Le Mâle Jean Paul Gaultier 1995 Eau de Toilette
4
Somewhere in a hotel room, in the mid 90's...we found each other.
That's what Le Male was, it was Dior Sauvage - the lavender version, it was the only one of its kind, it smelled either male or female, very metrosexual, yet, everyone loved and had it. Lavender, mint, and vanilla...no one will ever complain about this combo in life.
It works here, its soothing, sexy, in your face but still delicious. At the time, scents like these were either very rare or far too expensive. At the 60-70 dollar price range, this was the winter scent king. Some have used it for summer, but even as an EDT it stay on and has a powerful sillage. When I first tried this as a kid, not only was I amazed on how long it lasted, but it was complimented heavily alongside Curve...women just love lavender.
The bottle design is 10/10, it was daring to be polarizing in the 90's....you remember, when colognes had "exciting" square and or circle shapes, this was the much needed combo breaker. It takes designers like Paco or Carolina almost going full kitsch, to recreate such a polarizing bottle. They do their part, but Le Male holds the crown.
If you love or even like lavender, just buy it, the bonuses of vanilla and mint are just added compliment pullers, and in general it soothing smell...there's a reason lavender essential oils ar always top tier.
