A mint version of the Mugler A * Men fragrance
Since then, the choice has been made to put forward the two greatest perfumes of the creator, and to refocus mainly on their world fame. Indeed, since their respective releases in 1993 and 1995, Le Classique and Le Mâle have never ceased to be talked about! Even today, they reinvent themselves and give birth to a new duo called La Belle et le Beau. Galanterie obliges: let's take a closer look at the feminine essence of Jean-Paul Gaultier ...
Beauty, the absolute essence of femininity
To better understand the universe of La Belle by Jean-Paul Gaultier, we need to look at the story of the previous Le Classique. The idea of ​​designing a perfume with a bottle in the shape of a female bust comes from a distant memory of Jean-Paul Gaultier. One day, when he was a child, he discovered a corset at the bottom of an old trunk belonging to his grandmother, a person to whom he was infinitely attached! As if to pay homage to her, while symbolizing absolute femininity, he decided to take inspiration from this retro garment to design a perfume bottle. Since then, the corset has become an iconic piece in his collection. Today, by recalling this memory once again, Jean-Paul Gaultier has chosen to reveal to us the image of a strong and charismatic woman, clearly playing in the register of sensuality. The woman who wears La Belle perfume is not afraid of anything. She is a seductress at heart who already promises to leave no one indifferent!
La Belle by Jean-Paul Gaultier, a sweet flavor in a flamboyant red bottle
As if to sublimate the femininity of his perfume, Jean-Paul Gaultier has slightly modified his bottle. Thus, La Belle is presented in a finely sculpted glass case, whose hips are now more pronounced, the waist refined and the chest very generous. Likewise, revealing all the passion it contains in its heart, La Belle is embellished this time with a dazzling red color. A touch of refinement has been brought to its collar. Indeed, La Belle is now decorated with a necklace of finely carved roses. However, with audacity, Jean-Paul Gaultier has once again chosen to present this perfume in a case in the shape of a tin can. This offbeat choice to say the least fits perfectly with his universe!
To develop his olfactory recipe, Jean-Paul Gaultier called on two renowned perfumers: Quentin Bisch and Sonia Constant. They chose to use three main ingredients. The pear gives this fragrance a fruity, juicy and airy breath. Vetiver, on the other hand, contrasts the whole and gives it more depth and power. Finally, its woody flavor is associated with a sulphurous note of vanilla which only amplifies the suave aspect of this essence.
