Among white flowers it is the most substantial, creamy and fleshy with a slightly rubbery undertone and a green sharpness at the edges that stops it being simply sweet. At elixir strength it has real carrying power and it is not a shy material to begin with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTonka bean is the counterweight. Warm, mildly sweet and faintly dusty, with a bitter edge running underneath that keeps it from turning to syrup, it softens the flower and holds it to the skin for hours. Quentin Bisch is the perfumer, and when a composition has only two parts the proportions between them are the whole piece of work. What this means in practice is that there is no arc to follow. The fragrance is recognisably itself from ten minutes in, and what shifts is the balance, the tuberose receding and the tonka rising, so the later hours are softer and rounder than the start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 30ml bottle suits this better than most people expect. It travels, it fits a bag, and at the rate you will actually use it the quantity is not the constraint. It is aimed at women, it suits autumn and winter and evenings in particular, and it is not a fragrance for a warm office.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe house behind it is French. Its founder presented a first women's collection in 1976 and opened a Paris shop in 1984, moving into perfume in 1993 with a corset shaped bottle that has represented the brand since. Puig bought a majority stake in 2011 and brought fragrance in house in 2016.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean Paul Gaultier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55353739280711,"sku":"ENG210732","price":102.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/eng210732.webp?v=1792955899","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/es\/products\/jean-paul-gaultier-gaultier-divine-elixir-parfum-30ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
