Jean Paul Gaultier Classique Review

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.

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

Feminine floral light. Beautiful bottle, lovely to use. Tried this in a miniatures set and was one I liked the most. Would definitely buy the full sized bottle. Enjoyable perfume

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.

Firstly I love the bottle. I love the torso bottle for the man than this one for woman and find them really sexy.The scent is so divine and I just get a feeling I should be going somewhere extra special when I apply so it always makes me feel as though I need to take extra care with my hair and makeup etc. so I deserve to wear this perfume. My only con with this is it doesn't seem to last a long time on me which is why I had to mark down a little.

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 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 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.
