I believe that Don Juan was a person very romatic, with the girls, jejejeje, or perhaps he was a person conqueror.

Anyway, he was DON JUAN, and so, he called.

If you're a Don Juan, you're considered to be a womanizer.

A womanizer (un mujeriego, un jugador) is a man who flirts with all the ladies.

Un mujeriego es un hombre dado a mujeres. A veces, es un «Don Juan», un marinero con una mujer en cada puerto.

And Don Juan has also permeated the Anglo-Saxon tradition. As you can read in Sosía's article, Lord Byron wrote a long poem based on the Spanish legend and also called Don Juan.
I want a hero: an uncommon want,
When every year and month sends forth a new one,
Till, after cloying the gazettes with cant,
The age discovers he is not the true one;
Of such as these I should not care to vaunt,
I'll therefore take our ancient friend Don Juan
-- We all have seen him, in the pantomime,
Sent to the devil somewhat ere his time.
