    #293 - Le Beau by Jean Paul Gaultier

    What's the connection between a high school locker room and a classic Jean Paul Gaultier fragrance? We explore this hilariously in our latest episode, where we dive nose-first into the intriguing world of colognes, especially focusing on La Male Le Beau. Alongside a nostalgic nod to "Last Action Hero" and caffeine-fuelled discussions courtesy of Starbucks espresso, we're surprised by how much love our La Male episodes get, even outshining our talks about Aventus. We also ponder if Paco Rabanne's Million Gold, with its sweet and soft notes, suits our personal style or if it merely mirrors Santel 33.
