Jean Paul Gaultier Monsieur Eau du Matin is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Monsieur Eau du Matin opens with Citrus and Bergamot, settles into a heart of Spicy and Petitgrain, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Guaiac Wood. Jean Paul Gaultier's Monsieur Eau du Matin carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair. Despite smelling great and being championed by some as a fresh, clean must-have, its abysmal performance and accusations of being a watered-down copycat leave many feeling short-changed. Don't expect it to stick around for long.

About

Monsieur Eau du Matin opens with a zesty, invigorating burst of citrus and bergamot, instantly waking up the senses. This bright start quickly transitions to a green, slightly spicy heart of petitgrain, adding a natural, aromatic depth. The dry down is a soft, subtle whisper of guaiac wood and cedar, grounding the freshness with a gentle, woody embrace.
