Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male, the 1995 eau de toilette composed by Francis Kurkdjian and marketed for men, is an aromatic vanilla fragrance. Herbal aromatics lead, followed closely by vanilla and sweetness, with a noticeable powdery side.
The opening is cool and herbal: lavender gives a clean, barbershop freshness, mint a bright chill, cardamom an aromatic spice and bergamot a citrus lift. The heart adds orange blossom for a soft, soapy floral note and cinnamon for warmth. The base is where its sweetness lives, with vanilla and tonka bean giving a creamy, slightly powdery richness, and sandalwood and cedar a smooth, woody frame.
Wearers find longevity moderate to long, with a moderate sillage. Votes are spread across seasons, with autumn and spring slightly ahead, and it is worn by day and night alike. It suits evenings out, office wear in cooler months and anyone who enjoys the classic lavender and vanilla pairing that it helped popularise.
