Jean Paul Gaultier JPG Le Male EDT

$100–$180 · Check price

Le Male is the fresh lavender-and-vanilla barbershop scent that's been a compliment magnet for thirty years, and Glacier Pour Homme copies it faithfully — a mint-and-lavender opening over a warm vanilla-tonka-and-amber base. Side by side, the difference takes a long, careful sniff to find.

At $20–$30 it's the cheapest way into the most universally-liked scent JPG makes. See the full breakdown.

Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male

$20–$30Sold out on AmazonCheck 9PM on Amazon

Afnan 9PM is the clone that made budget houses famous — it tracks Ultra Male's sweet apple-and-cinnamon DNA so closely that owners of both routinely can't tell them apart, over the same rich vanilla-tonka-and-amber base.

It projects even harder than the JPG. At $20–$30 it's one of the most accurate dupes ever made. See the full breakdown.

Le Male Elixir is the sweet, addictive tobacco-vanilla flanker everyone's chasing, and The Kingdom nails it — a fresh lavender-and-mint top over a rich vanilla-tobacco-and-tonka base that's dead-on for the original.

It's a projection beast, best for fall and nights out. At $25–$35 it's the cheapest way into the scent of the moment. See the full breakdown.

Glacier Le Noir is the closest budget shot at Le Male Le Parfum — a cardamom-and-lavender opening melting into a creamy vanilla-and-iris warmth, matching the original's smooth, dressed-up spin on the classic Le Male.

At $17–$25 it's the easy way into the most refined Le Male there is. See the full breakdown.

Maison Alhambra Glacier Pour Homme is the best budget Le Male clone — the fresh lavender-mint-and-vanilla barbershop signature for $20–$30. For the full ranked list (including higher-strength picks), see our dedicated Le Male dupes guide.

Are JPG dupes as good as the originals?

For these picks, effectively yes — each is the community-verified closest clone of its JPG icon, matching on scent and usually performance. Afnan 9PM even out-projects Ultra Male. You give up a little polish, but the difference is mostly the price.

How much do Jean Paul Gaultier dupes cost?

A fraction of the JPG originals — the best Le Male clone runs $20–$30 on Amazon, against $100–$180 for Le Male itself. That's the appeal — you can cover the whole JPG lineup (Le Male, Ultra Male, Elixir, Le Beau) for the price of one designer bottle.
