Scandal Le Parfum by Jean Paul Gaultier, released in 2022, is a salted caramel floral: sweet, but with a savoury edge. Jasmine is the top note, a soft white floral lift at the start. Caramel and salt sit in the heart notes, buttery and faintly savoury rather than sugary, and the vanilla base keeps everything warm, smooth and a little powdery, with a balsamic undertone. It is mostly women who choose it, usually hoping for a gourmand that holds back a little. Voters place it in winter and autumn, at night, and it works for an evening that begins once the working day ends. The longevity vote leans moderate. For sillage the vote is clear, and most wearers call it moderate. Give a 3ml decant several evenings of wear before you decide on anything bigger.
