Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Inspired by Le Male
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male (1995) - the Francis Kurkdjian lavender-vanilla fougere that became one of the defining masculine signatures of the late 1990s, here translated into a lavender-mint opening over cinnamon and a vanilla-tonka close. Honest dupe-fidelity for daytime and evening masculine wear at a fraction of the designer price.

Our Verdict - Naples
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male (1995) - lavender, cinnamon and vanilla translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.
