Hmm...using Gimp 2.9.5 I am using todays 'buntu linux update which I think has a bug with layer masks, however
You should be able to get something using duplicate layers with a radial gradient applied to a layer mask on the top layer.
Duplicate the layer, add a layer mask and adjust the top layer to sharpness you need, this using color curves

Then click in the layer mask to make active and apply a radial white to black gradient (blend tool) With Gimp 2.9.5 you get a real time view adjusting the start and end points of the gradient and also the offset slider. Hit the enter key to finalise.

gives something like this http://i.imgur.com/etWGEFk.jpg A 'new from visible at this stage is usually a good idea.
