The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2007 by Jean Paul Gaultier and crafted by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, Fleur du Mâle is an aromatic fougère that challenges traditional gender norms. The composition opens with the fresh green notes of petitgrain and neroli, creating a crisp yet sophisticated top layer. This gives way to chamomile and basil in the base, adding warmth and depth without overpowering the initial freshness. Fleur du Mâle embodies Jean Paul Gaultier's ethos of inclusivity and diversity, offering a scent that is as versatile as it is elegant.
For best results, apply Fleur du Mâle directly to pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The top notes are particularly vibrant and dissipate quickly, so it's important to layer them over the base notes to maintain balance throughout the day.
