Perfumers
"Le Male EDT is the original fragrance in Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male line, created by Francis Kurkdjian and released in 1995. It became famous for pairing classic barbershop-style lavender freshness with an unexpectedly sweet, warm vanilla-tonka base, helping define a more playful 1990s masculine style. The scent opens aromatic and minty, develops into a spicy floral heart, and dries down into a creamy ambered sweetness. Its profile is often described as an oriental fougere, with both fresh and sensual facets. The fragrance is also inseparable from its iconic striped torso bottle and metal can packaging. Over time, it has remained one of the brand's best-known and most commercially successful masculine signatures."
