The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012, Classique X Eau de Parfum by Jean Paul Gaultier is an Oriental Floral fragrance created by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. This composition opens with the brightness of bergamot and raspberry, leading to a heart of orange blossom and rose that adds a touch of sweetness and floral depth. The base notes of vanilla and iris provide warmth and powdery richness, creating a balance between freshness and indulgence.
Apply one or two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The fragrance opens brightly but quickly settles into its heart notes, so layering it over lotion can enhance the warmth of the base.
