The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011, Classique X Jewel Edition by Jean Paul Gaultier is a fragrance that captures the essence of its designer's ethos: bold and inclusive. Perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud crafted this scent with a bright citrus opening from bergamot and mandarin orange, which gives way to a soft floral heart featuring African orange flower and peony. The base notes of irises, cedarwood, and vanilla provide a warm, powdery finish that is both comforting and elegant.
Apply two sprays to pulse points, as the citrus notes are bright but fleeting. The powdery base will build gradually over time, making this scent ideal for daytime wear.
