Expect sweet honeyed vanilla with spicy tobacco from Le Male Elixir (2023), opening on lavender and mint and drying down to honey, tonka bean and tobacco. Le Male (Eau de Toilette, 1995) is described as cool mint and lavender, sweet vanilla spice; lavender and mint up top and tonka bean, vanilla and amber underneath. For Le Male Le Parfum (Parfum, 2020), think warm vanilla cream dusted with cardamom powder, with cardamom first and vanilla and oriental woods at the base.
