About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Scandal by Jean Paul Gaultier, launched in 2017, is a chypre floral that opens with a bright burst of blood orange and mandarin orange. The citrus top notes quickly give way to a rich, honeyed heart where gardenia, orange blossom, jasmine, and peach intertwine. The honey note is dominant, lending a thick, syrupy sweetness that defines the fragrance's character.
The base of beeswax, caramel, patchouli, and licorice adds depth and a slightly animalic, gourmand twist. This is a bold, extroverted scent for women who enjoy sweet, floral compositions with a sensual edge. It suits evening wear and cooler months, where its warmth and intensity can be fully appreciated. Collectors who appreciate honey-drenched florals with a patchouli backbone will find Scandal a compelling addition, though those who prefer light, fresh fragrances may find it overwhelming.
