Daphné Bugey

"Classique Essence de Parfum is a sweet floral-amber fragrance released in 2016 as part of Jean Paul Gaultier’s Essences de Parfum line. Its opening combines bright tangerine with aldehydic freshness and a warm ginger accent. Orange blossom and jasmine sambac form a luminous white-floral heart with a sensual, feminine character. The drydown becomes creamy and gourmand through whipped cream and vanilla, supported by benzoin and soft cashmere wood. Compared with the original Classique style, it emphasizes a plush, milky sweetness while retaining the collection’s glamorous floral identity. The result is an alluring and polished Eau de Parfum suited to evening wear and cooler conditions."
