Scandal pour Homme in detail
For Jean Paul Gaultier, Scandal pour Homme Eau de Toilette is a champion who causes scandal through victory. Its glass bottle, crowned in gold, takes on a boxer's build and can be refilled; the page gives neither the year nor the perfumer.
The pyramid has one material per tier. At the top, clary sage brings a fresh, aromatic touch. In the heart, tonka bean, which the house says is dosed to the edge of excess, gives an addictive sweetness. In the base, a sensual, dry, woody vetiver balances the whole. The house files this fragrance among woody orientals.
Scandal pour Homme is worn in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening. It is a woody, gourmand amber, for those who love generous tonkas. It goes along with an evening or a dinner.
Three niche ambers in our catalogue share some of its materials: Ambre 114 by Histoires de Parfums brings together vetiver and tonka bean; Tolu by Ormonde Jayne pairs clary sage and tonka bean; Manhattan by Roja Parfums shares vetiver.
