Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier is lavender and vanilla: barbershop clean at the start, soft and sweet by the end. The opening is cool and herbal, with mint, lavender, bergamot, a pinch of cardamom and the bitter green of artemisia. Cinnamon and caraway then warm things up, and orange blossom brings a gentle floral glow. Vanilla and tonka lead a creamy base, with amber, sandalwood and cedar keeping it grounded. It dates from 1995 and is mostly chosen by men, though anyone who likes a warm, powdery lavender will feel at home in it. Voters pick it for autumn and winter nights, and some wear it to work. On longevity the vote leans long-lasting; on sillage it leans moderate. Start with a 10ml decant and give it a few weeks of cooler days and late nights.
