Project #10: Gaultier2 (vintage)

Published on 23 December 2024 at 20:16

And I'm finally back with some pictures of a fantastic fragrance, which is part of my collection!

I'm talking about this vintage bottle of Gaultier², that I purchased many years ago (probably when it was firstly launched, back in 2005).

This time I wanted to play with opposite colors, but with a touch of sparkle, because every now and then a touch of glitter is more than necessary. So I chose orange, like the color of the fragrance, paired with a vibrant blue, and I have to say that I'm pretty satisfied with the final result.

I also added some real leaves, to give a more 'natural' vibe and luckily I found these linear ones, that added a geometrical touch to the shots.

Looking back at the images I can clearly see some composition mistakes I made, but hey, nobody's perfect and recognizing the mistakes is surely a big improvement for me...

At least the subject was in focus 😂

I hope you enjoy them ✌🏻

About the perfume:

Gaultier² by Jean Paul Gaultier is an enchanting and intimate fragrance that beautifully defies traditional gender norms. Launched back in 2005, this unisex scent, created by Master Parfumeur Francis Kurkdjian, was designed to be shared, celebrating connection and chemistry between individuals.

The composition opens with a warm and inviting blend of amber that immediately envelops you in a sense of comfort and sensuality. Vanilla emerges in the heart, adding a creamy sweetness that feels indulgent without being overpowering. Finally, musk rounds out the base, creating a soft, skin-like trail that lingers beautifully on the body.

What sets Gaultier² apart is its simplicity. Rather than overwhelming the senses with a complex array of notes, the fragrance relies on its trifecta of amber, vanilla, and musk to create a pure yet magnetic effect. It’s a minimalist approach that works wonders, resulting in a scent that feels timeless and deeply personal.

The longevity is impressive, lasting for hours without needing reapplication, and its sillage is moderate, ensuring it leaves an impression without being intrusive. The bottle design, with its sleek and magnetic interlocking feature, reflects the fragrance’s theme of union and duality, making it as functional as it is stylish.

Gaultier² is perfect for those who appreciate warm, cozy scents and are looking for a versatile fragrance that works in both casual and formal settings. Whether shared between partners or worn solo, it’s a scent that feels intimate and uniquely yours.
