No.120 Scandal

Eden's No.120 takes its structure from Jean Paul Gaultier's Scandal Pour Homme, a modern gourmand that pairs sweetness with smoky vetiver. It opens with a bright, citrusy hit of mandarin, given a green, herbal edge by clary sage, which keeps the fragrance from feeling one-note sweet right from the start. The heart is where the gourmand character comes through strongest - a rich, creamy blend of caramel and tonka bean that reads smooth and indulgent without tipping into cloying. The base then pulls things back toward earthiness with vetiver, grounding the sweetness in a smoky, woody finish that lingers well on skin. It's a fragrance with real personality, suited to evenings out or dates where a bit of sweetness and attitude are welcome. Compared with the original, the projection and sillage here are more restrained, and the caramel-tonka heart doesn't carry quite the same rich depth, but the overall citrus-to-gourmand-to-smoky arc is a faithful, wearable take on the concept.
