Jean Paul Gaultier Classique Review

I was very fortunate to be gifted a 100ml bottle from my mother in law a while a go (thank you mum) and it was the first time owning a Jean Paul perfume. It has to be one of my favorite perfumes because of all the different scents you can smell, it is a very original scented fragrance.

I was intrigued with the tin container it comes in, but once you pull the bottom, there is a silhouette of a woman. The bottle is beautiful!

When I spray this I can instantly smell the musk with vanilla and rose, some spicy ginger and orange. I am a huge fan of Vanilla and I've recently become a fan of spicy scents so to have at least 2 of these combined, it makes a beautiful combination.

The scent lasts a long time too, with most perfumes the scent will come out strong but disappear in an hour or so. This one lasts all day, and I get so many compliments when I go to town.

The only person who isn't a fan of this fragrance is my husband who says its too strong. But I tell him for $200 a bottle, it better smell strong (Haha)

I will be purchasing one in the future, I am in love with this fragrance and the pretty bottle.

I got this perfume in a sample set from Farmers, variations of which they do every year around Christmas. The set comes with 10 sample sized perfumes and a voucher to redeem for one of the perfumes in a full size (usually 30ml). I bought this to get out of my comfort zone somewhat with perfume as I rotate between two favourites, one of which was included in the set. I have in the past been pleasantly surprised by perfumes when I have put looks aside (I always judge a perfume by the bottle, bad I know), so I set about testing each sample.

Each sample is from 0.8 -1.0 ml, which I found enough for about a week of wear. I’m quite picky about what I do and don’t like, and first impressions are important for a perfume!

I was excited to try this as it is an absolutely iconic and 'classique' perfume - especially the bottle which gets periodically redesigned for different versions of the scent. It is a classic musky sexy sort of scent - not quite old fashioned but not in your face either. The rose is quit predominant but it's not too dry or powdery. It surprisingly didn't last that well on me and I often could not smell it on myself. A lovely classic but not quite modern and strong enough for me.

I was originally given a knock-off of this perfume and loved it but when I found out about the original perfume itself, I was in heaven!! I have a lot of perfumes and wear what ever suits my mood but always need to have a bottle of this handy as I miss this fragrance whenever I run out. The blossom fragrance always makes me feel comfort, confidence and pretty awesome too.

I have been using this product for a few years now, beautiful smell, little on musky side, not over powering tho, I only use as special acassions, I have alot of comments about what i am wearing, dont need to spray much it lasts all day. More on the musk side than floral, more a night frangance than a day to day one.

I LOVE this one, definitely my FAVOURITE. (Or in my top 5 at least!) What's not to love about it (except for the price lol)???

This is one of my all time favourites. I'm usually into sweet, playful fragrances and this one I would describe as more mature and sexy. I like to use it for date nights. It's a little bit more musky than what I usually go for but that's what I like about it. You only need a small amount and I find that this is the most long wearing of all my perfumes, it will literally last all day, so while it is on the more expensive end of the scale, a bottle will last ages. It's classic womanly shaped bottle is feminine and beautiful and the tin it comes in is also very cool.

This perfume is one of my new favourites. The scent is defiantly bold which i love for going out. I only do about 2 sprays and the scent lasts for hours. I dont know if i would really call it a sweet perfume but its not like bitter.

Im inlove with the bottle too i think its so sophisticated. The perfume is pretty pricey but a little goes a long way. I would not probably use this as a daytime perfume as a prefer something a little more fresh during daytime.

I love this beautiful perfume. Bold smell that lasts all day. I get lots of compliments when wearing this. Bottle is also beautiful, and such great quality.

A classical fragrance. Timeless. Smelt Devine on and lasted all day A creamy vanilla finish I enjoyed
