Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male Eau de Toilette Intense is an amber fougère fragrance for men launched in 2015 and created by master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. Designed as a bolder, spicier, and deeper reinterpretation of the legendary 1995 original Le Male, it is widely celebrated for its sweet, seductive, and playful character.
Fragrance Profile & Scent Breakdown
The perfume is famously described as having a sweet, fruity bubblegum-like vibe in its initial blast, which smoothly matures into a warm, cozy vanilla-spiced drydown.
- Top Notes: A heavy opening of juicy Pear, crisp Mint, Lavender, Bergamot, and Lemon. The combination of fresh mint and fruity pear creates a highly vibrant and sweet initial impression.
- Heart Notes: As the citrus and fruit settle, a warm spice layer takes over, featuring Cinnamon, Clary Sage, and Caraway.
- Base Notes: The foundation is deep, sensual, and rich, dominated by Black Vanilla Husk, warm Amber, Patchouli, and Cedarwood.

Performance & Sillage
- Longevity: "Beast mode" performance. It easily lasts 7 to 12+ hours on the skin and persists even longer on clothing.
- Projection: Very powerful sillage. It projects strongly (4 to 5 feet) for the first few hours, making it highly noticeable in a room or crowd.

Best Occasions & VersatilityBecause of its extreme sweetness and commanding presence, it is a quintessential clubbing, nightlife, and date-night fragrance that excels at gathering compliments. It performs exceptionally well during colder seasons like winter, fall, and cool spring evenings, but can become overly cloying in intense summer heat.

PackagingThe scent is housed in the signature Jean Paul Gaultier Apollonian male torso bottle, customized for this release in a deep, mysterious midnight blue with prominent black horizontal sailor stripes. It is presented inside the brand's iconic matching dark metal collector tin.
