Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Le Male EDT
Irresistibly cozy and seductive, Le Male remains an icon for its creamy lavender-vanilla blend. It’s bold, warm and sweet, with a magnetic projection that defines classic masculine sensuality.
Acquired
Our Verdict - No.121 Le Male EDP
Eden's aftershave chases Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male's iconic mint-lavender-vanilla barbershop signature - the shape is unmistakably there, but the celebrated sillage and lasting power of the 1995 classic are considerably scaled back.
