  The fragrance is incredible. I think everyone, upon hearing ‘In Blue’, expected something summery, but we should have read the name twice and understood it. It’s a fresher version of Le Male Le Parfum, maintaining the same DNA with vibrations of dusty lavender underneath a very vibrant and refreshing lavender note. The first thing you’ll smell is powdered lavender, with a majestic touch and a relaxing atmosphere. Then, after 5-10 minutes, the aromatic part of the star anise intensifies, revitalizing the fragrance very intensely. Star anise is the star, very aromatic; the lavender softens on the edges with an amber nuance that begins to slide. It’s a very soft note of anise and lavender that becomes calming and comforting, warm like a bubble around the skin, no longer annoying. It’s an intimate aroma that doesn’t bother, but invites you to come closer and smell it if you detect it. The benzoin doesn’t eclipse the lavender, which remains present all the time, and the anise preserves the freshness. 3-4 hours of good projection, without being annoying or cloying. From 4 to 6 hours, it’s a bubble around you, behaving like Le Parfum, perhaps a bit more noticeable in the air due to the star anise. Between 7 and 8 hours, it becomes more intimate, and by hour 8, it almost smells like skin. In my case, total duration of 9 hours with 3 or 4 applications. Definitely for fall, winter, and spring. Maybe summer, but only if you don’t have hot summers. Full notes: Anise, Lavender, Benzoin, Juniper Berries, Black Pepper, Bergamot, Aquatic Marine Breeze, Musk, Myrrh, and Vanilla. It’s a slightly spicy Aromatic Fougère.

  Puig kicks off the year like a freight train full of new releases, setting the tone for the season with its classic lineup of launches that will define trends. With Valentine’s Day around the corner, the new references parade one after another without respite. Among them is Le Male in Blue, arriving well-accompanied in the car of surprises alongside Le Beau Narcisse, Phantom in Red, Fame in Love, 1 Million Night Elixir, Million Gold Pure Diamonds, Scandal Elixir, 212 VIP Black Cab, Invictus Elixir, or the special Valentine’s edition of Good Girl Blush, and others. Those of us who have lived the Le Male explosion as true fans of Gaultier’s sailors who revolutionized perfumery probably don’t need any argument beyond pure collecting to not walk past the striped blue bottle of this edition. The review would be even better if it weren’t for a note unusual in the line: star anise. This version doesn’t skip the minty breath with oceanic, aromatic lavender, but for once, it’s not the mint but the anise that takes over the dry-down with its sweet nuances, its liqueur-like breath, and its Oriental exoticism. Don’t overlook its performance on the skin and its tenacity, more typical of high-concentration extracts; no wonder it’s presented as an Eau de Parfum, a detail that’s appreciated in a seasonal limited edition. It’s not summery like Le Beau, but warm and ambered, fitting for the trending barber-shop aromatics.

  This fragrance is incredible. We thought ‘In Blue’ would be summery, but you have to read the name twice to get it. It’s a fresher take on Le Male Le Parfum, sharing the same DNA but with dusty lavender under a very vibrant, fresh lavender note. At first, it smells like powdered lavender—majestic and relaxing. After 5-10 minutes, the star anise intensifies, revitalizing everything. It’s the star, very aromatic, while the lavender softens with an amber touch. A soft blend of anise and lavender that calms and comforts. It’s warm, like a bubble on the skin; it’s no longer annoying. It’s intimate; it doesn’t invade, it invites you to get closer. The benzoin doesn’t overpower the lavender, which lasts the whole time, while the anise keeps the freshness. 3-4 hours of good projection, not annoying or cloying. From 4 to 6 hours, it’s your personal bubble, like Le Parfum but more noticeable due to the anise. From 7 to 8 hours, it becomes more intimate, and by hour 8, it smells almost like skin. In my case, with 3 or 4 applications, it lasts 9 hours. Definitely for fall, winter, and spring. Maybe summer if it’s not too hot. Notes: Anise, Lavender, Benzoin, Juniper Berries, Black Pepper, Bergamot, Marine Breeze, Musk, Myrrh, and Vanilla. It’s a slightly spicy Aromatic Fougère.

  This perfume has disappointed me. The anise scent on my skin is non-existent; it smells like ozone and very artificial, it’s fresh and projects well in the opening. On my father, however, the anise note is more noticeable than on me. It’s not going to break sales, it’s a very experimental flanker.

  Literal. Smells like spoiled bar soap, as they said. That anise scent since I knew about it gave me the creeps, and I was right. I remember Invictus Platinum smelled like that note even if it wasn’t declared or some accord made it feel that way. I went in with that bias. I tried this, and while it’s not excessively old or vintage, it gave me vibes of when an older man just finished working out, puts on perfume, and mixed with sweat, it results in this. I don’t understand why this would be ‘In Blue’. The bottle is very pretty, but the perfume rather gives a red or yellow sensation. At least it’s a limited edition. Years ago, maybe this would have been crazy, but in these times, it’s démodé.

  As it dries, it smells like play-doh.

  I caught Le Male Le Parfum out of stock and looked for something less serious but equally versatile in JPG. I tried In Blue, and the anise opening left me speechless, something I’d never smelled before. I waited hours to see its evolution, and honestly, it’s the first time an odor like this has obsessed me as much as Le Male In Blue. I bought the 125 ml, and it’s the best option: literally one of the longest-lasting JPG Le Males, and it’s noticeable. I put it on at 7:00 PM, and until 9:30 AM the next day, while cleaning, bursts of scent were coming off. At first, it projects a lot; at a dinner with my partner and friends, I hadn’t received so many compliments in ages. It was noticeable at 2-3 meters without spraying a ton. It’s super versatile and my favorite. If it were up to me, I’d give it 10, but I give it 10 because it’s worth it 😂. The only downside is that it’s a limited edition. I hope they release more because, once I find a perfume like this, I can’t do without it.

  Smells like old bar soap, but in a bad way.

  Literal. It smells like stale bar soap, as they said. That anise scent that I knew about before trying it already gave me bad vibes, and I was right. I remember that Invictus Platinum smelled like that note even though it wasn’t declared or some accord gave that sensation. I went in with that bias. I tried this, and while it’s not excessively old or vintage, it gave me vibes of when an older gentleman just finished working out, puts on perfume, and mixed with that and the sweat results in this perfume. I don’t understand why this would be ‘In Blue’. The bottle is very pretty, but the perfume rather gives you a red or yellow vibe. At least it’s a limited edition.

  I had the chance to pick up this perfume. My Le Male Le Parfum ran out, so I went to try something new. I wanted something not too serious, but more versatile within the JPG line. They let me try Le Male In Blue, and at first, I was surprised by the opening, that touch of anise, something I’d never heard of. I waited a few hours to see what effect it had, and honestly, it had been a while since I was obsessed with a scent like this, as happened with Le Male In Blue. I bought the 125ml format, and honestly, it’s the best option I could have made. Literally, it’s one of the Le Males from JPG that lasts and projects the most for me. One day I applied it at 7:00 PM, and it lasted until the next day at 9:00-9:30 AM because I started cleaning the house and I could smell it in gusts. The first hours project a lot. I was at dinner with my partner and friends, and it had been a while since I received so many compliments on my perfume. Not only that, they could smell it from 2-3 meters away, and I didn’t overdo it. Honestly, I think it’s very versatile and for me, it’s my favorite. If it were up to me, I’d give it a 10, but I give it a 10 because it’s worth it. The only negative is that it’s a limited edition. I hope they make more because once I find a perfume like this, I can’t do without it.

  I’m not going to base myself on reviews from others, YouTube videos, or third-party opinions… As a knowledgeable fan of the entire Le Male line, I have about 20 different editions. For me, it’s the base of the original Le Male EDT, mint, vanilla, and lavender, hybridized with Le Male Le Parfum, with a lot of anise, you turn up the vanilla and add the mint from the Popeye/Superman/André editions. As a die-hard lover of the original Le Male and having used the famous BPIs the most in my youth, I love the twist/update they created for the 30th anniversary. The bottle is beautiful, plus what the team wanted was put to a vote on their website, and the winner was this one, and I’m glad. After 3 days of continuous use, I can say my experience is quite notable in terms of longevity: the projection is nuclear for the first 2 hours, and the duration has been great without me needing to be a tracker for about 8 or 9 hours. For me, one of the best of the entire Le Male line.

  After using it about 4 times with a good amount of sprays, I couldn’t agree more with Adry_slim’s description: it’s like a mix of Le Male, Le Parfum, and the EDT underneath. In the opening, it keeps that creamy part of Le Parfum but without the iris, which I hate that note, and replaces it with anise and a quite present sweet lavender. As it dries, it seems like parts of the EDT, like the mint, only here the mint feels more spicy. Overall, it gives the vibe of several perfumes but isn’t exact to any of them. In use, I find it quite versatile without going to extremes: not for much heat, not for much cold, more for spring and autumn at any time, in summer I’d use it at night.

  Dropped. Another one that isn’t worth the purchase. I’m getting bored and tired of this type of scent; it’s not suitable for much heat or cold, only for spring and autumn, which in my place are just a couple of weeks. It’s not fresh enough for the heat nor warm enough for the cold. I’ve had this happen with other JPG flankers before: you have to spray a lot for it to last anything. If you use it for cold weather and spray generously, don’t even touch it for heat. Most of the flankers JPG releases that last a year are a huge bluff; very few make the cut. They keep making sales like hot dogs to anyone who buys something vulgar or simple like this. Let’s see if they release the Le Male this year that I hope will be on par with the Elixir or Elixir Absolu, because this doesn’t fit my tastes and seems like throwing money away. So far this year, not a single launch has been worth it. And this one, in less than a month, you can already find it for under 70 euros, which says it all. I see it as a perfume for someone starting a collection, a daily scent. I don’t recommend it, but as always, there will be people who will love it; tastes vary. When you’ve tested so many perfumes and then try this… you see how they blatantly deceive you.

  To me, at least on the blotter, it reminds me of the typical sweetness/scent of Le Male Le Parfum or the Elixir but with a fresher and more sophisticated touch.

  As a first impression, it does have Le Male DNA, but it gets monotonous when it comes to the sweetness. It’s not a disaster, but it bores me a bit.

  Sprayed twice dry. I went in with zero expectations due to the claimed similarity to Le Male and Le Parfum, and it surprised me for the better. It’s the base of the classic Le Male but with more emphasis on the florals as it dries. It’s a very rich scent, although I don’t see it as very masculine.

  After using it about 4 times with a good amount of sprays, I couldn’t agree more with the description: it’s like a mix of Le Male Le Parfum with the EDT below. The opening keeps that creamy part of Le Parfum but without the iris, which I hate, and swaps it for anise with a quite present sweet lavender. As it dries down, it seems like the EDT part, with the mint, though here it feels more spicy. Overall, it gives the vibe of several perfumes but isn’t exact to any; in use, I see it as quite versatile without going to extremes, neither in much heat nor much cold. Ideal for spring and fall at any time, or in summer at night.
