Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Summer 2011 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011. Le Male Summer 2011 opens with Lavender, Cardamom, and Mint, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Summer 2011 carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

A divisive summer flanker - some dismiss it as a lazy cash-grab, while others laud its lighter, fresher take on the original Le Male DNA. It's a surprisingly effective warm-weather vanilla with floral charm.

While some find longevity an issue, its lighter, fresher profile and slightly sweet nature make it excellent for casual outings and dates, particularly in warmer weather. It's too playful for formal wear, and its mild projection means it works well for office environments where you don't want to overpower.

About

This scent opens with a lively, aromatic burst of cool mint and classic lavender, spiced gently by cardamom. The heart blooms with smooth orange blossom, creating a floral core that's unexpectedly prominent for a masculine fragrance. It then settles into a creamy base of vanilla and sandalwood, softened by a clean, comforting musk. It's a sweet, powdery, and fresh take on a familiar profile.
