Everything done right !
In my opinion, the fragrance begins quite surprisingly with a strong, heavy fruit that is reminiscent of a cherry/raspberry liqueur!
However, it then changes quite quickly to its base scents of leather and sandalwood, which are spiced up by light oud and cardamom.
Since, to my taste, the oud is not in the foreground, but rather spices and plays around the fragrance very discreetly, it is very pleasant to wear and gives it that special something.
The fragrance progression is positively linear and yet it has surprises in store due to its complexity, so that you can always perceive the fruit and subtle other nuances in between.
I also see the not so strong H&S as an advantage rather than a problem, which means that the fragrance can really be used and worn in all areas. Which is not the case with many other fragrances in this direction.

Previous feedback from those around me, even after I hardly noticed the fragrance myself, has been thoroughly positive.
It's not for nothing that the fragrance is at the top of the ratings.
But what is a good sign, and probably not just for me, is when I simply feel like putting the fragrance on to enjoy it myself, which is absolutely the case here.

My conclusion: If you want to go in the direction of wood, leather and light oud, you can't go wrong with this fragrance, or rather, you can do everything right!

Coniferous forest in a hailstorm...original!
...I have already described this fragrance in a similar way in my statement and even after some time, tested again and again, I still feel the same way.
The fragrance evokes associations of coniferous forest, snow, moss, mint and woodwork for me.
It seems a little rough and uncouth and lacks a little, how shall I put it, harmony in the accords.
But it is an original fragrance and definitely not mainstream!
Personally, I find it difficult to wear, because the longer the fragrance develops on the skin, a strong mint comes to the fore, which is especially active on leather jackets for weeks...and that's not my thing at all.
And now ?
Should we just forget it and dismiss it as an original fragrance, which it certainly is, and spray it from time to time when we want to be "at home in the woods"?
Certainly not !
If someone is looking for a fragrance with the above-mentioned attributes and it can also be angular and edgy, they can become active here.
I imagine that in the right ambience and with the right clothing, in the direction of nature, you can definitely achieve an effect.
I wouldn't want to categorize it seasonally, but it's probably best suited for outdoors.
As always, the bottle is a matter of taste, but it's fine. Only the refillable one, with the LED, I don't find so optimal.

Tip, as the fragrance is under the radar, it's definitely worth giving it a try!

The specialist
Among the already wonderful fragrances in the Le Male range, one has a special place.
From the original Le Male from 1995 to the Elixir from 2023, each has its pros and cons and areas in which they are best suited or worn.

But one stands out in particular, which in my view has only one task and that is to stand out!

Please don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that Ultra Male is the best of the bunch, but when it comes to performing, the others have a hard time keeping up.... don't need them either, they have their strengths in other areas.

So, if you are looking for a fragrance or already have one that you want to wear especially for parties, celebrations or just to stand out, Ultra Male with its extremely sweet fruity pear is hard to beat. The synthetic is also part of it and is very fitting to the overall work.
The prerequisite for an "eye-catching" fragrance is of course a strong H&S, which is really given here.

Now there is probably still the issue that this fragrance is mainly suitable for younger people.....and yes, it is!
But I would definitely also consider it as an option for "older" people.

Another tip: Most people who are active here know this of course, but I used to make the same mistake when I went to parties, don't start with deodorants or light fragrances, in the worst case only a small amount, but always look for a BeastMode fragrance!
You want to be noticed or even stand out and the "specialist" UltraMale is perfect for this!

Who is Tony Iommi ?
And this is exactly where the genius of this fragrance begins!
Tony Iommi is the guitarist of the rock band Black Sabbath, who kicked off the heavy metal wave in the early 70s.
Among fans, Tony is of course an absolute legend and an icon of rock.
The special thing about it, I think, is that Xerjoff didn't take a star that everyone knows and who might have fitted into this image, but rather someone very special who you first have to find out about.
(Only if you're interested, of course, but it's worth it:)

The same applies to the fragrance !
The fragrance starts right away with a veritable explosion of scent, so be careful!
This explosion then settles on a sweet leather scent with the intention of staying.
In between, the passion fruit goes full throttle !
Once the initial excitement has subsided and the sandalwood joins in with a perfect spiciness, it can make you feel like a rock star.

So you will have noticed that I am very enthusiastic about this fragrance.
Of course, you can't wear it all the time and sometimes you don't feel like being a rock star. You should avoid it in the office, you know what I mean, otherwise you probably have a different issue.

H&S are of course extremely strong and difficult to top with conventional fragrances.
The bottle is also great, like almost all Xerjoff bottles.
And as a final treat, the fragrance comes with a guitar pick from Tony, if that's nothing else!
