The story behind the bottle.
Lacoste Elegance was launched in 2007 by Lacoste Fragrances, a French fashion house known for its signature tennis wear and green crocodile logo. This Oriental Fougere fragrance combines warm spicy notes with the rich indulgence of chocolate and cacao, balanced by fresh citrus and aromatic spices. The composition opens with a bright burst of citrus that quickly gives way to the heart's warmth, where cinnamon and cardamom mingle with the sweet depth of chocolate. It settles into a base of musk and woody accords, creating an atmosphere that is both intimate and sophisticated.
Apply Lacoste Elegance in two moderate sprays. The fresh spicy top notes are bright but fleeting, so allow it to settle on your skin before heading out. Its moderate longevity means it will keep you company through the night without overpowering.
