The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014, Classique Edition Collector by Jean Paul Gaultier is a fragrance that embodies the designer's spirit of inclusivity and diversity. Jacques Cavallier Belletrud crafted this Oriental Floral scent, blending powdery warmth with bright citrus notes. The composition opens with bergamot, mandarin orange, and star anise, giving way to the heart notes of rose, ylang-ylang, and iris. As it settles into its base of amber, sandalwood, and musk, Classique Edition Collector becomes a rich blend of floral and woody accords.

How to wear it

Classique Edition Collector's top notes are fleeting but vibrant. Apply two sprays for an initial burst of citrus and star anise that will give way to a richer floral heart and woody base over time. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to the skin, where its powdery warmth can be fully appreciated.
