Lacoste Live

This was a blind buy for me 98% because I find the bottle to be unique.... When you start becoming a collector and you are in the 100-bottle neighbourhood, you sometimes do blind buts on this type of basis.... Yes "boring" yes "nothing out of the ordinary"...., definitely won't be earth shattering..... But put it on on a 23/25-degree summer afternoon, or evening and watch it perform very well as a crisp clean, safe youthful, uplifting & enviro rating scent. It takes me back to the H.S days- wearing my timberland boat shoes, lacoste t-shirt and ray ban wayfarer sunglasses... GREAT MEMORIES!!!

Hmmm This one and a very good smell Sense , boy smell SAME really like , All I needed When I was in school , to USE Morning HIM AND fresh and woody , like notes captivated me , JA Remember A polo Lacoste with A chino pants cool Well ... I for Work and facudade , not rolls , for He has not long life, and is Not to Be Memorable Subscription , in addition to being expensive here in Brazil , I do not understand Why So expensive perfumes in Lacoste , What I should follow the TH of the price range that do the same style and are best if play!

A rather unique fragrance and one of the few anise/licorice perfumes for men besides the famous Lempicka. Despite the playful sporty boyish presentation, the soft sweet green woody aromatic scent actually gives it a modern elegant feel to my nose. Highly recommended as one of the few truly unique designer fragrances out there. Also be aware that it has been reformulated and put in a regular Lacoste bottle (check the "reminds me of" section).

True, it is nothing groundbreaking or earth-shattering, but a pretty decent frag with a note I've seldom found in ANY fragrance....... See if you can figure out that note when you get a sniff of this juice..... I sure like the bottle tho, it adds flavour to my collection....

This scent was recommended to me by a youtuber that seemed to really love this scent I was skeptical at first but knowing the cheap price of this one I blind bought it and I really enjoyed it really unique but the biggest problem is the performance very weak unfortunately

Really a very pleasant aquatic woody scent. Nostalgic as well, having grown up in the 90’s with scents similar to this. I’m impressed with it and would choose it over many designer scents of today. It’s a sophisticated scent, and could be worn by both young and old.

After reading the reviews I figured I should find out for myself if it's as "meh" as some say. And I really like this! It's an easy-on-the-nose, casual scent that works well for younger guys. Awfully overpriced, but that's Lacoste for ya.

Got this one from London Drugs, and I'm a fan. It is such a simple scent with it's five notes, and makes a great fragrance to spray on when you don't know what else to use.

No longevity, but an energizing cola/blue scent. Sometimes you don’t want a fragrance to last forever. I think it’s underrated.

This is the scent of a summer holiday evening, sitting in a restaurant by the beach with loved ones and a few choice drinks.

Masculine, spicy, universal for all seasons fragrance, with weak longevity I wish it was for 12 hours, but here we are. 4/5

In the line, my best two are: the original in that iconic bottle & lacoste Blanc....

nice and unique is the best fragrance from Lacoste

Is this perfume still available???

UPDATE A lesson I'm learning on this fragrance journey is that scents never fail to surprise. In July of last year I reviewed Lacoste Live and found it to be likeable enough, but let down by poor longevity. Yesterday I decided to give it another go, use up the last of my sample. Dear me, what a difference. The opening is as I remembered, a light fresh lime spritz. This quickly retreated and a warmer scent came to the fore. Most definitely the liquorice, far stronger than last time. Over the next few hours as this smell became lighter something else became noticeable. An ever so light vanilla, slightly floral. Reading up on guaiac wood this could be it. I have seen mentioned a rose, even violet like fragrance associated with the wood, so I'm thinking that's what it is. The real revelation has been the longevity. I put on the equivalent of about 3/4ml in the evening. This morning it's still discernible, I even asked my wife to check thinking it couldn't be possible. I'm currently wearing the last drops and I'm sure it's not the same frarance I tried last year! It isn't quite an 'I Love It' but certainly a strong 7.5/10. So, last thoughts, how could this be so different? I'm thinking it's a combination of my skin type and quantity of scent I apply. Recently I used up the last of another fragrance by splashing on a far greater amount than I usually do, and that also improved it's scent. In summary; never give up on a fragrance. If in doubt, splash too much on.

First of all... no matter how bad or boring the majority of Lacoste fragrances are (and let's face it they are!) I'm always keen to try anything from them just on the strength of eau de Lacoste Blanc which I love with everything I got! Now personally where the bottle is concerned, it's not bad but I'm not crazy about the presentation. What I do like is the shape of the bottle, it's a squat lil cube like Encre Noire or something? Seems like an obvious choice to make a cube but not many others copy that format. Another small criticism was my first impression of the sprayer was not good it squirted out a feeble jet rather than a mist, which also soaked my trigger finger. Anyway the juice is the important thing, so what is live like? Well unfortunately it falls victim to crowd pleasing and in epic proportions. The opening citrus makes way for a predictable but not unpleasant scent which seems very much like other sports fodder. It's kinda green but not natural at all and woody I suppose but I really don't get the typical signature of guaiac wood nor did I really get any liquorice. I may have to try this again you know because there's some interesting ingredients which seem to have been blended out of all recognition into a generic mess. Not bad, not good either and the longevity was poor on my skin.

Hace poco que tengo en mi poder esta fragancia y creo que merece un comentario ya que desde mi punto de vista es bastante buena. He utilizado otras de la marca Lacoste , como por ejemplo Essential , y tengo que decir que esta me parece más actual y moderna. Me parece una excelente fragancia cítrica para los días de calor, además las notas acuáticas y verdes unidos a un punto de regaliz le aportan un toque de originalidad y a la vez sencillez que permite utilizarla para ocasiones menos formales pero con un punto de distinción. Desde que la utilizo solo he tenido halagos así que no puedo quejarme. A la mayoría de mis amigos y conocidos les gusta el olor, y suelen comentármelo. La veo una buena fragancia para ser utilizada a diario, con una buena duración y estela, perfecta para utilizarla tanto para una salida con los amigos a media tarde o cuando sales del gimnasio. Estas son mis primeras impresiones , ya que hace poco que la utlizo, espero ampliar esta reseña cuando tenga un poco mas de experiencia con esta fragancia y poder compartir mis opiniones.

A very nice fragance that is made for casual wear. I enjoy the woody aquatic feel of this one. The wood is more overpowering than the aquatic and citrusy notes which I personally prefer. It is not a luxurious fragrance at all but it is a classic designer fragrance that is easily worn and will not let you down if you want to have an all rounder. A good handyman perfume if you visit a lot of people during the day and want to smell good but not offend anyone by your scent. What do I get out of this scent? I clearly get the wood and the aquatic notes as well as a bit of lime. On the other hand I do not recognise the licorice. The green notes are subtitle but they are definitely there. I like this fragance but it is not special enough for me to wear, and I would not consider buying it for myself. But as a present I would go for this one for a person under 30 or a person with a young mind. Overall: 5/10

Another fine smelling frarance let down by poor longevity - could it be my skin? This opens with a lovely fresh water lime spritz, quite light but very nice. Then it warms a little, becoming woody with only a hint of the liquorice. Within an hour, 2 tops, it's faded away to nothing. As for sillage you'd have to tell people you're wearing it. I've noticed in other fragrance reviews people talking of the scent's DNA; an in house signature as it were. This is the first time I've been aware of it. I instantly recognised the original 'Lacoste' even though this one is is nowhere near as citrusy. Lacoste Live - very likeable, but hard to love.

1st impressions: I'm surprised by how nice this smells, on me it quickly became a skinscent (wish it was stronger!), not sure yet on lasting power. I wouldn't say it's a masterpiece or a complex fragrance but it's very likeable, sweeter than I expected. The only 'note' I really pick up on from those listed above is licorice, like the pieces they used to sell in sweet shops in England, I was never really a big fan of it but I do like this scent, somehow reminds me of the 90s (best decade ever!), weirdly reminds me of a sweeter Hugo Man at times too.

its definitely a preppy and young scent. i totally get woody lime licorice. i think perfect for a 17 yr old. i think it is suited towards their clothing line. if you shop there you may like the fragrance if you are young. okay for business, not offensive. casual though, so i would say business casual. polo shirt and khakis. not suitable for business professional. too relaxed. could probably get away with wearing it on vacation to the beach in summer if you are older.

Cola, green & an underlying licorice smell (not prominent), citrus is very muted and doesn't last that long. Watery notes are mostly in the opening to my nose but do stick around for a bit. Woody dry down. Longevity is complete trash and this is not a strong projector but it actually smells fairly nice. Got a superb deal on clearance at TJ Maxx. For that price its a decent pickup. Don't pay the inflated prices as of late, this is a sub $20 fragrance.

This is better than any Lacoste fragrance I have tried. Although I'm not in awe of the juice, it's quite generic, it does have decent longevity with 5-6 sprays for about 4-5 hours. Compare that to the earlier lines, this to me, is certainly above the rest. You certainly wouldn't wear this for any special occasion or when you're planning to woe someone. Casual scent to the core, great for daytime hangouts ONLY

Smelt this one today. Initial spray made me think of lemonade. I think this would be from the lime top notes that cut through very heavily. This I wasn't so sure about. Once settled I was actually impressed. I think was a step away from the L.12.12 range which I had become so used to recognising when out and about. It was a shame that it it had a weak to moderate lasting power. Overall, not bad at all.

This one doesn't deserve the hate it gets. It's a very unique scent that gives off a vacation vibe. I think the prominent lime note in this might be what makes this scent polarizing because it does have a very unique smell at least for me. I think it's quite pleasant, not a masterpiece, but still solid for the summer and spring. I also only paid only $16 for a 40ml which is a great value. 7/10

It's an OK fragrance. Not bad, not great. Lacoste Live feels fresh, woody and a little sweet. I can really pick the licorice note here with a fresh wood base. Very casual scent, for guys who wants to keep it simple, fresh and casual. Cons for Lacoste Live is that feels very generic and boring. Projection is average, longevity on my skin is 4 to 6 hours. 2 out of 5

I received a sample vial and from the female perspective, I like it very much. I find it masculine, some fresh citrus and it has strong woody notes to it. It's got just the right amount of sweetness for a man. I would like this on my husband. It's light and easy for daytime work or casual wear. Very nice!

I really enjoy Lacoste Live, it’s a fizzy cola experience. Unfortunately it dissipates in under an hour on my skin unless I do 10 sprays. Really good gym fragrance because of the short longevity. This would be a perfect buy for teens, and people starting out their fragrance journey.

I get the whole "coca cola" vibe from this, but what this really reminds me of is Michael kors for men, it has got that classic dad aftershave smell to it.

This is made for everyday to casual wear/occassions. Got it for Christmas from my brother. Very subtle. Not as good as the Lacose Pour Homme.

I this it's juvenile vesrion of style in play with better projection and longevity. Good to wear for clubbing. Very sweet.

This cologne is not unique neither it's generic but it will get the job done for being a cheap cologne for casual wear.

Nice masculine, woody-lime fragrance but nothing spectacular. An easy dumb reach for summer but lacks longevity.

scent : 8/10 sillage : 7/10 longevity :6/10 60% day/ 40% night fragrance nice woody and fresh scent

For the price is doing alright but it's not something unique or impressive!

Marcante e intenso. Vale comprar...

It is just OK, nothing special on this one. I need to stop blind buying recommendations from GentScents and other youtuber reviewers...

This is really boring, even for a cheapie. You can do better.

We received Lacoste L!ve nearly a month ago and I was able to smell it very early... Didn't know that this is due to be released in october or november 2014!! Lacoste L!ve continues the trend of all the L.12.12. editions and I really think that they came out with a new bottle and name just because they ran out of possible colors for it to be another L.12.12. edition. I mean the last L.12.12. was another white bottle with a fluorescent yellow borders and crocodile! L!VE is not offensive! It's a totally wearable perfume. You'll rarely go wrong getting it! But what's brings it down is it's "Genericness"! And yes, It's another green, watery, citrus smell for summer! Again, not a bad thing, but, I wouldn't classify it as a "New" perfume! I smell just a faint dose of licorice and I do wish they added just a more kick to the licorice, it might have taken the scent to a whole new direction. All in all, this is a safe scent that can be boring for some (me). Try it you may like it! Btw... For a watery cologne it has a good lasting power. You'll get a good 4 to 6 hours of it. It's projection is moderate to soft but I don't find this as a bad thing because it's a sporty cologne. You don't need to fill the room with it!

It is not that great and not that bad too like its an OK type of a Perfume. I don't like it that much neither hate it as well, its just moderate. When i spray it on me, i just get lemony smell from it. After it dries down it smells like a lemon which was kept outside for like a day or two like it loses its GREAT SCENT and becomes a NORMAL SCENT, that's exactly what Lacoste Live was to me. Sillage is like too soft, the person has to be too close to smell it otherwise no. Longevity, well it stayed on me for close to 5 hours. So, My ratings - Scent - 6/10 Sillage - 5/10 Longevity - 5/10 Overall - 5.5/10

Me gusta la botella, pero deja mucho a que desear en cuanto al jugo, aparenta ser una fragancia juvenil, cuando en realidad percibo es para una persona entre 35 y 50 años. Nada original, esperaba que se pareciera a Boss unlimited, algo fresco y jovial. Un poco decepcionado de lacoste con este lanzamiento que les costó millones de dolares a P&G con tanta publicidad.

So I'm wearing this. Just a cheapie from superdrug. And it's a very linear sweet scent, aquatic woody. I think this is far nicer than the new polo blue. But the scent doesn't last long projection wise. But the smell itself is of a higher quality than the price point it's at. I prefer this to Lacoste black

It's a nice, easy going fragrance. It's not going to get any pulses racing, but it's inoffensive and easy to wear. There lies the problem, nothing exciting, nothing to go wild about. It's nice for summer days, the lime is fresh, longevity is an issue though. Safe, but a bit dull.

This just isn't for me. I do kind of like the cola vibe, but the scent wears on me, and I have a hard time really identifying notes. I did think the dry down was nice, but it took too much dislike to get me to it.

Arrived this week to Finland. I don't fancy this one bit. It's too green and somehow too strong in a really "eugh" way. I don't like the bottle either, or the colours of the bottle. Not my thing in any way.

This is even more boring then all the other Lacoste fragrances, lacks any imagination. Didn't smell bad or cheap, just very generic, citrus notes? Really?

Not impressed I think I realize now I do not like licorice in fragrances.....A wee bit disappointed

Smell 0/10 -.- .. dont even need to test the performance

Like a burned plastics and the longevity is very low

One of my least favorite colognes I've tried. I'm really not a fan of warm spice and that licorice really reminds me of a warm spice. It starts out with the citrus and lime and immediately goes to licorice. It's an odd combination. You could pull it off, and most people will just smell a standard scent - I just really don't like warm spice and licorice. Would be fine for running errands, hanging out with friends. May be a bit too juvenile for a formal setting or the office. Doesn't last long. 2.5/10.
