Om produkten

Buying fragrance for a man you do not know well is a gamble, and the Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Eau de Toilette Gift Set is the version of that gamble with the shortest odds. The reason is the scent itself. Mint arrives first, cold and bracing, the green snap of a leaf torn in half, and it is the opposite of what people expect from a fragrance this well known for sweetness. Lavender takes over and settles things down, herbal and dry, carrying the smell most of us associate with a decent barber. Vanilla then rises underneath and sweetens the whole thing, which is what makes it recognisable from across a room. Three materials in total, handled with unusual care, and the balance between scrubbed and sweet has been imitated far more often than it has been matched. As an eau de toilette it wears lightly enough for daily use and still lasts into an evening without a second application. Two sprays will do, and the mint keeps it from feeling heavy even in a warm room. Boxed as a set, it suits the occasion where presentation counts as much as contents: a secret santa with a real budget, a thank you, a leaving present for someone whose taste you have never had cause to think about. It also saves an argument with the wrapping paper, which on its own is worth something in late December.
