Eau de Toilette

Overview

Classic translates Beckham’s interest in traditional menswear and contemporary style into fragrance.

Released in 2013, Aurélien Guichard’s composition begins with the bright, fizzy idea of a gin and tonic before settling into aromatic woods and warmth. It balances the crispness of a cologne with a more rounded woody character.

The textured glass bottle was designed by Carré Basset and became the visual starting point for a whole family, including Classic Blue and Classic Summer. The original is the one to know first if you want to understand that collection’s fresh-but-dressed-up direction.

A crisp starting point

Classic has a fresh, aromatic idea with a gin-and-lime twist. It is a sensible candidate if you want to explore the Beckham range without heading straight for leather or smoky woods. Those seeking a very sweet fragrance may prefer another direction. Compare the original with Classic Blue rather than treating them as interchangeable.
