What does Fleur du Mâle (2026) smell like?

It opens with petitgrain, moves into fougère notes and orange blossom at the heart, and settles on a coumarin base that softens and sweetens it. The fresh, green start rests on a powdery, creamy foundation, with the fougère frame keeping the floral side in check.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, though summer has its share. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, with evening and business also getting votes. Voters mostly call it masculine, but a fair number read it as feminine. Fleur du Mâle and Goutal Les Colognes - Néroli have a close profile.
