You may have seen the trademark bottle. A female torso, decorated and adorned. This is the packaging that many people associate with Jean Paul Gaultier perfume. There is a lot you may want to know about this designer scent including when it was first released, what the individual fragrances smell like, and how to find the best price possible when you purchase it. Here is what you need to know.
There are actually thirty nine perfumes that make up the complete line of this designer’s scents. They include scents for men and for women. Although the earliest perfume, Classique, was released in 1993 in the now famous torso style bottle and most of the perfumes still play on that packaging theme somewhat they now come in other styles of packaging as well.
The perfumes come in a wide range of scents and are known for their surprising combinations of ingredients . All of the scents are produced by Beaute Prestige International (BPI). This company is actually a division of Shisheido, a Japanese company that also produces scents for a number of other designers.
All perfumes are made up of a top note, the scent that you notice first, middle notes and a base. The middle notes and base tend to be the scents which last longest and knowing what all of these are for the perfumes you are considering is an important part of choosing a perfume that you will enjoy the entire time you are wearing it.
In 1993, Classique was first released to the market under a different name. It was originally Jean Paul Gaultier EDP because it was an eau de parfum. It is still available and is now also available in an eau de toilette form as well. This has been great news for people who want to make sure that they have choices when they pick a specific scent. Le Male was released in 1995 and was the first scent for men which was available for purchase. Although it is most popular in Eastern Europe, Le Male is also popular in North America as well.
One of the surprising things about the Jean Paul Gaultier line is the number of variations available. There are fifteen versions for women, and eleven for men in the Classique and Le Male lines alone. Classique is available in an alcohol-free variant for people who have sensitive skin or who do not like the way that an alcohol-based perfume may react with their skin chemistry.
One of the other lines, Ma Dame, is designed for younger customers. The perfume is floral but complex and has notes of rose and grenadine. It is balanced by the scents of musk and cedar that can give it the depth that sophisticated consumers are looking for even though it is designed for a more youthful clientele. You can also get a number of different body care products in the same scent which can really help you make your scent last.
