While on an overseas phone call with my mom, I told her to buy me a small bottle of le male after having run out of options (no rochas man, lolita lempicka au masculin, or body kouros). She asked me, "Are you talking about the 'blue' one?". Thinking that, "of course, the original le male comes in a blue bottle", I said "yes". Not knowing that she was actually referring to the TIN CAN, I unknowingly consented to her purchase of the summer edition. Now, should I be upset? I've heard that the summer edition is nothing but a watered-down, inferior version of the original. Note that I usually get to own only 1 new bottle of perfume every year due to my being a student, in a country where part time jobs are uncommon. Does the Le Male Summer edition have ANY redeeming qualities? The only thing that might salvage this fiasco is the fact that I live in a tropical country near the equator. Finally should I stick with it, or should I just give it to someone as a gift? Projection really matters to me, and I would greatly appreciate it if someone can shed some light regarding this.
