Gaultier Divine is the eau de parfum launched by Jean Paul Gaultier in August 2023, signed by Quentin Bisch and embodied by Yara Shahidi. A white lily, a meringue and a salty note compose, according to the house, a gourmand floral with a marine twist, on a base of musk and patchouli. The bottle reprises the house's conical corset, a tribute to Madonna's bustier, in a gold-toned version.
A tiered reading according to Wikiparfum
The house does not publish, on its official page, a detailed pyramid across three tiers for Gaultier Divine. Wikiparfum, however, offers a structured reading of the fragrance, moving from a fresh opening toward a gourmand and salty base.
Top: bergamot and pink pepper
According to Wikiparfum, the opening pairs Bergamot with a touch of pink pepper, offering a sparkling and lightly spicy start before the arrival of the floral bouquet.
Heart: white flower bouquet
Wikiparfum places in the heart a set of white flowers: lily, ylang-ylang, Egyptian jasmine, frangipani and sambac jasmine. This accumulation of creamy floral materials forms the composition's center of gravity.
Base: meringue, salt, benzoin, musk and patchouli
The base described by Wikiparfum pairs a meringue accord with a salty facet, along with benzoin, musk and patchouli, which brings the gourmand and powdery dimension mentioned elsewhere.
What the label declares
The label lists linalool, limonene, geraniol, eugenol and citral, molecules from the white flowers and citrus announced, as well as benzyl salicylate, benzyl alcohol and benzyl benzoate, common in florals. Three colorants, CI 19140, CI 14700 and CI 60730, give the juice its hue.
What the house does not say
On its official page, Jean Paul Gaultier does not break Gaultier Divine down into three tiers; the order above is Wikiparfum's. The sea salt and musk from the notes are found in Wikiparfum's account under the salty facet and the base musk.
