Lacoste Essential

The patented time-release technology in this unique fragrance results in the slow release of fresh, energetic top notes of tangerine, bergamot, tomato leaves, and cassis. This energetic burst will be experienced throughout the length of the day, in combination with woody base notes of patchouli and sandalwood that produce a totally unique fragrance experience. The fragrance is "reanimated" as your body heat rises during sports, walking, or simply rubbing the skin.Notes:Tangerine, Bergamot, Tomato Leaves, Cassis, Black Pepper, Rose, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Wood Accord.Style: Fresh. Dynamic. Energetic.

My boyfriend's father bought him a bottle before and it emptied. I love the scent on him so I bought him another bottle, he also approves of the smell =)
It's not too strong and its a very soft scent, not too musky and not too fruity either. It is indeed an Essential scent =P

This smells great on my boyfriend! Never musty! He's a clean cut kind of guy so this just adds to his already flawless appearance.

Favorite Men Cologne

I bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it! It's hard to find a good one since some are over powering and some are too fruity. This was simple and but fresh!

It took a long time to find a fragrance that my husband would wear. He found many of the men's fragrances to be too strong, but this one we both like. It is yummy.

Quick Take: masculine
I cannot believe how great this smells! I'm obsessed with it, I wish my hubby wore cologne because I would have him wear it every day. I work in fragrances and there are a million different types of male fragrances and this is my "go-to" male fragrance that I recommend to people every time they are looking for a new cologne. I can't say enough positive things about this cologne....

Love It
-12.05.11
I couldn't decide between GIO and this one. I ended up buying both of them. Not too sure how it will smell on him but I LOVE both of the smells. This does kind of changes different smells a bit as it releases slowing but it still smells AWESOME through the different stages.
