About This Perfume
Ultra Male by Jean Paul Gaultier is a Oriental Fougere fragrance for men. Ultra Male was launched in 2015. The nose behind this fragrance is Francis Kurkdjian. Top notes are Pear, Lavender, Mint, Bergamot and Lemon; middle notes are Cinnamon, Clary Sage and Caraway; base notes are Black Vanilla Husk, Amber, Patchouli and Cedar. Jean Paul Gaultier launches its new fragrance Ultra Male in summer 2015. The fragrance is a reinterpretation or enhanced version of the popular original Le Male from 1995. Ultra Male, announced as masculine, intense, seductive and at the same time delicate, is supposedly built on contrasts notes and is a spicier version of the original. It opens with citrus notes of bergamot, along with juicy pear, black lavender and mint. The heart includes spices of cumin and cinnamon, with aromatic clary sage. The base consists of black vanilla, amber and woods. It is signed by Francis Kurkdjian. The face of the advertising campaign is model Jarrod Scott. The fragrance arrives in a characteristic torso bottle, this time colored in dark blue with black stripes. It is available as 40, 75 and 125 ml Eau de Toilette Intense.

The verdict
Best for
Jean Paul Gaultier launched fragrance with Classique in 1993 and Le Male in 1995; the house has since built one of the strongest designer-gourmand catalogues, currently anchored by the Scandal and Le Male families. Scendira lists 208 JPG fragrances with 34 in stock, priced $35 to $207. The catalogue leans gourmand-feminine on average (the Classique / La Belle side outnumbers Le Male in SKU count). Community top five in stock: Scandal Pour Homme Absolu (chestnut caramel sandalwood, 2024), Scandal Pour Homme Le Parfum (geranium tonka sandalwood, 2022), Le Beau Paradise Garden (mint ginger coconut fig, 2024), Scandal Pour Homme (caramel latte vetiver, 2021) and Le Male Essence de Parfum (leather cardamom vanilla, 2016). Le Male in its EDT form remains the historical anchor, a mint-vanilla-lavender that defined 90s masculine gourmand. Bottles are the sculpted torso and bust icons.
