This scent is a lovely spin on the original Classique. While hints of the original scent can still be detected, I found it to be a bit sweeter and a bit less musky and as much as I love the original, I think I prefer this. At first, the scent is quite strong so only a small spray is required, but I did however find that as the night went on, it wore off whereas the original has quite good staying power. Luckily I had the mini version so I was able to reapply regularly, however at the price I was a bit hesitant. The signature silhouette bottle has had an awesome gold revamp which is very cool.

Jean Paul Gaultier Classique Intense Review
In the summer of 2014 Jean Paul Gaultier is launching a new version of his signature and ultra-popular perfume Classique from 1993.
Francis Kurkdjian is the one "renovating" this perfume, not wanting it to lose its identity and powdery-floral character, but rather wanting to give it a new "twist" and modern interpretation. Classique Intense thus consists of two separate units 40% of the fragrance is the original creation, and 60% are new, added components.
The new composition is described as a vivacious, intensive, oriental and solar, containing notes of tiare, pomegranate and gourmand accords at the top, with the heart of orange blossom, rose and jasmine and the base of patchouli and vanilla.

Compliment central
This is my FAVOURITE perfume. I was recommended this perfume by a friend and I recommend it to everyone I meet.
The most important thing is that it lasts all day. I never have to reapply or worry that i'm beginning to smell like sweat. It is a little on the expensive side and is hard to find in NZ. Unfortunately I am at the point where I have to hunt it down and then buy a couple. And it isn't cheap to buy 1 let alone 2!
If you have a bit of cash I definitely would recommend, as it is sweet and very sexy. I love it.

Gaultier Classique Intense reminds me of Gaultier 2 to some extent.
They aren't particularly similar in terms of the actual notes, though they invoke the same feelings and are designed for similar climates.
Both are 'winter' scents. They have a boozy, intense, heavy quality that makes them ideal for colder climates.
Classique intense reminds me of rich dessert such as fruit pudding with warmed brandy.
That's not to say it is overly cloying or that it jumps on to the fruitchoulli bandwagon like a lot of recent releases.
There are hints of vanilla and a sweet quality to it though.
Tips: I have received compliments on this and can definitely smell it on myself throughout the day.
A few sprays go a long way
