Scandal Pour Femme Eau de Parfum vs No.008 Scandal Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
A bombshell honey-caramel elixir that oozes confidence and sensuality. Not for the shy, Scandal is a provocative gourmand floral that demands attention and leaves a lasting impression.
A budget spin on Jean Paul Gaultier's Scandal, No.008 leans into the same fruity-caramel signature but flattens the honeyed patchouli base into something lighter and less syrupy - a decent starter dupe rather than a true match.
