Description
Description
Jean Paul Gaultier Le Beau EDT is the coconut-soaked summer scent that turned a designer release into a modern beach-day cult favorite.
Composed by Quentin Bisch and Sonia Constant for the French house Jean Paul Gaultier in 2019, Le Beau opens on tart bergamot before melting into a milky, sun-warmed coconut heart and a softly sweet tonka base. Reviewers consistently rank it among the best designer summer fragrances of the last decade — effortless, tropical, and built for warm weather.
Scent Character
- Sweet — 67%
- Fresh — 33%
Translation: a creamy coconut-and-tonka sweetness lifted by a bright, citrusy freshness — warm but never heavy.
