The Golden Autumn in a Bottle

If you already feel anxious about your impending winter depression at the end of summer, this fragrance is the aromatherapy for the perfect start to autumn,
welcoming winter with open arms.

It starts off lightly synthetic minty and with spicy lavender.
This fresh opening is the last homage to summer for you.
A positive conclusion that seems to greet you with good feelings for the coziest time of the year.

The distinctive JPG Le Male DNA reveals itself shortly after,
predictable, loud but not too brutal to destroy the harmony.
Your thoughts wander, despite the coziness, there is more to be had this year.
Just like this fragrance, you don’t confine yourself, between warm blankets, the crackling fire, and your favorite film series that you binge-watch every year.
Club, bar, and sociability - with this aura - anything is possible.

The scent now develops into a sweet masculine daredevil.
Tonka and honey quickly take over the fragrance.
I also perceive cinnamon and tobacco but quite subtly, woven into the elixir.
An autumn harmony that is unmatched.

As it progresses, the fragrance becomes more rounded.
The resinous sweet labdanum becomes more present and adds a truly beautiful vanilla accord as it fades.
The scent trail that you have carried with you for hours,
now lingers on your clothing and skin.

During this time, even without a hail of compliments,
people have caught your vibe,
soon wrapping themselves in thick sweaters,
stylish coats, and elegant shawls to join you,
to usher in this time with pumpkin spice hot drinks.
This fragrance marks the beginning of autumn for me like no other.

I have never been a big fan of the typical JPG DNA,
but this fragrance came to me at just the right time last year.
Under the radar, at the completely wrong season in the elixir hype of the fragrance houses.
Half a year later, at the right time, it was on everyone’s lips and rightly so.
This piece is an elixir that truly deserves its name!
Longevity and sillage are very intense, I would almost call it beast mode.
It is niche and deep - despite the designer touch.
