by Jean Paul Gaultier
Fragile Eau de Toilette by Jean Paul Gaultier is a bright, citrus-forward floral with a modern, feminine elegance. The scent opens with crisp notes of lemon, mandarin orange, and pink pepper, balanced by a core of white florals—tuberose and orange blossom—that lend it depth without heaviness. It reveals a subtle fruity nuance, reminiscent of ripe pear, adding a delicate sweetness that brings a light, effervescent quality. On the skin, it evolves into a musky, quiet drydown, making it feel refined and softly sensual. The perfume is widely praised for its harmonious balance, uplifting character, and sophisticated allure—particularly those who appreciate a floral that remains radiant yet restrained. Its sillage is moderate and well-distributed, making it suitable for daytime wear and office environments, though it requires warm weather to fully bloom. The bottle's snow globe design enhances the ephemeral, dreamlike charm of the scent.
