Eau de Toilette (EDT) from Jean Paul Gaultier.

Paid links · Sold via a marketplace listing · how this works

Scent description (editorial impression)

Coconut flakes first, one wearer writes, then a sweet, creamy coconut and tonka that puts two others in mind of a Raffaello praline and a third of a piña colada, sunscreen and all, which does not bother them. It goes to warm evenings and outdoor cookouts, draws compliments, and lasts anywhere from a couple of hours to ten. Its detractors meet a piercing, synthetic tonka, a faintly nauseating drydown after six sprays, or, on one wearer, the smell of unwashed sweat after an hour.

More from Jean Paul Gaultier

La Belle Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense

Eau de Parfum (EDP). Pears poached in syrup, then vanilla and a great deal of tonka, with a thread of incense smoke underneath: owners reach for it on winter date nights and warn that two or three sprays are plenty.

Le Male Eau de Toilette

Eau de Toilette (EDT). Lavender and mint over vanilla, with the shaving-soap smell of an old barbershop: the sailor-torso bottle that fought Joop!

Scandal Eau de Parfum

Eau de Parfum (EDP). Blood orange and a flood of honey over gardenia and patchouli, with a beeswax, faintly animal warmth that fans call sexy, in a kitschy showstopper of a bottle.

Le Male Elixir Parfum

Parfum / Extrait. Le Male on steroids, one owner calls it: a loud minty lavender opening that sinks into honey, tonka and vanilla, sweet enough to score an eleven on another's sugar meter.

Le Male Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense

Eau de Parfum (EDP). The original Le Male's lavender and vanilla, darkened with a burst of cardamom and a powdery iris: to one owner a rich chocolate dessert made out of the original, to another Le Male's final form.

Le Beau Le Parfum Eau de Parfum Intense

Eau de Parfum (EDP). A piña colada that turns into a coconut gummy and settles on amber woods, one wearer traces, denser than the Eau de Toilette; others get pineapple and coconut sunscreen, or a creamy tonka-vanilla within the hour.

Le Beau Paradise Garden Eau de Parfum

Eau de Parfum (EDP). Mint and ginger open with a cold snap while green, watery notes sit underneath; then come coconut and a humid fig that one wearer likens to the Amazon rainforest and another to a very good coconut hair conditioner.

Gaultier Divine Eau de Parfum

Eau de Parfum (EDP). Watermelon eaten near the rind, one wearer says, then lily and salt on a sea breeze, with creamy vanilla and meringue beneath; to another it is a luscious dessert by the beach until a wave leaves a mouthful of sea water.

Scandal pour Homme Eau de Toilette

Eau de Toilette (EDT). One wearer tracked it down after smelling it on a stranger at a holiday restaurant; another bought it as their very first fragrance and fell into the hobby.
