Eau De Lacoste Sensuelle

This is not a girly teenage gourmand scent, It is a mature gourmand. I'm not too fond of spice and musk in a perfume because my skin tends to project these two notes the most, cover all the other notes and make the perfume smells masculine. So far, there are only two perfumes that have spice notes that I love, Chloe Narcisse and this one. Don't smell this perfume directly from the bottle, it will turn you off. You have to spray it on your skin to really smell the true scents. The opening smells like blackcurrant syrup on my skin with a very little sweet pea. Then after 10 seconds, the pink pepper, amber, rose and nougat show up make a beautiful, mature, sexy scent. The dry-down vanilla, nutty, amber, and spice blend together, creating a really nice sensual scent. Many people say Juicy Gold Couture is one of the sexiest perfumes for women, I love that perfume and agree to some extent. To me Gold Couture smells sexy and that's about it, while Lacoste Eau de Sensuelle smells sexy, seductive, mysterious AND sensual. Sillage and longevity are great, the scent smells expensive, also my male friends love this a lot. For these qualities, you really can't beat the price.

SO glad I decided to buy this (blindly) -- I've been looking for a casual sweet scent that doesn't only remind me of food or sugary candy and this fits right between the casual floral realm and a warm confectionary vibe. Very well made, not getting anything sharp or synthetic, even at first spray. The nougat gives this a chalky sort of sweetness, not syrupy or cloying. I do sense the gladiolus and sweet pea, both are very distinctive and add a little uniqueness to this sleeper scent. Soft, soft floral presence overall. Amber is very present, really grounds everything and holds it all together. Catching whiffs of it now under my sweater, delicious! Perfectly wearable in warmer weather, but not sure about the sweltering summer heat considering how sweet this is. Cannot WAIT to wear this out and about. Perfectly enjoyable and balanced. Simplicity is just what I need after a while of wearing the attention grabbers we all know and love. Will now be looking to Lacoste more often! OH and the bottle! Not always as important, but this baby is gorgeous! Quality little glass orb to hold in the hand, doesn't hurt that dark blue is my absolute favorite color <3333

So, finally got this in the post today and was super excited to try it out. I had a 9 hour shift at work and was just too excited to not try it as I bought it blindly based on the reviews here. The bottle is actually quite pretty, it's not girlie, it's more sporty-chic, if that makes sense, but I still like it, it sits nicely in the palm of your hand. Initial spray was licorice!! Or like a cold, cough medicine. I was super disappointed and just thought Nooo! I've done another stupid blind buy! HOWEVER, after about 30 seconds, this fades into a GORGEOUS scent. It's soft, feminine and sultry. I would NOT recommend wearing it to work like I did! I did however, have a woman follow me around just to ask what I perfume I was wearing. It lasted ALL DAY and I only touched up a couple times. Definitely a winter perfume, when I was in a cold environment it sort of floated up like a cloud and I could really smell this one on me as I went about my job! This is an evening scent to my nose, it's mysterious and alluring and the dry down is addicting! I can't stop smelling my wrists!! Very pleased with my blind buy!

As I was online shopping for a Mother's Day gift I found this beauty for a very good price, just because the packaging (outer box) was damaged. I could not resist the temptation and ordered it for myself. Not a blind buy this time, I tried it when it came out and immediately added it to my wishlist. So, today I received it and I'm very happy with it! At first it reminds me of YSL Manifesto, but they're definitely not all that similar. It starts out a little bit green and slightly spicy (pink pepper). The green sensation must come from the gladiolus considering it's odor profile: very subtle floral scent of freshness and light sweetness mixed with "clean" green. It soon settles in what becomes the dry-down. The spicy notes fade, amber comes to the surface, but most of all there's predominant notes of sweet, nutty nougat. This is what distinguishes Lacoste Sensuelle from other oriental/gourmands like Manifesto. For a change there's no vanilla and no caramel,... just... nougat! It's not heavy, but it is lasting! ♥♥♥♥♥

This is beautiful! I blind bought Eau Sensuelle Lacoste, and when I first tried it on my skin, it reminded me of a fragrance but I couldn't pinpoint which one. Then I read the comments below, and it came back to me: Mon Guerlain! I had received a sample of Mon Guerlain a little while ago, and Eau Sensuelle Lacoste is very similar to me. So now I'm wearing both to compare, and although they are not exact dupes, it's surprisingly close on my skin. This Lacoste fragrance is indeed sensual, elegant, warm and a tad spicy. I smell vanilla, which is not a note in here, so I guess it's the nougat playing that role. It's soft gourmand, floral (I don't get the rose, and I have no idea what sweet pea or gladiolus smell like, but I get "floral"). I'm happy there is amber and no patchouli in this as patch doesn't like me! This scent is long lasting. Signature worthy and more suited for cold weather in my opinion. Love it!
