere Notes Top Note: Petitgrain Middle Note: Orange Blossom, Fern Accord Base Note: Coumarin |
