About

Great Action is Perfume Parlour's budget take on Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Pour Homme. It opens with Mandarin Orange, Clary Sage, leads into a heart of Tonka Bean, Caramel, and dries down to Vetiver. The overall character is sweet with citrus and aromatic facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than the designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day.
