I really like this scent. Fresh, almost varm and also quite strong at the same time. But absolutely not loud. Actually smells a bit sensual and inviting to my nose. very rich scent, even if the notes are a bit on the thin side.
Do not make the mistake of putting too much on though. It will def. ruin it!
Heady, spicy floral bomb!
Yummy!

For serious neroli lovers only! The heart note of neroli dominates this one almost too much. There are many other many other floral offerings for men. JPG acts like this was the first. For him perhaps. Lavender is a classic mens flower. There is some of that in here as well. I found the drydown to be very similar to Le Male. It lasts for a few days if you dont shower! This is a European fashion-eyebrows raise in the USA. I would get a bottle, yet it is too expensive for what you get.

OMG! It's so strong. Some people will die if I spray it in the summer =,=

All I can say is that Fleur du Mâle is too strong to me.
This is sad but true :(

Now don't think of this as a very accurate review, because I only tried this once. However, from what I can remember (and the memory seems vivid, probably because it startles me so much) the first impression that I received was that of wet dirt. And i'm not talking about those attractive earthy smells like Terre d'Hermes, I'm talking about thick, heavy, dark garden earth fresh out of the plastic bag. Damp and dirty.
I couldn't tell you how it evolves because I washed it off right away. I don't want to smell like a garden wheelbarrow

I was very surprised by this one ; I expected to dislike it because I usually go for oriental/woody scents.
It is a very unusual not-so-soft fragance. One could say it is subtly subversive if the notion makes sense.
At the beginning Fleur du Mâle turned very waxy smelling on my skin but it faded little by little to be replaced by the smell of orange blossoms .
This fragance sums up Jean Paul Gaultier's spirit very well , originality , humour , contrastes and androgyny.

A great choice for those who are tired of the same old men scents. This one brings a new concept, and if tried a few times will show all the beauty in it... I got a sample, wore it a few times. Didn´t like it at first, but now I love it. Just bought a bottle online.

A strong and very long lasting white floral.
Reminds me of Anais Anais by Cacharel. If used lightly it could be a unique fragrance for women. But would not recomend it for a man.

Once again I don't agree that this is a feminine scent. It can be considered as a unissex, but not feminine. This one is a little bit contracditory, but surprisingly well done!
I am a fan of JPG fragrances and I'll tell you all a secret: when I first tried this scent, I din't like it. I felt too much sweet and annoying. Some months later, I received a sample of it and I decided to give it a try again. Well, I don't know if it was my mood, my alimentation, my skin,...I just know that I liked a lot!
To me it is Le Male + honey, even though this note doesn't exist in it, I feel honey all the time.
And, I believe it won't be necessary to say about its longevity, because it is a JPG!!!

This perfume to me smells like Indian Flowers. It smells like it's got an incensey vibe, with some flowers thrown in for good measure. It definately unusual and pretty darn strong. I would use this sparingly if I were you.
It stands out as so unique to me I love it. It's one of those scents that's gonna p*** people in your vicinity off, or...they're gonna be sniffing your neck like hungry lions. To me?? It's a winner and nothing else out there smells like this (In the commercial scent sense).

Daisy-chains. That's what this scent reminds me of....especially when you pull apart the yellow centre of the daisy which contains that 'yellow-green' smell.
As much as I love daisies (my favourite flower - how unpretentious & happy they always look!) & enjoy the hay-like qualities of chamomile tea, I cannot enjoy this fragrance, on man or woman. The green here is chartreuse & yet there is mustiness in all this freshness which doesn't allow the orange blossom to fully bloom.
I don't like my daisies torn apart & then stuffed in an old, musty drawer...I'll stick to wearing them in my hair.

Hahahaha I laughed with the comment of promoscanner! Well, this is not so bad...Its just a little bit feminime, but after many hours (yes it lasts) its smell more masculine... But this perfume seem to be interesting only for my gay friends...
08/11/09 12:10:35
I think it is manly and I get a lot of compliments from many different people. Nothing feminine about it. Flowers are not exclusivly feminine
06/10/09 17:57:33
I give this one another try today and again the only thing that impresses me is the beautiful bottle. The scent itself is too boring, too flowery, too "for women only". Nothing ground-breaking whatsoever about this one. The scent has no personality at all. It's just a deja vu old lady fragrance called "flower of male" which is clearly not. Stay away or buy some much cheaper female fragrances if you want to smell like this.
05/28/09 03:58:29
It's a great perfume, very sensual and delicious... too bad - I'm allergic to it :(((
05/15/09 11:53:47
This smells like half of my Mom's fragrances. The theory of this one is you take an average FEMALE fragrance, put it in a cool bottle related to a classic, come up with an beautiful ad telling that this is a masculine flower scent and the TVC has to mention this is masculine repeatedly, finally put the name Jean Paul Gaultier on it. Then there you go, you have a "flower of male" scent. Are you kidding me?

I tried if I could like JPG offerings: Le Male and Fleur D’ Male. These fragrances in my ultimate opinion (whether good or bad) are typical "metro sexual" realities! Thereafter, being a lasting and silage monsters is an impractical feature for insisting me to put them in any sort of regular usage.
Thumbs Down for having these worst fragrances in my collection. I spent a quite heavy price to get them. Worst 2nd Buy in my 75+ collection is “Le Male” while the 1st one is "Fleur D' Male" (yakhhhhhhh!!!)
And after getting these 2 from JPG, I learnt to try at least twice before buying any PERFUME!
Final Conclusion: Only use in which I can put Le Male is to mix it with some sophisticated heavy & spicy fragrance to give a little sweet touch! And unfortunately can’t put Fleur D’ Male even for such a use.

it doesn't seems to be a masculine fragrance.. but that's the most intersting on jpg fragrances! but i woudn't use this one!
02/18/09 11:08:46
Believe it or not, but my nose smells beautiful powdery roses in Fleur Du Male! The smell is so romantic, so sweet and so soft, that it's almost hypnotising. Whenever I sniff it I feel as if I was suddenly falling down on the soft cloud, feeling easy like a feather...
I think men who love Paco Rabanne's Black XS, could also like this one. It's true, the fragrance is very unisex, but I would love to have it in my collection. It is amazing!

it is a trick that they used the same torso shaped bottle as Le Male. this is so synthetic and nauseating, nothing like Le Male, not a brother of it for sure. i do not consider the 10+ hours lasting power as an advantage because it is a 10+ hours of torture with sickening rotten chamomile. not recommended to any age and for any occasion.
10/25/08 12:03:36
I test this and euhhh... realy don't like it at all! To feminine for my taste! To flowery... smell like teil... :(
10/02/08 12:39:29
One of my favourite fragrances!
It's so unusual and masculine at the same time. It's not for every male, for sure, but for those lucky enough to be daring, the rewards of this perfume are multiple.

Smells a bit like some foundations girls use. I really dislike the strong flowery/musky smell, musty like the wig of a sick grandma in an elderly home.. if you know what I mean.
I just think it is a too heavy sweet smell and I can't imagine any type of guy where this scent would fit.

its not very masculin but pleasant to smell, which is the thing in case of an unisex perfume si i guess it can be unisex, and honestly i dont really like it on men, i have met a few people wearing this and didnt give a sexy or masculine impression
08/19/08 13:42:10
i had the mini - and i used it - i think its unisex! and more feminne
BTW - its smell like JOOP for men
i thought that there is almond inside but as i read - its not there ..Ah ...and very like cristoble ( the red botthle)

Sweet and strong but in the same time gentle and soft. J.P Gaultier style. I like it. TOO much is TOO MUCH !!
06/28/08 08:17:52
I have to admit that I sometimes use this scent myself because of the gorgeous pure floral (orange blossom) notes that you can't find anywhere else. I would consider it a unisex fragrance.
the blossoms are very feminine but combined with the distinctive Le Mâle scent.
By the way,the feminine touch matches its creator, doesn't it? ;-)

It's true that this one it's like a girl scent but I like it for young man and even for me.

Had the chance to test this one out. Stay away! Disgustingly flowery with no redeeming notes. This scent overpowers anything in the room. The type of thing that reminds you of gossipy high-school girls with too much makeup and not enough braincells.
