Where to buy

Riding on the rock trend, Jean Paul Gaultier’s first collection did not meet the expected success. It was not until the 1980s that his unconventional style got noticed. The enfant terrible of fashion is a nonconformist who likes to revisit the codes of fashion and perfumery. It was in 2011 that Jean Paul Gaultier conceived Kokorico, a masculine fragrance, sexy, playful and outrageously virile.

Man is written in the masculine plural

According to Jean Paul Gaultier, man is written in the masculine plural: there are men of different ages, masculine or feminine, half rogue, half good guy, roguish or refined, but always with a strong personality. Kokorico aims to deliver the many faces of man in one single fragrance. Kokorico is therefore the juice of an atypical man, yet remains modern and ultra sexy. Sixteen years after his great success, Le Male, Jean Paul Gaultier wanted a sensual, generous and nervy fragrance. Kokorico is the scent of a torrid man, full of vitality. Its glamorous side is revisited in the designer’s style, with humor and provocation. This torrid scent invites men to proclaim their virility loud and clear, like a rooster in the middle of its henhouse!

The provocative notes of Kokorico

Kokorico opens on the fresh and sparkling notes of fig leaf, with an aromatic and green effect. Kokorico then turns warm, already hinting at the sweet notes of cocoa. The heart turns woody with patchouli and cedar. The base is contrasted between the warm, powerful notes of cocoa and the sensual masculine notes of vetiver. The bottle is a work of art in its own right. Highly humorous and uninhibited, the black trompe-l’œil bottle evokes a man’s torso, the signature design of Jean Paul Gaultier’s first men’s fragrance. From the front, the bottle reflects a man’s face. Still against a black background, Kokorico is written in red letters in a very dynamic way, resembling feathers. An extraordinary bottle for an extraordinary fragrance.

In Jean Paul Gaultier’s henhouse, Kokorico proclaims its virility loud and clear. Very sexy and playful, the masculine fragrance is highly provocative, much like its bottle. The notes are equally alluring, making Kokorico an ultra-modern and thoroughly uninhibited composition. For men who are not afraid to proclaim their virility loud and clear, Kokorico shows the way...
