What does Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 pour Elle Elegant smell like?

It opens with blackcurrant bud, pink pepper and citrus fruits, a fresh and fruity start. Mimosa brings a soft floral note in the heart, and vetiver settles the scent onto a woody, green base. Sweet and spicy touches stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate: not a loud scent, but one that stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is used for leisure, daily wear and the office. Most find it feminine and modern. Mugler Miroir Miroir - Miroir des Vanités and Chanel Chance (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
