One of the most famous fashion designers in France, Jean-Paul Gaultier, gained great popularity at the end of the last century. He created his own unique style in fashion, without having a special design education for this. Only thanks to his talent, the young fashion designer quickly achieved great heights.
How did it all start?
Jean-Paul Gaultier began his career as a designer at a very young age, offering his sketches of clothes to famous French fashion designers at that time. And as soon as he turned 18, he began to work with Pierre Cardin. The first collection of Jean-Paul Gaultier appeared in the mid-70s. It was the cheapest collection, because there were no funds to create it. It was made from ordinary paper napkins, and all accessories were made from various improvised materials. But just ten years later, Jean-Paul created his own style, which became his hallmark and glorified the name of his creator throughout the world. Gauthier is not afraid to experiment, to mix differentstyles, which makes his collections unusual and attractive.
New extravagant styles
Jean knew how to attract attention. He could arrange his shows anywhere that aroused interest in him. Museums, rings and even prisons - everything was open for his models. With his eccentric demeanor and flamboyant style, he was able to change the public's opinion of style and pave the way for a beautiful new world of fashion.
Jean-Paul Gaultier shocked the surrounding society both with the form of his clothes (he could wear a vest with a Scottish skirt) and with his collections: he could dress men in women's attire, while women demonstrated eccentric piercings.
Many world movie and pop stars, having fallen in love with Gauthier's extraordinary models, ordered outfits for his tour, and famous directors - for their films, which later had high ratings ("City of Lost Children", "The Fifth Element", etc.). Among them was Madonna's most famous black cone-shaped bra. Other notables who spoke to Jean-Paul very often were Marilyn Manson and Mylene Farmer.
Perfume by Jean Paul Gaultier
Perfume Jean-Paul Gaultier first showed the world in 1993. At that time, already an experienced fashion designer, he decided to switch to something else. This "other" was perfume. The debut was the women's perfume La Classique. From the first days they immediately gained popularity among the beautiful half of humanity. Perfume "Jean-Paul Gaultier Classic" has a light floral aroma with unobtrusive notesEast, perfectly emphasizing the tenderness and depth of the female soul. This fragrance was inspired by Jean-Paul's grandmother, whom he was in awe of and considered her the ideal of femininity.
The first perfume "Jean Paul Gaultier" for men was released in 1995, they were bottled in the original bottle in the form of a male torso. Refreshingly delicate, Le Male is a unisex fragrance.
The brightest and most unpredictable was the perfume "Jean Paul Gaultier" with a bottle in the form of a Christmas souvenir - a ball with sparkles in the form of snow, they were called Ffagile.
What's different?
Perfume "Jean Paul Gaultier" is an original and bewitching combination of fragrances, giving a sense of freedom, lightness, striving for individuality and perfection. Any fragrance from Gauthier will give you sophistication, an explosion of emotions and a feeling of eternal youth. All perfumes in the collection are unique and can be recognized by their bold and unusual bouquet of scents.

And men's perfumes are dominated by woody and citrus shades, combined with the soothing scent of lavender. A hint of fern, leather, cardamom and mint may also be added. Men's fragrances from Gaultier are unisex or, as they are also called, fougere.

New men's fragrance
Immediately after the fall-winter 2011-2012 fashion show, the famous designer Jean-Paul Gaultier presented to the public his new men's fragrance Kokorico, which means "Kukareku" in Russian. The name of the perfume is very symbolic, because the rooster is a symbol of Jean's native country. The rooster in France is a symbol of masculinity, courage, honor and charm.
Kokorico has a soft, woody undertone of cedar and vetiver herbaceous plant with a hint of cocoa, which is considered quite a strong aphrodisiac, fig and patchouli.
Like all other designs by Gauthier, the bottle of this perfume is original and looks different from different angles. If you look from one side, this is a male face in profile, and if you turn the bottle and look from the other side, you can see a male torso. And the color of the bottle in a classic style is shiny black glass with an eye-catching inscription in bright red.
From France to Russia
In France itself, the Kokorico fragrance appeared in early September and quickly spread around the world, and the CIS countries were no exception. In Russia, products from such a designer as Jean-Paul Gaultier are also very popular. Perfume, the price of which is approximately 5-6 thousand rubles, is in demand among many girls.
Each of Gauthier's perfumes is interesting in its own way, each of the fragrances is unique, and the design of the bottle speaks of the non-standard creative potential of its creator. But still, in recent years, the basis of all Jean-Paul Gaultier perfumes is his very first fragrances - Classique and Le Male.
