The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015, Le Male Summer 2015 by Jean Paul Gaultier is a fresh and aromatic interpretation of the classic Le Male. This scent opens with a vibrant blend of lavender and cardamom, creating an immediate sense of freshness and energy. The green notes and mint add a crisp edge that feels invigorating, while the base of vanilla, sandalwood, and musk brings a warm and powdery comfort. Jean Paul Gaultier's brand ethos of inclusivity and irreverence is reflected in this fragrance, making it an embodiment of modern elegance and versatility.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a lasting effect. The green and aromatic top notes are most prominent in the first hour, so you might want to reapply lightly after that to maintain its fresh character throughout the day.
