Jean Paul Gaultier Classique — Type Formula
A powdery orange-blossom bombshell wrapped in warm vanilla and ginger, curved like the famous corset bottle.
Jean Paul Gaultier's 1993 signature builds a plush cloud of orange blossom, rose and powdery orris over a creamy vanilla base. Ginger and star anise add a spicy shimmer that keeps the sweetness from tipping into candy.
