Fragile
Jean Paul Gaultier (1999)

Move over Fracas, your queen bitch crown has been stolen by this Vogueing tuberose.
Throwing shade and blowing kisses, vitriolic and alluring by turns, it’s a Grand Statement scent in the style of Diva or White Diamonds, except it’s not a good idea to take it seriously; I’m not sure Fragile does (it’s certainly not fragile) and I doubt the King of Eurotrash, Gaultier, or Kirkdjian his Partner in Camp are too bothered about how people see their feather boa’d turkey of a tuberose – who’s ready at any moment to rip off the costume and dash to the dancefloor, dazzling with blinding handiwork – revolving like a windmill round his neatly coiffured head.
Once imagined, never forgotten, this is the perfume ambience to Madonna’s video.
Strike the pose…

there is nothing wrong with this beautifull creation! ;-) i love it WAY more then his sassy Classique or Madame (blagh) wich is more water then perfumerather purchase this one then one of his newer ones, trust me on this one :-pfragile has amazing staying power wich i can't say from his first and latest perfume I heard rumors that this is gonna be a discontinued (to be)?? Well im gonna purchase it very soon before it runs out Thumbs Up for this elegant,romantic,sexy perfume!

I tested it yesterday and was in tumult - to buy or not to buy. Fragile is a democratic tuberose for those who can't bear it's bloody animalic creamy fragrance(as in Caron's tuberose for instance). It is not a soliflore surely. It is just a polite idea of tuberose. It won't irritate people arround you. I did not buy it. May be because I wanna smell like true tuberose - non-wearbale and unbearable.

Hideous and confused tuberose in the same vein as Amarige. I haven't actually encountered this on anyone in person, thank God.

I'm struck not only by the polar oppositeness of the two different presentations of jasmine, but also by the alliterative similarity of the names: Fracas => Fragile. Fragile is a softer, more modern Fracas. Personally, I'm such a fan of Fracas that I find this a a bit of a bore, but it is very good interpretation and it is nicely put together. Its modernness has a definite appeal and is creatively impressive. If you want TUBEROSE, get Fracas… if you want tuberose petite with a more modern bite, Fragile is certainly more than good enough to merit investigation.

Tacky packaging, great fragrance!My girlfriend has this and the Eau de Toilette version.I prefer this one: can detect everything in this perfume - although I am usually more turned by things like Opium and Chanel No. 5, I like this one very much.Feminine, makes a statement, and doesn't go overboard with the florals. Does it quite nicely.Unlike certain other fragrances, the Tuberose in this is not too sweet, but somewhat natural smelling.The main reason why I like this concentration more, is because the EdT reminds me a little of Paris by YSL.$$$Still, very nice, makes a statement, romantic.
