outside the country. The restriction extended to Canada, where passports aren't normally required of American citizens. Robeson gave four concerts during those years at the Peace Arch Park near Blaine, Washington, at the Canadian border. This CD presents the 1952 and '53 concerts at which Robeson (accompanied by solo pianists Lawrence Brown and Alan Booth) sang across the international boundary from the back of a flatbed truck. In addition to brief speeches by Robeson and union leader Harvey Murphy, the great singer/political activist mixes traditional fare, spirituals, and "Ol' Man River" with broadsides such as "Joe Hill" and the Chinese marching song "Chin Chin." The sound quality is imperfect but listenable, the occasion is historic, and Robeson is great. --Stanley Booth

Advantages: Great long lasting smell, nice bottle Disadvantages: A little more expensive than others on the market
I was bought this aftershave for Christmas this year by my girlfriend. I liked it so much; I thought I would share my opinion of it with Ciao.
Packaging
Jean Paul Gaultier 'Le Male' comes in a silver tin with the 'Jean Paul Gaultier' label embossed on the front. You can pull the bottom of the tin off, and the bottle of aftershave sits in a stand on the base, which is attached to the base of the tin. Inside the top section of the tin is a white plastic section which holds the top of the bottle square inside the tin, once the bottle is back inside which stops it from rattling around and possibly being smashed inside.
The bottle itself is typical of Jean Paul Gaultier aftershave and comes in their famous body shaped bottle. This particular bottle is in the theme of a sailor. The bottle is an off navy blue with white stripes ...
Advantages: Environmental friendly, good values, products not tested on animals Disadvantages: Results not satisfactory, not a good outcome
At one of my trips at the saloon, I was recommended some products from Paul Mitchell for my daughter, who has a frizzy and curly hair which seems to have gone in a very bad shape over the last year.
I have to admit that up until this point I have never heard of this brand, so I have decided to give it a try and see if it will help getting my little daughter?s hair back in shape. Since I normally do not buy products I don?t know I have looked up on the internet to see what information I could find about Paul Mitchell products, even if it was a bit late by this point.
Who is Paul Mitchell?

Advantages: Great value for money considering you only need a little bit. Disadvantages: Outside packaging could be better
I came across Jean Paul Gaultier: Le Male, Eau de Toilette about 8 years ago now, as you can see it has been around a while.
I have to say.... I love its smell. It is very sweet smelling, and quite suductive for the oppisite of sex. In my oppinion the fragrance is very distinctive I can pick it out anywhere. Its clean, fresh, and very sexy.
At the moment the average price is £31.84 for 74ml and £40.99 for 124ml so i recomend that you pay abit extra for the bigger bottle. I think its good value for money as you only need a few sprays as the sent lasts for a while. You could put it on in the moring and wouldnt need to renew it till late afternoon early evening.
It comes in a shiny silver tin. The bottle that the fragrance is in is a stylish and unique. Its the shape of a mans torso to match its masculine and sexy smell.
