Le Male Elixir Absolu - Parfum

Decadent and smooth!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Jean Paul Gautier Le Male Elixir Absolu includes a number of prominent notes found within the beloved classic, Le Male fragrance, but with added depth and warmth with sweet amber, tonka and lavender. The concentrated formula that provides a noticeable strength in both projection and longevity without being overt and cloying. Beautifully balanced for wear through all seasons. The luxurious gold bottle featuring JPG’s signature sculpted torso bottle and tin housing featuring a velvet base adds to the delicious and rich experience. Highly recommended!

Great for dates and night out

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The moment I sprayed Le Male Elixir Absolu, I knew this wasn’t your average flanker. It opens with a hit of that familiar lavender from the original Le Male, but it’s richer, smoother, and immediately enveloped by a warm sweetness. There’s a cozy vanilla-honey warmth that feels like being wrapped in a luxurious cashmere blanket. This thing lasts longer and got multiple compliments. I could still smell it on my clothes the next morning.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Where do I even begin? I have had a few JPG fragrances so far and this one is by FAR the best. Truly a masterpiece with the fresh lavender mint opening and then the sweet dry down. I like this better than the original elixir since the sweetness is a bit less toned down it makes it so much more versatile and safer to wear. Beast mode too it lasts 10+ hours on my skin. I would buy this fragrance again and again!!!

Strong scent with unique packaging

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Unique packaging but makes it look slightly cheap. Scent is very strong and long lasting, one spray goes a long way. Bottle follows the classic line but with a nice gold twist.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Nice strong scent. JPG does these sweet, rich fragrances very well. It’s not anything world breaking, but a great choice for an evening scent. Good longevity

Great product and packagin

I thought the packaging and bottle of this product was super cool, has a great spray so it spreads much more making the bottle lasting longer than others

Very attractive smell

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Really good smooth smell, and the performance is incredible. I only sprayed a small spritz on one hand to test it, and I was getting wafts of it 8 hours later. This leans winter but has enough fresh elements it could be worn on summer nights. The packing is not my favorite but some people enjoy the can/man bottle shape.

Fresh Scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Elixir Absolu had a fresh outdoorsy scent. Like a great acent coming in the breeze. The packaging is quite unique as well. It projects well and goes a good distance. This can be very versatile. I would recommend to others.

Versatile Sweet Scent

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Toned down take on the original, but more vivid with that plum note. It smells very sweet and addictive with that cinnamon-lavender-tonka bean combo. I tried it on my skin and it lasted me more than 8 hours which is very good. Received a couple of compliments too. Overall, beautiful bottle and beautiful scent.

Nice perfume

Solid perfume with a solid body. Fragrance lasts long. The scent is very nice with a definite essence that anyone passing by can’t ignore. Very nice

A sweet, sophisticated, vanilla beast!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I much prefer this flanker to the original Le male Elixir! It keeps the gourmand vanilla in the base but has a very nice plum in the opening, as well as other spices like cardamom; This differs from it’s predecessor as I consider the absolu to be more sophisticated and a bit less playful. I always enjoy the packing with JPG fragrances as well, opening the iconic “can” before smelling your fragrance for the first time is all part of the experience. I also got amazing longevity and projection from this scent, lasting 8-9 hours on skin and projecting around 1.5 to 2 feet, this is the quality which you always get from the perfumers at JPG! Overall this is a very nice rich, vanilla-heavy, gourmand scent that’s perfect for cooler weather, evenings and date nights!

Le Male Elixir Absolu: Bold, Fruity, Luxe Scent

I recently received Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Elixir Absolu complimentary through a partnership with Influenster, and I’m excited to share my thoughts on this bold new addition to the iconic Le Male collection. First Impressions and Packaging The fragrance arrives in the signature Le Male torso-shaped bottle, but this time, it’s fully immersed in a luxurious golden finish that screams opulence. The design feels rich and modern, perfectly reflecting the intense and sensual vibe of the scent inside. It’s eye-catching and stands out on any shelf, making it as much a statement piece as it is a fragrance. Scent Profile Le Male Elixir Absolu is a woody aromatic fragrance with a warm, spicy amber character. It opens with a vibrant burst of lavender, which feels fresh yet familiar, immediately drawing you in. This transitions into a heart of juicy, slightly sweet plum, accented by spicy notes of cardamom and a hint of cinnamon, adding a layer of complexity and allure. The base is where the magic happens—tonka bean, benzoin, and ambrette create a creamy, velvety warmth that lingers beautifully, with subtle patchouli and labdanum adding depth and sophistication. Compared to its predecessor, Le Male Elixir, this flanker feels smoother and less sharp, with the plum note giving it a refined, fruity edge. Performance and Longevity This parfum intense lives up to its name. On my skin, it projects strongly for about 4-5 hours before settling into a closer, but still noticeable, scent bubble. The longevity is impressive, easily lasting 10+ hours with just 3-4 sprays. I wore it to an evening event and received compliments hours after application, with friends noting its warm, inviting aura. It’s versatile enough for cooler days or date nights but might feel heavy in high heat due to its rich, sweet profile. Thank you to Influenster , Sephora and Jean Paul Gaultier for the opportunity to experience this fragrance!
