The review

Worth a try. That is where The Gentleman lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Le Male.

ALT Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Le Male's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $48 per 100ml it costs 54% less than Le Male — the 5th cheapest of 9 twins we can price.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength ALT Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

What it is chasing: mint, lavender and cardamom up top, cinnamon, cumin and orange blossom in the middle, vanilla, tonka and sandalwood underneath — the shape of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male.

Top

  • mint
  • lavender
  • cardamom

Heart

  • cinnamon
  • cumin
  • orange blossom

Base

  • vanilla
  • tonka
  • sandalwood
For the warm-blooded classic. Cool mint and lavender settle into creamy vanilla and tonka — a barbershop icon in a sailor's stripes.
