About This Perfume
Classique Summer 2012 by Jean Paul Gaultier is a Floral fragrance for women. Classique Summer 2012 was launched in 2012. Top notes are Orange Blossom, Clementine and Rose; middle notes are Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine, Iris and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Vanilla, Musk and Amber. The 2012 summer editions of the famous Jean Paul Gaultier fragrances Classique and Le Male, Classique Summer 2012 and Le Male Summer 2012, bring colors and aromas of tropical jungle in the city. The fragrances are a fresher, lighter and more sparkly than the original compositions, but they are still deeply sensual and attractive. Classique Summer 2012 opens with fresh and flirtatious notes of clementine from Sicily, rose and orange blossom. Exotic flower of ylang-ylang forms the perfume’s core together with petals of Sambac jasmine, lily of the valley and white iris, while the base notes are oriental and warm with amber, vanilla and fresh musk. The signature bottles in the shape of male and female torsos and their can boxes are decorated with vivid design inspired by safari, urban jungle, tropical leaves, flowers and vines. It is available as 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

The Brand

Jean Paul Gaultier

Jean Paul Gaultier launched fragrance with Classique in 1993 and Le Male in 1995; the house has since built one of the strongest designer-gourmand catalogues, currently anchored by the Scandal and Le Male families. Scendira lists 208 JPG fragrances with 34 in stock, priced $35 to $207. The catalogue leans gourmand-feminine on average (the Classique / La Belle side outnumbers Le Male in SKU count). Community top five in stock: Scandal Pour Homme Absolu (chestnut caramel sandalwood, 2024), Scandal Pour Homme Le Parfum (geranium tonka sandalwood, 2022), Le Beau Paradise Garden (mint ginger coconut fig, 2024), Scandal Pour Homme (caramel latte vetiver, 2021) and Le Male Essence de Parfum (leather cardamom vanilla, 2016). Le Male in its EDT form remains the historical anchor, a mint-vanilla-lavender that defined 90s masculine gourmand. Bottles are the sculpted torso and bust icons.
