Scandal Pour Homme Elixir is the parfum-concentration version of Scandal Pour Homme, released in January 2026 by Jean Paul Gaultier alongside Scandal Elixir.

In January 2026, Jean Paul Gaultier introduced Scandal Pour Homme Elixir, together with its feminine counterpart, Scandal Elixir. It extends the 2021 Scandal Pour Homme into parfum concentration and adds a dark fruit: black cherry, where the feminine Elixir chooses blackberry.

A scandal in full regalia

The house says that intensity takes command here, in a fragrance designed to cause a scandal in full regalia. In its story of the Gaultier train, it travels in first class, with neither restraint nor discretion, and keeps excess and luxury for the red velvet of its case.

Jean Paul Gaultier boils the fragrance down to three temptations: its black cherry, the insolence of its patchouli and the softness of its tonka bean, all in the service of what the house calls a controlled subversion.

A line opened in 2021

Scandal Pour Homme, launched in 2021, gave rise to Scandal Pour Homme Le Parfum, Scandal Pour Homme Absolu and Scandal Pour Homme Intense. The Elixir completes the line in 50, 100 and 150 ml, in parfum concentration.

What critics say

Sandra Raičević Petrović finds both Elixirs excellent; in the masculine one, she praises a liqueur-like cherry, never sour, melting into a smoky, balsamic base, which she can just as well imagine worn by a woman.
