Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal By Night

Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal By Night is a darker, more indulgent version of the original Scandal fragrance. Released in 2018 as an Eau de Parfum for women, this nighttime edition amplifies the honey and gourmand aspects while adding tuberose and cherry for a more provocative, after-dark character.

The opening is sweet and citrusy. Honey provides golden, warm sweetness, while bitter orange and general citrus notes add brightness.

This opening is like a sweet cocktail served at an elegant evening event. The heart is rich and sensual.

Tuberose provides its heady, creamy, intoxicating floral character, while orange blossom adds honeyed sweetness. Cherry contributes a sweet, fruity depth, pear provides a softer fruitiness, and Himalayan nard adds an exotic, slightly earthy quality.

The base is warm and enveloping. Vanilla provides rich, creamy sweetness, while tonka bean adds almond-like warmth.

Patchouli contributes dark, earthy depth, sandalwood provides creamy woodiness, amberwood adds golden warmth, and white musk creates a clean finish. With dominant sweet, honey, and gourmand accords plus prominent vanilla character, Scandal By Night lives up to its name as a fragrance designed for after-dark adventures.

The moderate white floral, cherry, woody, tuberose, amber, citrus, and warm spicy elements create a rich, complex composition. It is bold, sweet, and unapologetically indulgent.
