La Belle Le Parfum Jean Paul Gaultier 2021

I love the original! As I usually find the Intense versions even better, I was determined to buy this one without giving it much of a sniff. Luckily, I went to the perfumery and didn't order it online. After spraying it on, I immediately grabbed the chic Gaultier tin. But ... after a short stroll through the store, the fragrance developed quite difficultly on my skin for a short time: That extreme sweetness like the original was still there, but too dense for me. There was also an extremely tart undertone, not masculine, but rather too darkly spiced. It lasted a very long time, but I quickly swapped the tin for another of the original version. Strong sillage and longevity, but too harsh for me. Still, not a bad fragrance!
