The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021, Le Male Xmas Limited Edition by Jean Paul Gaultier is a fragrance that captures the essence of the holiday season. Created by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, this Oriental Fougere composition opens with a fresh and spicy blend of lavender and mint, punctuated by cardamom and artemisia. The heart notes of bergamot, cinnamon, and orange blossom bring warmth and depth, while vanilla, amber, tonka bean, sandalwood, and cedar create a rich, woody base that is both comforting and inviting.
Apply two sprays to ensure that the fresh spicy top notes are balanced by the warm woody base. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to skin rather than in a wide sillage, making it perfect for intimate gatherings or casual wear.
