Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male Eau de Toilette Intense 125ml Spray

Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male Eau de Toilette Intense 125ml is a darker, sweeter reinterpretation of the brand's iconic Le Male — composed in 2015 by master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, who also created the original Le Male in 1995. Built around an unusual juicy pear top note and a deep "black vanilla" base, it pairs cool lavender, mint and bergamot with a spiced heart of cumin, cinnamon and clary sage, settling onto a creamy, slightly addictive amber-vanilla-woods drydown. Houses in the recognisable sailor-torso flacon, finished in deep navy blue with a darker gradient.

About Jean Paul Gaultier

Founded in Paris in 1976 by enfant terrible designer Jean Paul Gaultier, the house brought theatrical, gender-bending wit to French haute couture. Le Male (1995) and its flankers — Ultra Male, Le Beau Le Parfum, Le Male Le Parfum — extend the brand's signature sailor-torso bottle into a long-running men's fragrance family.

Olfactory family: Oriental Fougère / Aromatic Gourmand  |  Launched: 2015  |  Perfumer: Francis Kurkdjian

Who it's for

Ultra Male suits men who love Le Male but want something darker, sweeter, and more attention-grabbing — those who enjoy gourmand-edged men's fragrances. It is firmly an autumn and winter scent, ideal for evenings out, dinners and party-season wear, and known for above-average longevity and projection. The 125ml size is the long-haul bottle for those who already wear it as a signature.

How to use

1. Hold the sailor-torso bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
2. Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, chest.
3. Two sprays project well; this is one of the brand's stronger compositions.
4. For longer trail in cold weather, mist a small amount onto a coat lapel or scarf.
