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.

With moderate sillage and a fresher, less intense profile than its predecessor, Jean Paul Cool fits well into casual and office settings, especially during the day. Its lighter nature means it's not ideal for formal events, but it's a pleasant choice for everyday wear.

About

Jean Paul Cool is the 2003 special edition bottle of Le Male Cologne Tonique, sold in a frosted blue bottle. It opens with lavender, mint, cardamom, bergamot and tarragon, which gives it the cool, herbal start that the name promises. The heart adds cinnamon, neroli and caraway for a little spice and a soft floral lift. The base turns warmer with tonka bean, vanilla, amber, sandalwood and cedarwood, which links it back to the sweet, woody Le Male family. Expect a fresh, minty cologne that settles into a creamy, woody finish. The notes come from Parfumo's entry for the Cologne Tonique this bottle was made for. The house has not published its own list, so treat them as the best available.
