Le Beau Flower Edition by Jean Paul Gaultier opens on kumquat and lemon, blossoms into violet leaf and geranium, then rests on a base of cashmeran, tonka bean and patchouli for a floral-woody masculine.
Sweet kumquat and tangy lemon share the top on the same citrus terrain, one leaning toward sugar, the other toward acidity.
Violet leaf, green and earthy, sits alongside geranium, rosy and floral: a contrast forms between the herbaceous greenness of one and the floral sweetness of the other.
Woody cashmeran meets toasted tonka bean and earthy patchouli in the base; the musky note of cashmeran finds the dampness of patchouli on a shared base.
