Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier

Le Male by Jean Paul Gaultier is catalogued as a men's fragrance. How long a fragrance holds depends as much on skin type and climate as on the bottle: heat lifts it faster, dry skin holds it less. Two or three sprays is usually plenty; rubbing your wrists together crushes the opening notes and shortens what follows. Whether it is discounted this week says more about the shop's stock than about the product. Smaller bottles are easier to finish while the juice is fresh; a large one earns its keep only if this is a scent you wear daily. The best deal and the cheapest sticker price are not always the same listing once delivery is counted.
