The story behind the bottle.
Classique X Love Actually by Jean Paul Gaultier was launched in 2011 and is a floral fragrance for women, crafted by the renowned perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud. The composition opens with the bright zest of bergamot and mandarin orange, leading into a heart of orange blossom and peony that reads as both delicate and lush. The base notes of vanilla, woods, iris, and powdery sweetness create a warm, enveloping finish. This fragrance captures the essence of a romantic moment, blending freshness with sensuality in a way that feels lasting.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a warm, enveloping scent that develops over time. The bright top notes fade within an hour but make way for the rich vanilla and woodsy base notes, which linger throughout the day.
