Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Summer 2012 is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012. Le Male Summer 2012 opens with Lavender, Cardamom, and Mint, settles into a heart of Green and Grass, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Summer 2012 carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

A divisive summer flanker that some swear is identical to the original Le Male, while others praise its unique minty twist. Prepare for an uplifting, fresh green blast, but don't expect it to cling around all day.

About

Le Male Summer 2012 kicks off with a spirited, verdant burst of mint and grassy notes, softened by the familiar comfort of lavender and a hint of spicy cardamom. As it settles, the freshness gives way to a creamy vanilla and musk base, underscored by warm sandalwood, keeping it light and approachable. It's a brighter, breezier take on the classic.
