Parfum

High concentration, roughly 20 to 30 percent aromatic oils. Wears long and close to skin, less projection but more intense one-on-one. Meant to be worn sparingly and dabbed rather than sprayed.

Community take

Yes, if you enjoy sweet, bold fragrances that stand out.

Scandal Le Parfum is often described as a sweet and bold fragrance with a strong emphasis on caramel and vanilla. Users note the prominent jasmine at the top, which adds a floral touch to the overall sweetness. The combination of salty and sweet elements creates a unique profile that some find addictive, while others feel it can be overwhelming or too sweet. It is generally recommended for evening wear or special occasions, especially in cooler months. Some users mention that it has a strong presence but can be polarizing due to its sweetness.
