  1. Very similar to Le Male, but without that sweet and minty touch. It dries down straight to woody and spicy notes, which is where the resemblance lies. It has a balsamic feel and feels more masculine than the original. Good fragrance for the price.

    It’s very similar to Le Male, but less dense and the notes feel cleaner, giving it a slight edge over JPG. Medium longevity and good projection; I find it less intense than its Red and Black siblings. The packaging is simply magnificent.
