Its bold, seductive sweetness and strong projection make it best for nighttime, dates, or formal events. It's too rich and attention-grabbing for the office or sporty activities.

About

Scandal envelops the senses in a rush of decadent honey, lush gardenia, and the dazzling brightness of blood orange. This unapologetically bold creation layers creamy caramel and beeswax over a plush patchouli base, with hints of peach and licorice weaving in playful intrigue. The result is a rich, gourmand-floral trail that feels both deliciously modern and irresistibly sultry, perfect for nights that blur into morning.
