Le Mâle Elixir Jean Paul Gaultier 2023
Ok, ich benutze Le Male Elixir seit etwas mehr als einer Woche, es macht süchtig. Der Auftakt erinnert mich an das OG Le Male auf Steroiden! Sobald man sprüht, bekommt man definitiv eine laute minzige Frische mit etwas Lavendel, ich bekomme definitiv ein wenig Ultra Male und Le Parfum, sobald es anfängt zu trocknen, wobei ersteres prominenter ist. Es dauert eine Weile, bis die Basisnoten durchkommen, dann kommen die magischen Honig- und Tonka-Noten zum Vorschein. Das ist genau das, was ich mir von Le Parfum gewünscht habe, das OG Le Male auf Steroiden. Wenn Sie Ultra Male oder Le Parfum besitzen, ist das Elixir keineswegs überflüssig. Dies ist eine solide Veröffentlichung, greifen Sie zu!

Quentin does it again
Some sequels are mainly big flops .. see the Montblanc Explorer line, Star Wars or even the latest Thor.

However, when you have an ambitious young man who wants to study parfumery, even if he is not a chemist only by chance and the good will of Jean Guichard from Givaudan - we now have such gems like Ganymede, Le Parfum and now Le Male Elixir.

If you smelled Carlisle, Le Parfum, Delina or Bois Imperial .. you will know what the master perfumer does well: Projection and Performance!

When I samples Bois Imperiale, it was literally choking me from the jacket in the next day. Apart from the huge performance, the scents are also very well blended and thought through.

Many houses and perfumers like to play it safe, for the sake of the stakeholders .. but not Mr. Bisch, he will do what he needs to do and do it well.

• Longevity: It will project abot 4 hours then stay close to skin for the whole day of wear and some more.
• This is a playful, sweet scent and if it´s your first JPG bottle then you can´t do anything wrong starting with this one, Bisch does very strong, projecting nice scents and this one is great.

I believe this is a must try scent, maybe the hardcore fans of Le Male will not like it, but it is modern, sweet and has a hint of Code Absolu. It will be perfect for office and business wear, but also with jeans and a white t-shirt.

I love my Le Parfum bottle and I do not feel the need to buy the Elixir, however if you do not have any of the Le Male into your collection, this is the one to start with.

For me it is a one of universe´s mysteries how does PUIG allow such a wonderful creation to come out from their group, when their main target is to create mainstream spams like Phantom, Invictus and such.

Honey Sex
Ever tried Tom Ford Vanilla Sex? This is like transfusing that idea for a honey-rooted fragrance. It's a beautiful gourmand that doesn't waste your time with all sorts of unfinished mixes or stupid excuses but instead delivers an obsolete sensual powerhouse. It's probably one of the fragrances that'll get everyone complimenting you. However, there's a big problem with it. It's really overused. I mean, every time you go to a slightly more formal event, there will probably be two to four different guys wearing this fragrance, which would kind of make you feel like an NPC. However, I believe that this fragrance is rightfully overrated, as it definitely delivers.

One of the best sweet fragrances
This is one of my favorite fragrances. Especially the opening is awesome. It is one of the best openings I've ever smelled. It is very sweet and I love sweet fragrances. The longevity and projection is like a beast. The presentation is also great. You get a strong honey and vanilla note with this fragrance.

Winter wonder
This one opens more freshly than you would expect. It starts off a little synthetic (or alcohol-y?) and harsh to my nose and I personally even find it to be a bit headache-inducing at first. After a while though it becomes this amazingly sweet tonka bean scent. It's not cloying, even though it has a lot of power. There's so much in there that reminds me of cosy winter nights.

It really comes into its own after it has dried down. I absolutely love rewearing a sweater I've sprayed this on a couple days later and being greeted by this warm hug of vanilla and honey.

The performance is quite amazing and it's very reasonably priced for what you're getting, which is probably why it's so popular. I'd advise anyone not to overspray though as it can definitely overpower a room and you'll leave a trail through a building.

Scent more for young people. An overly sweet opening, reminiscent of One Million, which calms down in the drydown with tonka bean and bezoin

Typical Bisch monster projection perfume. The nicest Le Male DNA with tons of mint and lavender. Best buy if you are new to the brand,I like

I do not get the hype. It smells like a mix of all modern fragrances mixed altogether.

Tonka primarily. Feels a little cinnamon-spicy at first and turns into something sweet-ambery. Warm and kind of sweet.
