Sixty millilitres is the size for a fragrance you wear often but not daily, and Lacoste Original Pour Femme Intense Eau de Parfum 60ml fits that description exactly: too rich for the office in July, ideal from October onwards.
Red fruit opens it. Raspberry is the rounder of the two, jammy and tart together, while pomegranate is sharper, thinner and more sour, and it cuts across the raspberry to stop the first minutes from being simply sweet. The combination reads deep pink and it is immediately recognisable.
Jasmine and rose petal follow. The jasmine is full and warm with the slightly animal edge the flower always has, and rose petal is deliberately lighter than a full rose, clean and almost transparent beside it. Neither material replaces the fruit; they sit underneath it and give it somewhere to settle. The last stage is the point of the thing. Vanilla runs dark and smooth here rather than powdery, and tonka bean adds a dry, faintly bitter warmth that holds the sweetness back from becoming sugary. Six materials, and Adriana Medina-Baez, Louise Turner and Sonia Constant composed it, with all the weight sitting in the final pair.
At eau de parfum concentration expect a couple of hours of genuine projection and then a close, warm trail that lasts well into the night, so one spray is usually enough and two is plenty. It is aimed at women and belongs to cold weather and evenings. A French name since 1933, Lacoste grew out of a partnership between René Lacoste, a champion on the tennis court, and André Gillier, who brought the industry, around a single knitted shirt and the crocodile stitched onto it. The company's own history puts its first scent at 1968.
