Jean Paul Gaultier So Scandal Eau De Parfum 30ml

I thought i hated fruity perfume but this perfume proved me wrong. I just had to find the right one! This has to be the best combination of sweet, fruity, floral perfume. Its more sophisticated, not generic at all compared to other designer perfumes out there. It really stood out to me. You could tell its high quality. Price is a tad bit high but this is worth it. It can last more than 24 on my skin and almost a week on clothing, not even being dramatic. Dont take my word for it and try it for yourself! This is perfect for late night events. Only disadvantage is that it may be too cloying during the summer, definately a winter and fall scent.

I don't own any of the previous scandals but I was intrigued to try this one because of its raspberry and milk note. Packaging is gorgeous and my fiance finds it hilarious for some reason, probably the upside-down legs haha. The Scent, I will describe it as an untrained nose. At first sniff off the bottle it smelled like some type of sweet grape 🍇, like a grape gummy bear or Starburst, on the skin at first application I get the same effect but then the flowers start to come out, I can smell orange blossom and that grape scent is probably the tuberose. The milk note can be detected by the creaminest of the scent. Many people say that this is a sexy scent. I would disagree but it depends on your definition of sexy. To me sexy requires not only sweetness but some ... MoreI don't own any of the previous scandals but I was intrigued to try this one because of its raspberry and milk note.

The milk note can be detected by the creaminest of the scent. Many people say that this is a sexy scent. I would disagree but it depends on your definition of sexy. To me sexy requires not only sweetness but some spice to make it more misterious, this is sweet and floral and perhaps more flirty than sexy. Very feminine, it lasts on clothes a long time. Usually until I wash it, on skin, I would say it does last more than 7hr but it is hard to tell because I am in AZ and it is so hot that the scent might disappear quicker than intentional. Also I think this cent can be used year round, it is sweet enough for winter and fresh enough for summer. Overall I am very happy with my first Scandal perfume and I will be looking to try Scandal by Night.

I absolutely ADORE the entire Scandal range. But Do Scandal is one of my favorites. It’s the only fruity forward of the range, and it is intensely reminiscent of cherries to me, although it’s apparently raspberries. It doesn’t pull raspberry like Hot Couture and the like. I’m a big fan of jasmine sambac, too. Truly gorgeous bottle and the LID!!! A true aphrodisiac- highly, HIGHLY RECOMMEND

A beautiful, sexy fragrance which lasts all day. The scent

A beautiful, sexy fragrance which lasts all day. The scent is fruity, I think of raspberries when I smell it and the perfume a dark pink colour. The bottle looks expensive and it's a treat to wear it. It's alluring but not overpowering. I wear it to work and feel comfortable. Will definitely purchase again.

Bold and heady scent

Sampled this perfume recently and wore it almost every day.I received a lot of flattering comments from my work colleagues, both male and female.The female colleague asked me to send a photo to her after she saw the perfume.The male colleague also asked to see it and said he will consider buying it for his girlfriend for Christmas.This is a strong and heady scent. It's very strong to start off with and I find it didn't last as long compared to the first few days of wearing it.Unsure what it was but it seemed to wear off quickly and needed a reapply several hours later.Couldn't really smell the base notes either after a few hours.I think this scent is suitable for an evening occasion rather than an everyday daytime perfume as it can be quite bold and ... MoreSampled this perfume recently and wore it almost every day.I received a lot of flattering comments from my work colleagues, both male and female.The female colleague asked me to send a photo to her after she saw the perfume.The male colleague also asked to see it and said he will consider buying it for his girlfriend for Christmas.This is a strong and heady scent.

Detergent like smell. Disappointed!

This perfume starts with a nice sweet floral note of orange blossom, which really impressed me at first since I was specifically looking for an orange blossom scent. But within 10 minutes, it shifts to jasmine & unfortunately, the jasmine quickly turns into a detergent like smell, which was a big letdown. On skin, it smells like detergent, nd on clothes it is a weird mix of detergent and aftershave. The milky notes are there but super faint. Overall it is light and lasts about 4-5 hours, but just smells like detergent to me. I even asked 2-3 people to review and they said the same thing, that it smells like clothes' soap/detergent! But expensive one (hahaha). So If you're thinking of buying, I'd say skip the jasmine version in this line coz they don’t quite nail it.

Light, sweet floral scent perfect for summer

Just got this week and already a go to favourite for me for this summer. All round winning experience for me with a light, but warm, scent that goes from day to night. Starts with a distinct look from the adorable shaped bottle with the killer heels topper. Lovely deep pink coloured liquid that hints at fresh fruit, cocktails and warm summer evenings. Long lasting fragrance - a little goes a long way - could still smell hints of it after a full day at work. First used it on heat points as recommended but I prefer to dab a bit onto a cotton square and wear in bra or spritz onto clothes as I find I can be quite sensitive to perfumes on my skin. I found it smelled the same on me and lasted as long either way. Not too heavy for office or work use and not headache ... MoreJust got this week and already a go to favourite for me for this summer.

I found it smelled the same on me and lasted as long either way. Not too heavy for office or work use and not headache inducing which is often a problem with some of the heavier perfumes on the market. Top notes feel light, sugar coated and fruity, without being cloying. Gradually moving to the warmer, longer lasting notes over the day, to finish with an almost creamy, caramelised feeling base. Got asked about what "lovely" perfume was I wearing by a number of people. Husband loved it on me and he is quite picky about things like that as he definitely notices cheap v quality perfumes. Made me feel very feminine and boho chic, even in t-shirt and jeans; sexy without being trashy. Definitely recommend giving it a try if you like subtle but sophisticated that does not overwhelm everything and everyone else in an enclosed space but leaves them wanting more

More than scandal

The first minutes of the fragrance convey delicacy and femininity.Tangerine berries are succulent and very cheerful; the orange is more like an orange peel.The honey is not so sugary, but it is undoubtedly enveloping and cozy, reigning until the end.The mixture of citrus and sweet allowed for a pleasant balance, where you can at the same time soften and intensify each of the notes.Soon after, comes the surprise: the Scandal perfume starts to get more sensual and audacious. This is because of the beeswax, which warms up the fragrance (yes, it's a really warm feeling!).The gardenia starts to stand out, bringing almost a declaration of “Look! I'm an adult, independent, determined and I do what I want!”.Patchouli and licorice arrive slowly, to give a ... MoreThe first minutes of the fragrance convey delicacy and femininity.Tangerine berries are succulent and very cheerful; the orange is more like an orange peel.The honey is not so sugary, but it is undoubtedly enveloping and cozy, reigning until the end.The mixture of citrus and sweet allowed for a pleasant balance, where you can at the same time soften and intensify each of the notes.Soon after, comes the surprise: the Scandal perfume starts to get more sensual and audacious.

It's more a matter of feeling beautiful, free and happy!

Sexy bottle, sweet scent

Leaning more towards fruity than floral to my nose, it is a very feminine and sweet fragrance with notes of raspberry and orange blossom. There is an underlying note of a generalised candy store, reminiscent of artificially flavoured sweets. My sister made the comment that on first spritz it smells like a zappo, and she’s right, but it a very good way.A young woman’s scent certainly, though having such a sexy bottle I wouldn’t go as far as to say suited for a child. This being said, my mum who has also been wearing so scandal, describes it as fresh and light and actually enjoys the bright notes. I see this as a spring and summer fragrance, appropriate for day wear.Long lasting, though I find on my body chemistry the scent changes throughout the day, becoming ... MoreLeaning more towards fruity than floral to my nose, it is a very feminine and sweet fragrance with notes of raspberry and orange blossom.

It is a strong scent so I imagine it being good value overtime as you really only needs 2 sprays.
