Classique Airlines

by Daphné Bugey

Jean Paul Gaultier Classique Airlines is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Daphné Bugey. Classique Airlines opens with Rose and Rum, settles into a heart of Orchid and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Amber, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Jean Paul Gaultier's Classique Airlines carries an Acquired verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mystery, with a lot of people convinced the notes given are completely off. If you're after a sweet, powdery vanilla with a surprising orange blossom twist, this'll do the trick. Don't expect the rum and rose you might be promised.

Its sweet, warm, and powdery nature makes it ideal for dates and casual outings where a noticeable scent is welcome. While some find it quite strong, it's probably a bit much for a formal office setting. It's definitely not a sport fragrance.

About

Opens with a perplexing 'green' or orange blossom note, rather than the listed rose and rum, before settling into a beautiful sweet and powdery vanilla heart. Hints of amber and tonka bean provide depth, building a warm, enveloping cloud. Expected notes of orchid and narcissus are overshadowed by the vanilla and amber sweetness.
