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.

About

Le Male Summer 2014 kicks off with a familiar aromatic hit of lavender and mint, brightened by a spicy cardamom twist. The fresh green heart of grass and green leaves soon emerges, softening the impact of its predecessor. It settles into a warm, creamy base of sandalwood, gentle musk, and a subtle vanilla, maintaining a fresh yet comforting aura.
