Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male In Blue EDP

Description

Le Male In Blue takes Jean Paul Gaultier's iconic lavender DNA and dials it up into a potent, sweet-spicy interpretation that punches well above a typical fresh fragrance.

Composed by master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian for the house of Jean Paul Gaultier (France) and released in 2026 as a limited-edition Eau de Parfum, this is not the breezy aquatic the name suggests. Reviewers describe a vivid, herbaceous lavender opening laced with a powerful anise note that softens into a warm, sweet drydown reminiscent of Le Male Le Parfum — with potency that rivals Ultra Male.

Scent Character
