Scandal! Eau de Parfum is a floral perfume with gardenia, honey and patchouli notes, created by Daphné Bugey, Fabrice Pellegrin and Christophe Raynaud. Since the first edition of the Scandal! Eau de Parfum, conditioned in its iconic bottle and stopper, several additional fragrances have been launched, including a matching line of Scandal! fragrances for men (contained in a different bottle). The line of Scandal! fragrances for women includes: Scandal by Night! (2018), Scandal à Paris! (2019), So Scandal! (2020), and Scandal Absolu! (2024). Scandal pour homme! (for men) was launched in 2021.
