Jean Paul Gaultier
La Favorite
La Favorite is released in 2026 by Jean Paul Gaultier, carried by the floral richness of Queen of the night and the intense floral character of Sambac jasmine. Amélie Jacquin and Quentin Bisch place the caramel of Benzoin at the heart, and the sensuality of White musks at the base.

Jean Paul Gaultier had not launched a major feminine fragrance since Scandal: ten years separate the two. La Favorite opens a pillar, at a time when the house enters a new creative era under the direction of Duran Lantink.
The name carries its historical weight: at the court of France, the favorite designated the king's official mistress. The parallel is no accident, as the couture presented in Paris evokes Marie-Antoinette and the art of occupying space.
The composition is signed by Amélie Jacquin and Quentin Bisch, both perfumers at Givaudan.

The advertising
An effigy on a podium
Ella McCutcheon embodies La Favorite in an offbeat Paris, surrounded by Gigi Goode and Lyas.
The campaign casts model Ella McCutcheon, who has already walked the house's runway shows, as an effigy on a podium, in an offbeat Paris.
She does not appear alone: Gigi Goode and Lyas surround her, chosen among the house's close circle. The stated approach favors a group rather than a single face.
