My ocean scents are this, erolfa and sel marine. Of the 3 this smells the most like the ocean. Imagine you are walking along a rustic beach on a cloudy cool day, and the sea smashes against the...

I didn't like this scent at first. I found it amateurish and a bit redundant. I gave my sample away to a buddy that's a womanizer. End of story. I walk into Scent Bar looking for Wode by...

Vetiver by Guerlain, 1961
Reviewed by Mrpleasent

The lemony opening reminds me of old people. - it's not unpleasant and smells fresh and clean but I just can't past the smell of the beige bowls club brigade. After a while the vetiver comes...

The spices in this are very Christmassy making it a good choice in winter. The opening is a little sweet in an original santal sort of way but after an hour or so it mellows out. I've worn it to...

I just got a bottle of it as a gift. I tried to search for opinions but I cant even find a site that sells it!
Has anyone tried it?

It's actually a cheap knockoff that's not authorized or made by Beaute Prestige International (Jean Paul Gaultier's fragrance licensee). If you look closely, you'll see that the web address on the can is "www.lemale-ipg.com" and not the correct "www.lemale-jpg.com".

A lot of bottles of this stuff are floating around the Internet (mainly eBay) and unscrupulous retailers. The packaging and bottles of the knockoff "Blue" and the real Le Male look so close that it's gotten to the point where B.P.I. had to make a slight change to the real Le Male bottle, adding a "GAULTIER" stamp to the top rear of the bottle.

My advice: give it a pitch or contact B.P.I. via the Jean Paul Gaultier website. In fact, B.P.I. is looking for these knockoff bottles so they can track it back to the offending company who made this.

Thanks for reply.
What could the Juice be? It smells very similar to Le Male and has the same bottle. It smells really nice to me. Or is it just plain old Le Male?
