What does Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Energized Edition smell like?

Citrus fruits, mint and ginger lead, while jasmine and tuberose add a soft floral note in the heart. Vetiver and cedarwood anchor the base with a woody, earthy dryness. The overall impression is fresh, citrusy and green, with spicy and gourmand touches staying in the background.

Longevity is rated moderate, so it suits shorter stretches of the day better than an all-day wear. Few people have voted, so that rating is only a rough guide. Ralph Lauren Big Pony Collection - 3 and Lacoste L.12.12 Bleu have a close profile.
