Jean Paul Gaultier

Le Beau Le Parfum

EDP · Masculine · 2022

Pineapple opens it, juicy and a bit sharp, with ginger giving a warm bite. Then coconut takes over. It's the creamy, milky kind, not suntan lotion. Iris adds a soft powdery edge that keeps the sweetness from going syrupy. The base is tonka and sandalwood, warm and smooth, with amber rounding it off. It is sweet, and if you dislike sweet fragrances this will not convert you. Projection is strong for the first few hours, then it settles close and lasts most of the day. Good for nights out and cold weather, when you want something warm that people notice.
