Jean Paul Gaultier will launch Fleur du Male next March:
The fragrance was created by Francis Kurkdjian, the author of Gaultier's 1995 debut Le Male, and features the notes of white flowers in an intensely floral jus that is for the man 'who has nothing to hide', according to the company.
Like Gaultier's previous scents for both men and women, Fleur du Male comes in a torso shaped bottle this time interpreted in pure white. (via cosmeticsint)
Update: according to Women's Wear Daily, Fleur du Male is a fougère, and Kurkdjian "overdosed the orange blossom", and used a "'revisited fern accord, with notes of petigrain leaf and coumarin."
Update 2: see a review of Jean Paul Gaultier Fleur du Male.

Love the play on Baudelaire.
Love the idea of an intense white floral for men.
Love Francis Kurkdjian's work.
Now, will I LOVE the jus itself?
Also looking forward to Miyake and NR, but with well over 200 euros spent on perfume in the last coupla weeks, I shouldn't be having new lemmings, should I?
No, you should be sending your lemmings packing, I should think! What on earth did you buy?
But Fleur de Male sounds very good in concept, and will look forward to trying it.
Ya think?
Well, a friend who'd been on a business trip was supposed to get me Marc Jacobs, but when she didn't find it, I got real upset and consoled myself with The Dreamer and Declaration, 100ml each (a bargain). The Egoiste should arrive any day now, as should Fumerie Turque, my first Lutens, and a bell jar at that. I'm ecstatic. And, needless to say – nearly broke… 
Ok, now this is something I am looking forward to try!
Oh, a bell jar, lucky you! Would love to have a bell jar of Iris Silver Mist, although how I'd ever empty it is beyond me. Congrats!!
*grins* Thanks! Given your love of ISM, who cares if you would ever empty it – you'd have perfection in a gorgeous bottle
I'd care — it would taunt me as it sat unused, LOL…
Fleur Du Male sounds so cool! I never liked Le Male. At all. But there aren't enough floral fragrances for men.
I am looking forward to it too!
