Classique Alcohol Free Summer Fragrance 2006 Jean Paul Gaultier for women

I remember this being my first proper perfume about 5 or 4 years ago when I was 12ish as it was a gift from my dad who returned home from France.

I remember liking its light citrusy smell that was somewhat powdery and surreal. It was not too strong and it gave out a gentle whiff.

I really liked the notes and it was very sweet and feminine. However, my taste in perfume has ever since 'matured'. But the bottle was a beautiful piece of art!

So gross ! The citrus scent is so wrong, it's no Clinique Happy that's for sure... I don't know why it doesn't work but I can't even use this as room spray, it's that bad. The smell of orange peel with potpourri... I can't imagine anyone having the right body chemistry to wear this scent. Considering it's alcohol free, the perfumers decided to overload it with citrus to keep the rest of the ingredients from smelling like mould. Fail.

I received this bottle as a gift some years ago and I absolutely adored the bottle design. I love the original Classique but sadly I must say this one doesn't even come close to it. It is super light and smells of baby cologne. It is so light and barely there, I would call this a splash rather than perfume. Either way, I keep the bottle on display because it is quite beautiful. The fragrance however is not for me.

I would really love to try this sometime... people say its sexy and sweet... im not sure how orange blossom would do for me though... :)
