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

It has moderate longevity and sillage. Most voters suggest spring and fall, with summer close behind. Daily wear, leisure and the office are the leading occasions, and most voters call it feminine and modern.

It opens with mango and citrus in a sweet fruity mood. Jasmine, heliotrope and rose add a soft floral heart. Tonka bean and vanilla turn creamy at the base, with patchouli staying in the background.
