What does Le Mâle Summer Fragrance 2013 smell like?

It opens with lavender, peppermint and cardamom, which give a cool, lightly spicy start. Grass and green leaves then take over the heart and turn the scent leafy. In the base, sandalwood, vanilla, cedarwood and musk soften and sweeten it, settling into a woody, powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted. Its fresh, green character sits close to summer days, and it is classed as a men's fragrance. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Summer Fragrance 2015 and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Mâle Summer Fragrance 2012 have a close profile.
