The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012, Le Male Gladiator by Jean Paul Gaultier is a powerful Oriental Fougere fragrance that combines the strength of ancient Roman warriors with modern masculinity. The composition opens with a fresh mint and aromatic lavender, creating an invigorating contrast to the warm vanilla, amber, and tonka bean base notes. This limited edition captures the essence of bravery and passion for chivalry, making it a distinctive addition to Jean Paul Gaultier's iconic Le Male collection.
Apply one or two sprays to your pulse points. The fresh minty top notes are immediate but short-lived, giving way to the aromatic and warm base notes that linger for hours. This fragrance is best suited for daytime wear when its invigorating freshness can shine.
