Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Airlines is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2020, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Le Male Airlines opens with Bergamot, Lavender, Cardamom, and Mint, settles into a heart of Caraway, Orange Blossom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Airlines carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mystery, a re-packaged 'Aviator' with the same notes as the OG Le Male, apparently. But don't let the confusion put you off - it's a solid, spicy-sweet crowd-pleaser that reviewers adore for its versatility and decent performance.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Bold cardamom and crisp mint launch this fragrance into an aromatic flight, uplifted by fresh bergamot and herbaceous artemisia. As it settles, a warm heart of cinnamon and caraway emerges, softened by delicate orange blossom. The dry-down lands on a plush bed of vanilla and tonka bean, supported by earthy sandalwood and cedar, with a lingering amber glow.
