Jean Paul Gaultier
So Scandal!
So Scandal! joined the Scandal line in 2020, signed by Fabrice Pellegrin and Daphné Bugey. Jean Paul Gaultier brings together a trio of white flowers, orange blossom, jasmine sambac and tuberose, shaken up by a juicy raspberry and a gourmand milkiness. Its pleated bottle, with its upturned legs, holds a raspberry juice that is almost burgundy.

Jean Paul Gaultier launched So Scandal! in 2020, within the Scandal line opened in 2017. The house sees it as a very floral eau de parfum, worn by an extravagant, sophisticated and funny Parisian whose amused nonchalance causes a scandal in high society.
A fashion night in Paris
The house’s story is set during the great nights of Parisian fashion. At each appearance, her burst of orange blossom, jasmine and tuberose seizes the audience with a sensual elegance, and her milky notes leave broken hearts in her wake.
The house tells the scene in the first person: a woman walks past without a glance, in just a tuxedo jacket, bare-legged, and the whole room stops mid-sentence. Amused by the turmoil she sows, she heads to her table and her gang.
Daphné Bugey and Fabrice Pellegrin
The composition is signed by Daphné Bugey and Fabrice Pellegrin, who, the house says, are not on their first tango. She asserts that freedom means being unafraid; he wears “carpe diem” engraved on the back of his watch.

The advertising
A scandal at dinner
The story of So Scandal! takes up the scene of the Scandal campaigns: a woman in a tuxedo jacket, bare-legged, crosses a Parisian dinner.
The house tells So Scandal! through a Parisian dinner scene: a woman in just a tuxedo jacket, bare-legged, crosses the room without a glance, and all the guests fall silent. Amused by the turmoil, she joins her table and her gang, determined that the show go on.
This scene extends the campaign launched in April 2019 for Scandal à Paris. The AFP-Relaxnews agency then described Irina Shayk, the line’s new face, walking into an upscale restaurant in just a blazer, under the gaze of Rossy de Palma and Jean Paul Gaultier.
