Scandal Pour Homme Absolu, released by Jean Paul Gaultier in 2024, is a woody scent built on just three notes and composed by Quentin Bisch, Christophe Raynaud and Natalie Gracia-Cetto. Woody is the only word people use for it, and the structure explains why.
Mirabelle opens it, a small golden plum that gives a soft, honeyed fruit sweetness rather than anything sharp. The heart is chestnut, which brings a warm, nutty, slightly sweet and roasted quality, almost like something baked, and it is the note that gives the scent its character. Sandalwood forms the base, creamy and smooth, so the fruit and nut settle onto a soft, milky wood that carries the whole thing for hours.
Most wearers report long lasting performance and a strong trail, with a good number finding it moderate. It is voted mainly for winter and autumn and leans towards evening. It suits someone who likes warm, nutty woods and wants a cold-weather scent that is sweet in a quiet, roasted way rather than sugary.
