The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2023, Le Male Xmas Limited Edition by Jean Paul Gaultier is an aromatic fragrance crafted by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. The composition opens with a fresh and invigorating mint note that gives way to the calming essence of lavender, before settling into a warm vanilla base. This limited-edition scent captures the essence of Jean Paul Gaultier's irreverent style, blending traditional notes in a modern, unexpected way.

How to wear it

For this fragrance, less is more. A light spritz on your pulse points allows the layers to unfold naturally over time. The warm vanilla base emerges gradually, making it perfect for cooler evenings or a cozy holiday gathering.
