The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012 by Jean Paul Gaultier and crafted by perfumers Annick Ménardo and Olivier Cresp, Kokorico by Night is a sophisticated unisex fragrance that blends the crisp freshness of bergamot with the warm richness of cacao pod. The heart notes of fig leaf and rhubarb add an unexpected touch of green sweetness, while the base of tonka bean and woody notes provides a grounding warmth. This composition captures the essence of Jean Paul Gaultier's inclusive and irreverent design ethos, translating it into an olfactory experience that is both bold and nuanced.
Apply Kokorico by Night to pulse points for a subtle yet enduring presence. The bergamot top note is bright but fleeting, so focus on layering the warmer base notes to ensure they linger throughout the day.
