Budget Le Male approximation; classic mint-vanilla opening, longevity weak.
RedditWhat it clones

ALT Fragrances sells The Gentleman as its version of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male (Original EDT).

One of the most-cited Ultra Male alternatives — similar but not identical; 9pm swaps the minty top for a fruitier apple-cinnamon opening. Strong performer.

Very close to Ultra Male but a powdery lavender replaces some of the juicy pear — same vibe, detectably different. Enormous longevity.

A well-regarded Ultra Male clone — reviewers put it ~90-95% after maceration, with strong longevity. Some batch variation and the drydown diverges slightly.

Two reviewers who know Ultra Male call it a clone of it, a little woodier; owners on Reddit agree and describe a drier, less sweet version. Maison Alhambra presents it as its Montblanc Legend Spirit, which its owners dispute. The one wear time reported is under four hours.

Five reviewers who know Ultra Male compare the two: four find it similar or a good copy, one of them at eighty-five percent and another sweeter and less bubblegum, and one says it is not even close. Wear time reports run from two to seven hours.

Thirty-one reviewers who know Scandal Pour Homme compare the two. Twenty-five find it very close, several side by side, with a brighter orange opening and a more synthetic feel; two call it similar but lesser, and four say it does not smell like it. Wear time is around five to seven hours, shorter than the original for some.

Honey-tonka-amber composition adjacent to Scandal; darker and more resinous on the base.
FragranticaWhat it clones

The go-to Le Male Elixir clone on r/fragranceclones; lavender-vanilla-tonka tracks closely with monster performance.

Strong iris-vanilla base that tracks the Elixir Parfum concentration closely; cardamom is slightly muted versus the original.
FragranticaWhat it clones

Velixir's Le Male Elixir interpretation — lavender and mint over Madagascar vanilla and benzoin into a tonka-tobacco-honey base, tracking the sweet-aromatic Elixir accord. Provisional pending owner-of-both community reads.

Community-cited Scandal Pour Homme Absolu alternative. Sweet-spicy amber gourmand profile.

A consistently-cited Scandal Absolu dupe — owners put it ~90% with the same boozy-honey vibe, just a touch sweeter/mintier and less polished.

2025 Rasasi Hawas flanker positioned as a sun-kissed take on JPG Le Beau Le Parfum — shares the creamy tonka/coconut-adjacent tropical direction but pushes citrus forward with far less of Le Beau's heavy coconut heart, so it reads as a partial (not 1:1) alternative. Pairing confirmed via direct fragplace comparison + multiple reviews.

Openings are close, but an owner who wore both 20+ times put full-wear similarity around 65-70% — Island is woodier/drier and misses the edible warmth.

2025 Rasasi Hawas flanker in the salty-tropical aquatic lane of JPG Le Beau Paradise Garden (coconut/fig/salt over mint and ginger). Community-flagged as a budget alternative; scored as a partial match pending broader consensus.

About thirty reviewers who know Paradise Garden compare the two: more than half find it very close, around ninety percent, a quarter say it has less coconut or sits nearer other Le Beau scents, and a fifth say it is not close. Wear time is long for most, eight hours and more.

Named on Reddit as an alternative to Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle Intense.

Named on Reddit as an alternative to Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Essence de Parfum.

About forty-five owners compare it with Le Male Le Parfum. Roughly two in three put it at 85 to 95 percent, closest in the dry-down; the rest object to a sharp cumin or pencil-shaving note in the opening and call it a poor copy. Most wearers report five to seven hours, a few only two.

Sweeter, less overtly green take on the Aura silhouette. Not a strict clone, but cheap and widely cited in community threads as the best budget alternative for Aura lovers.
