Le Male Aviator

This is my last buy of 2021. It's a blind buy and surprisingly not disappointed. I actually gave this a few try before giving my review. Firstly I was very interested in the notes listed here on fragrantica and someone pointed out the official notes are different. Interesting. Secondly I'm really a fan of green and minty notes. Like many reviewers have pointed out, it really opens up to a fresh minty sweet scent. It does smells familiar to something you've smelled before... It does reminds me of Givenchy Gentleman. I'm not sure why.. I compared the notes and both are totally different. It also reminds me of mint tic tac. Really hope there can be more mint. Overall I do feel Le Male Aviator, though not groundbreaking, does smells pleasant and nice and is slowly developing somehow. I find myself constantly sniffing myself nonstop. Also, I do love the frosted dark green bottle.

Aviator smells a lot like On Board but Aviator is a tad more heavy for fall and winter, while On Board is a fresh-er spring and summer friendly. I would not use aviator during summer, you can choke people nearby. The mint is bright in Aviator and it take a while to fade. Even after some good coulpe hours, at the wood-base notes that are left, the tendency is the same, On Board has a lighter amber and Aviator has a heavy-er wood note. But THE main difference is the strong mint in Aviator and the fresh geranium in On Board. Also, Aviator lasts longer than On Board, most probably due to its non fresh nature and colder weather orientation. Edit: I used it today, sprayed a good couple sprays, and by hour 10 I could still smell it when making movements, and now even after 12 hours, I can still smell it on my skin. This was a "warm" sunny winter day.

I'm not a fan of the trend of companies listing one note for each of the three categories (top, middle,base) but in this one case it kind of work. The disclosure of the mint indicates the freshness of this green fragrance. The violet leaf lets the wearer know that this green fragrance has a floral aspect to it. The woodsy notes confirm what we all pretty much suspect, that this will dry down into a woodsy scent. If I were to describe this fragrance it would be a a fresh green and floral fragrance with a woodsy dry down. For once I agree with the less is more approach in listing note breakdown. I think there is lavender in this but it's mostly masked by the violet leaf. This is a nice casual scent, good for the office as well. It doesn't project well but lasts long enough so that anyone leaning in towards you will pick up this pleasing scent.

I can tell you with certainty this is the Le male release worth getting your nose on. The last few have been less that appealing to me. The top notes here are stunning. Created to be a brighter Le male with bergamot mint, and fruity melon undertones The mid is mass appealing i admit with tonka being the main player but its nicely done compared to much of what's available which unfortunately seems to be everyones go to generic note i like the tonka mid here its more interesting and has a spicier vibe. The sandalwood and geranium i get in the dry down is just as nice as the top notes. I enjoy it and will probably get a full bottle before it gets reformulated already HAHA

Wow a pleasant surprise. The violet note is very strong here, and is a freshier take specially compared to Ultra Male. It's not that unique, but it doesn't pass as forgettable either, i can see this being a compliment getter. I'd say this is closest to Le Male Le Parfum than it is to Ultra Male, but only on the idea behind it, not the scent itself. It smells more mature and classy just like Le Parfum. I can definetly see the comparison between this and CH Men, they are similar but not identical. I would pick this over CH Men though, as it feels more modern and refined. Overall, not groundbreaking but you will most likely turn heads while wearing this.

I smell no mint or violet because those are two of my most hated fragrance notes and I love this stuff. It’s sweet greens 🥬 it smells just like ch men and that is one of my all time favorite fragrances. I was saying I needed a backup bottle of ch men so I’ll always have it even though mine is still pretty full. But this will be my summertime nighttime ch men and I’ll use ch men for spring nights. I’m glad I got a sample I wasn’t going to give it a try because of the bad reviews but I understand why they hate on this cause they hate on ch men but haters gonna hate

As someone who generally dislikes designer/tonka/coumarin perfumes this is quite enjoyable. It has a burst of freshness and dries down sweet but nothing suffocating. I think the longevity is higher than what's suggested on Fragrantica due to (relatively) the small number of votes at the moment. I get about 6-7 hours. Paid quite little for my bottle and I like it for the money! I think it should be 60% less than its retail price to be perfect.

In my opinion this perfume/cologne/fragrance is perfect in every way it dosent smack you in the face with power but it’s longevity is amazing this perfume/cologne/fragrance is a solid 10/10 would most certainly recommend it and it’s is currently available as of making this comment on fragrancebuy.ca for 51$ us so I’d buy it now for the price it’s at

This is not what it first seems. A very strange beast. Smells modern and sharp. Not that good upclose at first, but a great sillage monster reveals itself in the hours after. Longevity is crazy, I smelled it the next day as a lingering ghost that reminded me again and again that it’s present still.

This fragrance is really nice. It's got a very pleasant violet note, which i find to be quite prominent throughout the entire lifespan. It almost has a bit of a "perfumey", feminine vibe from the violet, but still a nice smell for a man. My wife likes this one on me.

Le Male Aviator is so underrated in my opinion ... This scent is quite simple but so delicate. It's one of my favourite flanker of Le Male. It's not overpriced so it really worth it. I love this one, in spite of the moderate longevity.

Amo essa fragrância, perfume extremamente sedutor e chique, muito equilibrado, na secagem é super acamurcado e confortavel, alem desse toque verde e sofisticado, uma jóia. Pena não fixar e exalar como eu gostaria, mas uma jóia

Don't believe everyone's thought on this fragrance it smells like bubblegum from a bubblegum machine to me. Its good , fresh , minty and sweet. Good fragrance for day wear and gym

They’re charging 200 usd for this. Not worth it, it’s a just a pleasant but medioker flanker.

First, some notes above are certainly missing. Second, although not my favorite Le Male flanker...I certainly enjoy this during spring/early summer. Opens with a strong fresh blast violet leaf. I really enjoy this note, so this fresh green opening is really nice. As it quickly dries, this has to have geranium note in it...or something similar. It gives off a sweet combo of violet leaf and what I think is geranium. It retains this for awhile as a masculine woods come forth. Only until a full work day later, does it get into a more creamy DNA (think sandalwood/vanilla), but by then it’s a skin scent you have to bury your nose into to detect. If this final dry down showed up much sooner...like in place if the harsher masculine woods, this would be a love for me. Projection on me is slightly above average...longevity is a full work day. Versatility is average...best for spring/early summer. Certainly masculine...particularly the dry down. Overall, I’m really happy with it. Nice little addition to the line. You really have to like violet leaf to enjoy this. Sample before purchasing bottle.

The notes on here are incorrect/incomplete. I do not like the opening of this, at least in colder weather. On paper, it's a nice fresh spicy green opening, on my skin it's heavy vegetation. Like putting my nose in something earthy and dark green. Luckily that goes away and the drydown is surprisingly nice. If you find a bottle for cheap (or free like I did) it's probably worth it. I feel like it's a decent spring or early autumn day scent, just before the leaves turn. But it's ultimately pretty boring. So unless you collect the series or enjoy a vegetation opening that settles into a nice minty-woodsy scent, I'd probably pass on it.

So I just recieved my decant/sample in the mail today and here is my very quick, honest OPINION of this fragrance. Does it smell good? : Yes Is it unique? : No Would I buy a full bottle? : If the price is right. To the collectors out there, this isn't going to blow you away. However I think the "average" person would find this pleasant and would think it smells good however this will not be a unique scent in your collection. I'm digging the olive drab/military design of this tho....

Worn this for 2 days straight. Had to respray after 3/4 hours just for my own personal benifit. It’s a pleasent woody,slightly minty sweet fragrance to start off with then the mid to dry down is fairly generic all the way through this is a pleasent scent for daily use mainly. Spring in the U.K. or Autum. Projects 2hrs then becomes a skint scent. If it was stronger in projection and longevity this could’ve been a great buy instead of dumb reach daily frag

Fresh, green, minty and sweet. Definitely smells like things you've smelled before but still, this is a good fragrance, and it'll have its place on my Spring 'dumb reach'-shelf. In general, I feel that the latest le Male flankers are being slept on - they're all decent to good. Maybe it's just the 'le Male' brand fatigue doing JPG no favours.

a lot of mint. balsamic to the limit of toothpaste smell. may like it, but I don't. so I suspend my vote as it is a good perfume but not in my strings.similar to original but more minty.
