    What do reviewers say about Gaultier² and Amalaya?

    Some fragrances ask you to work for it. Gaultier² doesn't. The jasmine opens sweet and immediate, the ambergris settles warm and close, and the whole composition unfolds with an intimacy that feels.Gaultier²
    The powdery-creamy drydown is what keeps people coming back. It doesn't announce itself. It lingers. For someone who wants presence without performance, that's the whole point.Amalaya
