Love at first sight (or sniff) is a beautiful and rare thing especially when it comes to fragrances. Usually I grow to love them over a period as they evolve on my palette...but this one was one of those rarities. I don't say this lightly and I'm by no means a refined connoisseur but I think this is my favourite fragrance ever! (Can you tell I like it?) It's weird, somehow it does evoke the spirit of the Lacoste polo shirt too.(Maybe I'm just being sucked in by the marketing bumf!) I think it's unique, super clean and fresh with just enough sweetness without being sickly. It starts out with candy sweetness and then evolves slightly into a kind of creaminess (for want of a better word!) which is just lovely! It's by no means super sophisticated but easily can be warn every day. It's not very strong and has moderate longevity but still smells amazing on my skin after 8 hours or so...even if no one else can smell it by then. A minor critique could be that it's too feminine...personally I don't subscribe to that or if it was passed my personal threshold, I wouldn't wear it. This one is simply sublime and definitely the best of the 12.12 Lacoste fragrances. Haven't really given Black, Green, and blue a fair trial but let's face it they are boring shit, the red one is nice too reminds me of a fruity tart musk like Gucci Rush or something?. Sorry for the gushing review but I think this one is worthy of it.
