I'm so pumped up for this! Le Male is a great frag, and this to emphasize a more "icy" attitude, are you kidding me? If this turns out to preserve the essential sexy Le Male vibe, while dancing with the icy factor, we got a big hit here.
Very interested (despite the awful bottles of the LeMale line) if this can capture both strong Mint, and strong neroli/orange blossom notes WITHOUT any excess candied-fruit aspects, or without the overly sweet base of LeMale.

And he should be capable of making a great spring/summer flanker of it by reduction, then addition.

Won't be running to pick this one up. But I will give it a fair shake and sample it when it comes out.
Sounds like Fleur Du male to me
Any of you inside folks have any information/have tried this yet?? I'm SOOOOO excited.
My Current Fab Five Fragrances:
1) Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male
2) YSL La Nuit De L'homme
3) Acqua Di Gio Profumo
4) Valentino Uomo Intense
5) Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male
Macys will carry it this spring, skipping over Kokorico & Kokorico Night.
!00% certain of this.
It's nice that Macy's will have it, but a shitload of dudes will be buying this, a little bit of exclusivity might have been nice. This could be my clubbing scent for warmer weather, and it'd suck if half the dudes be wearing this
oh boy, ANOTHER le male flanker. like we dont have enough of them
I got an email today from The Perfume Shop to say that this is now in their stores in the UK and Ireland.
Smelled it today and it reminded me of a much sweeter version of Gucci Pour Homme 2, mixed with Joop Jump. Was alright, really fresh but nothing special. Was surprised how long it lasted too.
Btw the perfume shop had the new Davidoff The Game, but forgot all about it.
Oh cool. I'll check them both out tomorrow!
The last time I enjoyed a Davidoff fragrance though, was...uh...never.
UK guys are lucky. It's gonna be a while till this hit USA Macys.

Of noble hearts, I am the noblest - and the most generous of those that yearn to give love in return. - I am a human being, I love death and I love life."

Bottle looks awesome. Similar color design scheme to Pure Shot...which looks awesome.
Boots have this in stock now also. I tried it an hour ago. I hate to use the word again, but it really is incredibly generic stuff. It reminds me a lot of Boss Bottled. Perfectly pleasant, but profoundly unremarkable.
Seeking: Bottles/decants : of Pomegranate Noir, Midnight in Paris EDP, Feeling Man, Essence of John Galliano, Azzaro pour Homme (vintage),...etc.
Seeking decant/sample of PdE Ambre Russe, Jil Sander Feeling Man, Comme des Garcons 2 Man, Giorgio VIP, ....etc. I have samples to swap.

Those that have smelled it, do you like it more than Le Male?
I tried it the other day, and, although I like Le Male (and Fleur du Male, which I thought was an excellent flanker), I agree with Riverwide: I'm afraid Le Beau Male smelt very ordinary to me. 'Generic' was the first word that came to mind...
Saw this at my local drug store, sadly no tester.

Sorry for the poor pic.
The house's last male frag, KoKo whatever, was a HUGE flop for JPG. Then went back to the torso flacon immediately.
Will snatch this up as soon as it comes available. Kokorico was available at Beauty Encounter soon after it was released. Have no doubt this will be available here soon.
I am surprised to see such poor reviews of Kokoriko. I think its wonderful take on chocolate is quite well done. Dry down is quite beautiful.
Thanks for sharing, included this one on my test list.
Was able to try it today, not good. Boring and generic, reminds me of one of the many sport scents that came out last year, just not sure which one.
I'm surprised at the amount of generic references. This has a noticeable mint & absinthe accord in the top notes, which is hardly a common aspect of designer scents.
I thought it was better than Le Male. Projection and longevity seem above average.
