Vanilla, tonka bean, amber, sandalwood, cedar
The 'sailor in a striped shirt' icon — sweet vanilla and tonka wrapped in cool lavender and mint, with a spicy cinnamon heart. One of the most recognizable men's fragrances ever made.
How they compare
Maison Alhambra Glacier Pour Homme smells like Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male because the two lists barely part company: Lavender, Mint, Cardamom and Bergamot all appear in both, which is most of what gives the original its shape.

Lavender-and-herb aromatics over vanilla is what puts this on the cold-weather side of the year — it reads rich in cool air and can turn heavy in heat. Casual enough for a normal day and bold enough for an evening, though it's more than an office needs.
