The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2022, Classique Pride Edition by Jean Paul Gaultier is a fragrance that embodies the brand's ethos of inclusivity and diversity. Created by perfumers Natalie Gracia-Cetto and Quentin Bisch, this scent opens with the brightness of yuzu and blood orange, which cut through to reveal the soft embrace of white floral notes like neroli and orange blossom. The composition then settles into a warm woody and musky base that provides depth and lasting comfort.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance liberally to capture its full brightness — two sprays will allow the yuzu and blood orange notes to shine through initially. As the day progresses, it transitions into a warm and comforting woody-musk base that lingers close to the skin.
