The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020 by Jean Paul Gaultier and crafted by perfumer Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud, Classique Eau de Toilette X Mas Edition 2020 is a harmonious blend of sweet and spicy notes that evoke the festive warmth of the holiday season. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus burst from bergamot and mandarin orange, quickly giving way to the rich sweetness of pear and plum. At its heart, star anise and ginger provide a warm, aromatic contrast, while rose and ylang-ylang add a delicate floral touch. The base notes of vanilla, cinnamon, sandalwood, amber, and musk create a cozy, enveloping warmth that lingers long after the initial freshness fades.
This fragrance blooms best close to skin, so a light spritz on your pulse points will ensure it stays intimate and personal. The initial citrus burst fades within an hour, but the spiced base notes continue to evolve and deepen throughout the day.
