After smelling guy after guy wearing Le Male at various clubs over spring break, I have come to the conclusion that Jean-Paul Gaultier ‘s popularity in the U.S. is starting to rival its European counterpart (read: it’s really effing popular). I don ‘t believe everyone understands what a fragrance truly represents.
It is ironic then, that Jean-Paul Gaultier captured the essence of a scent when he said that “A fragrance is the first garment you wear on your skin.” If everyone treated the perfume they wore as an article of clothing, many practices would change.
