Le Male Le Parfum - Eau de Parfum Intense - Note di Cardamomo, Lavanda & Iris

A refined, modern take on the classic Le Male, war

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Le Male Le Parfum, launched in 2020 by Jean Paul Gaultier, is an Oriental Eau de Parfum for men, crafted by perfumers Quentin Bisch and Natalie Gracia-Cetto. It reinterprets the iconic Le Male (1995) with a darker, more sophisticated profile, featuring top notes of cardamom, heart notes of lavender and iris, and a base of vanilla, oriental, and woody notes. This fragrance is marketed as a refined, masculine scent, it’s housed in a sleek black torso-shaped bottle with gold accents, signaling its bold yet elegant character. These are my thoughts after trying this sample on my skin. In terms of the fragrance profile, I find this to be warm, spicy, and having a sweet aroma, it’s like a mature evolution of the original Le Male, which I also own. The opening burst of cardamom delivers a soft, spicy warmth, often noted as “smooth” and “refined,” setting a sophisticated tone. The lavender and iris heart notes create a vibrant, slightly powdery floral accord, with the lavender evoking a candied, caramel-like quality that many find irresistible. The base, dominated by creamy vanilla and woody notes, gives a seductive, faintly licorice-like dry-down that feels both cozy and luxurious. I really appreciate its balance of sweetness and spice, to me it’s not overly sweet and I think it’s unique. Longevity is a strong point, I can report 8-10 hours on skin and even longer on clothes, making it reliable for all-day wear. Projection was moderate, it created a noticeable but not overwhelming sillage of about 1-2 meters for the first few hours. This fragrance is awesome due to its versatility, suitable for casual, formal, and evening wear, particularly in fall and winter due to its warm, spicy profile. In terms of the packaging of the full presentation, this features the iconic torso-shaped bottle, now in matte black with gold accents and a red velvet base, it is a standout, almost “a work of art.”

It’s a versatile, compliment-generating fragrance that appeals to a wide audience, particularly for fall/winter wear. This is Ideal for those seeking a masculine yet approachable fragrance, it’s a safe blind buy for fans of the Le Male line, though testing is recommended to ensure compatibility with skin chemistry and climate.

Bold, Warm, and Long-Lasting

I received a sample of Jean Paul Gaultier “Le Male” Le Parfum through Influenster, and I’m seriously impressed. The scent opens with a strong, spicy warmth that feels both masculine and elegant. It has rich notes of cardamom, lavender, and vanilla that blend beautifully, creating a sensual and sophisticated fragrance. The longevity is excellent — it lasted on my skin all day without fading. I’d describe it as a perfect evening or fall/winter scent, though it’s versatile enough for special daytime occasions too. Definitely a standout cologne for anyone who loves deep, intense fragrances. I’m considering getting the full-size bottle!

This smells amazing!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This really surprised me when I first wore it. I was so pleasantly surprised how strong this was and how compatible on my skin this is. Although only a sample, the packaging was first class and the spray nozzle is excellent. I will absolutely be buying a full bottle to add to my collection.

Nice

Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le Parfum is a good scent, but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The scent opens with a rich, spicy sweetness that is appealing at first, but then can feel a bit primitive. Although it lasts quite a while, the scent can feel a bit typical compared to other high-end colognes. It's good for evening wear or colder weather!

High quality cologne

I have loved this application experience! It's great value for the money! The scent strength is amazing! I've had lots of compliments! The ingredients analysis is excellent as well! The packaging quality greatly protected it!

A must have in every collection

🔥 LE MÂLE ELIXIR ABSOLU🔥 Jean Paul Gaultier did NOT hold back with this one. 🏆 If you love sweet, spicy, and seductive vibes, this is your new night-out weapon. ✨ Opening: Explosive lavender + juicy plum—like a spiced cocktail that demands attention . 🌙 Dry Down: Creamy tonka bean & vanilla wrap you in a luxe, smoky-sweet hug. Perfect for dates or winter nights . ⏳ Performance: 8–10 HOURS of sillage that trails like a confident whisper. 💪 Projection? Oh, you’ll be noticed . 🧐 Hot Take: If you own the original Elixir, this feels like its darker, plum-infused twin—less minty, more gourmand. Not groundbreaking but irresistible . 💎 Bottle: Gold-drenched torso? Iconic. Your shelf will shine . Verdict: A bold, unapologetic scent for guys who wanna smell like a luxury dessert with a side of 🔥. Drop a ❤️ if you’re into sweet seduction!

Not for me but others will enjoy

It’s a warm masculine spiced vanilla scent. Not my favorite. I think it would be liked by many people, it’s just not for me. I don’t like vanilla in scents at all and I prefer something a little more gender neutral and this leans heavily into the masculine vibes. If you like rich gourmande scents and want a masculine leaning version you will like it.
