Joy of Pink

A neon-pink cocktail at a summer rooftop bar, where the zesty tang of grapefruit blends with the sweetness of peony and the subtle earthiness of cedar.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Béatrice Piquet launched Joy of Pink in 2010 as part of Lacoste's Pink Collection, a line that embodies the youthful spirit and energy synonymous with the brand. This floral fruity Eau de Toilette opens with the bright zest of grapefruit, awakening senses like a refreshing splash of water on a hot day. The heart is a challenge to conventional florals, blending peony with the exotic taste of Blue Curaçao, creating an unexpected yet harmonious balance. Virginia cedar and musk ground the composition, providing warmth and depth without overpowering the freshness above.

How to wear it

Apply lightly to pulse points — the grapefruit top note is bright but fleeting. The musky base notes develop slowly over an hour, so let it settle before layering or reapplying.

Béatrice Piquet

A career built on apprenticeship and humility

Béatrice Piquet (1963–2010) was a French perfumer who joined International Flavors and Fragrances (IFF) at seventeen, rising from laboratory assistant to senior perfumer over a six-year apprenticeship under JP Mary and Alain Astori.

“I hope I never find it because it would suggest that everything is at an end.”
